Granger decides to sign with clippers

[lmbebo]

Spurs didn't turn their back to Juwan Howard after he signed with the Jazz.

You mean Josh?

Juwan has been with wheeled around Miami for a few years now.

[Dverde]

Yeah, Josh Howard.

[heyheymymy]

That's what I was thinking. The clippers will welcome him with open arms....except two guys who will be PISSED.

lol at granger when he is rotting on the bench b/c dudley or someone stepped up upon grangers arrival just to spite him, and barnes absolutely locker-room-cancer mean mugging him every chance he gets, and watching the spurs in the WCF at his cliche LA home with his tackle box by his side realizing he didn't have the skill left in the tank to even hang with san antonio anyway and finally getting closure from the fallout of getting dumped by ECF champs because he was too much of a lazy complacent to follow his knee rehab schedule.

I don't understand how you guys are calling out Granger, this was literally the most obvious move ever. Sure, Granger would love to win a championship, but as a role player barely getting time and barely getting crunch time? I'm guessing not.

The clippers aren't favorites by any means but they definitely have a shot at getting to the finals if things fall their way, granger has a clear path to a starting gig and possibly even a permanent one should he perform well, and the best passing point guard in the game happens to be on the team. It would have been stupid to pick the spurs ahead of the clippers just cuz Pop is a good coach and we have a little better chance for a championship.

I would think winning a championship would be rather important. If not, why move? Obviously his playing time is important as well. He chose LA for a reason.

It's obviously important, but he's no where near ready to accept himself being nothing more than a bit contributor probably. The clippers provide everything he wants tbh

It sure must be nice getting Danny Granger to sign with the Spurs. That did happen I heard, at least that's what The Writer said.

Either way, I'm here for you.

Most overrated free agent to the most overrated team in the nba..

So Granger now claims playing time wasn't a factor in his decision. So basically, he's in L.A. for the nightlife, the spotlight, and getting head from a Kardashian. End of story.

"I just want to play, have fun, shoot some 3s, throw some lobs, go celebrate.''

Can't throw lobs on the Spurs.

[SpurPadre]

Can't throw lobs on the Spurs.

Yup, that's part of the spotlight. He prefers lobs over Championships.

[exstatic]

Can't throw lobs on the Spurs.

Can't win LoBs with the Clippers.

Tbh I'm taken aback that Danny Granger would prefer living in LA to living in SA just for those reasons. I'd think he'd choose playing for a classy team with a classy fan base. There's plenty to do in and around San Antonio. There's the Alamo, the HF Tower, Fiesta Texas, Sea World, Bass Pro Shops, Las Palapas with the macho burrito... Pick and Pull over off Zarzamora... the flea market.. I could go on and on.

Well played sir.

[heyheymymy]

How will he ever find the time to fit in some lobs when he's so busy being too lazy to stick to his knee rehab schedule?

After you said pick-n-pull I was done

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Danny Granger was all set to make his debut with the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday night before coach Doc Rivers accidentally left his new acquisition's name off his list of active players.

Off to a good start, I see...

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Kind of surprised it had nothing to do with playing time.

[cjw]

It totally did. He knows the weakest spot on the Clippers is the wing, and the deepest on the Spurs is the wing. Actually has a chance to start there if things go right. He saw what happened to TMac last year (granted he signed just for the playoffs) and wanted nothing of that.

[tholdren]

Danny granger... Its so typical for these NBA players. Hood rich in intelligence.

[ElNono]

Granger said he isn't worried about his role, albeit while noting he has "always been a starter in my career."

this wouldn't fly with Pop

[Spur|n|Austin]

BAD MOVE: Newly acquired and perceived buyout prize Granger planned to make his debut on Saturday for the Clippers. Due to an apparent clerical error, however, the appearance on the court never materialized. His name was handwritten on the roster given to the officials before the opening tip. Not circled, he was listed as inactive. Circled players are active for games. Nevertheless, prior to the action taking place, Granger addressed the media and appeared pleased with his opportunity in Los Angeles. Also, Rivers met with the press beforehand and said the most recent addition to the team would not start immediately. Still, and equally important, Rivers did not rule out the option of having Granger on the floor to start games with Paul, Griffin & Co. in the near future.

Granger chewing on those empty promises. Playe under 4 minutes in the first half.

about to post that, all that "bench help" added by the Clippers, Doc isn't using any of it tonight.

[Hoops Czar]

I don't know how anyone can pass judgement based off of his first game with his new team. If he were a Spur, it would be "Give him time to learn the system" and "He's still taking minutes away from Ayres".
