Source close to #Clippers tells me that DJ reached out to Doc Monday night saying that he made a mistake, which triggered chain of events
Members of DJ’s family also reached out to family members of other players over the weekend. DJ’s family wanted him to stay in LA.
Doc obviously refused, but it plays into the belief that Fegan never wanted DJ to stay with #Clippers, but rather sign with Cuban/Mavs.
Source also tells me that Fegan made an ultimatum to Doc prior to agreement w/ Mavs that LAC would have to trade CP3 to keep DJ
Fegan also reps Dwight Howard, who Cuban expected to get last summer. Belief is that Fegan was trying to do a makeup for Mavs with DJ. Feeling within DJ’s family is that Dan Fegan was pushing DJ to sign with Mavs. Fegan also represents Parsons and is tight with Cuban
Source close to #Clippers tells me that DJ reached out to Doc Monday night saying that he made a mistake, which triggered chain of events
since DJ had agreed to sign with Mavs, he hadn’t heard anything from the team before he called Doc on Monday.
One issue that didn’t help Clippers initial meeting though was Doc not having an answer when DJ asked him about getting plays drawn for him!
Man, these LA teams are incompetent at recruiting (assuming this is true). It's like they expect everyone to sign b/c of Hollywood.
If DJ signs with #Clippers now as team expects, it will go a long way in improving the working relationship between CP3 and DJ.

@EthanJSkolnick This should end with DeAndre Jordan signing a one-year, minimum deal with the Spurs

Really, the only way this can end

Sources: Sonny Weems and Phoenix Suns agree to 2-year deal worth $5.8 million
So Manu not taking the minimum like Duncan cost us having Weems... !
No. No word yet on how much Duncan will make. And Manu signing didn't impact inability to sign Weems.

The #Pistons and Joel Anthony have agreed to a two-year, $5MM deal: hoopsrumors.com/2015/06/johnso… pic.twitter.com/MN1PORobpF
Yikes. If Joel gets 5 mil, it's going to be slim pickings for a center at the min pricetag.
Stop. West already proved that isn't true. Either way, the pickings were slim to begin with.
Yes. Yes
Centers are never cheap.... Spurs need like two of them.
It always was slim pickings. It's a pipe dream that they can find a good center likely to contribute.
Again, starting the Larry Sanders campaign.

Free agent guard Justin Holiday is signing with the Hawks, a source told Yahoo Sports
I like Justin Holiday, he should be a solid player. Good thing he ended up w/ Bud.
People, remember the cap is increasing significantly next year.
The Suns will sign Ronnie Price to a one-year deal for the veteran minimum.
He was with the Suns during the 2011-12 season. Price was close to being 100 percent healthy back in April, so he'll be ready to play. He's likely just going to be an emergency guy.
