And why exactly is DeAndre Jordan worth $40 Mil again?

His age and potential upside?

Or better yet because he can get it from teams willing to pay it (the whole you're worth what they're willing to pay you thing).

He isn't, but he's been playing pretty decent this year. At least he didn't completely burn out. He looks hungry out there and is providing pretty much the extent of his potential thus far in his career. Really good shot blocker and rim protector. Decent rebounder. Gets out on the break with the best of them.

Because we are in the age of the specialist, so you don't have to be a well rounded player anymore to get paid big money.

You could do a lot worse with your money, like Charlie V and Ben Gordon.

It was a decent signing for LAC to build for the future.. so long as CP3 stays.

Speaking of Kwame. Not sure if this fits more the OT thread or in here, so I'm posting in both and the wrong one can be deleted.

So everybody gonna just act like this didn't happen? I know somebody somewhere, Laker fans, Bobcat fans.....Matrix, somebody gotta have something to say about my man Kwame Brown saying he taught Andrew Bynum everything he knows and of course the gem of all gems.

"That was my young fella," Brown told Mike Bresnahan of the Los Angeles Times. "I taught him everything he knows. I'm one of the better defenders in the league and we played against each other every day in practice. I told him if you can score against me, you can score on anyone."

Does LeBron look to pass more late, or does he always look to pass and I notice it more because someone of his status is expected to score?

Hmm, either you're an NBA editor, or jacking for tweets.

Wizzleman, you damn sure have a ton to account for by stealing someone else's tweets and posting them here as your original thoughts.

I'd like an explanation.

1st off lets try using the word tweets in the singular sense, since that's the only one I've used from someone else. I always check espn.com during and after the games and I look at the tweet section and this particular time I saw a question that I would also like to know so I posted it up here to see what everyone else thought....What's wrong with that ???

Got to at least use the quote tags so we know it not your own thought.
