If you are looking for some pretty entertaining reading, check out my boy Marcus Thompson's article in today's Contra Costa Times.
Evidently, while the Warriors were hanging out in LA before their matchup with the Lakers, Golden State's
Stephen Jackson got the chance to hang out with his former teammate and best friend Baron Davis.
Stephen Jackson got the chance to hang out with his former teammate and best friend Baron Davis.
And guess what topic dominated their conversations: Davis going back to the Warriors!
"That's all we talked about," Jackson said. "I went to his house, spent some time with his mom and his grandmother. He wants to come back. And if he wants to come back, I want him back."
Seriously, how funny would that be?
After all the posturing and back-and-forth this past summer between the Clippers and the Warriors (don't forget, LA also signed Kelenna Azubuike to an offer sheet that GS eventually matched), the two teams would then turn around and orchestrate basically a "do over". It would be the ultimate ironies of ironies.
But don't start counting your contract swaps just yet. The reasons why this move is so unlikely to happen are numerous, if not infinite. They are, at the very least, too numerous to list here. Plus, most of them are so obvious, it would actually be a waste of time, but the story still makes for a great read!

I heard the rumor on the radio this morning. If it's true, the Clippers should make Davis stay for his contract term. That does not mean the Clippers have to play him. No use giving away money.
