Maybe DJJ wanted to be first option, and Klay most likely coming in would make him a bench piece? Which he didn’t want to be?

Maybe the guy just wanted to be in LA.

Based on the playoffs I assume DJJ jr is all nba first team defense.

Naji is the better shooter for sure, 80% free throw shooter and his form on 3pter is way better than Djjs. He’s also a better passer and has a better floater game. The only area where he’s worse is athleticism and dunking.

Did you just leave your NBA finals team in order to join a team that won’t sniff the NBA finals in a long time for very little money?
DJJ takes the L here hands down. I mean Mavs still get an L but what the hell is this.

Yes, keep him away from Luka and Jokic

lol, damn sure we could’ve matched that. Klutch must be getting him something else under the table in LA

I didn’t realize how strict the new CBA is, and I now understand why the Clippers didn’t want to give PG the max and being in the 2nd apron. If a team remains in the second apron for two of the following four seasons, its first-round pick seven years out won’t just be frozen, it will automatically be moved to the end of that first round – or the 30th pick.
OGTypohh
Going to look bad if they don’t get Klay
AldiaWasRight
Sorry Luka
Minute_Key_297
Whyyyyyy he played so well with Kyrie an Lukaa
ggendo
Do you guys think the mavs FO runs all their trades past Luka first? Cant imagine he’s super happy about losing DJJ looking at their spectacular chemistry last season
Atlanta-Anomaly
Now add Derozan and the Clippers will still be solid

Mavs?
Stein called it
Okay Clippers
Damn, that’s a hell of a loss for the Mavs
Lob city is back baby
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This probably hurts their chances at resigning Paul George.
The guy who clamped PG just replaced him
Get your bag Derrick, and thanks for everything
I wonder why Dallas couldn’t retain him given they basically gave Naji the same contract.
Pretty interesting that the mavericks went with Marshall over DJJ
I thought he couldn’t sign for 11 more days ??
Damn that’s a great pickup
What the fuck. What made him able to sign this with the Clips and not the Mavs lol
Let’s see how he plays when Luka isn’t on the court.
Still 10 million ain’t bad
Well, that’s not a terrible backup plan, PG is definitely going to Philly
So DJJ basically chose LA over Dallas, or did Dallas choose Naji over DJJ?
Thanks I hate it.
One of the few teams where DJJ works on offence but why didn’t the mavs just pay him over the other guy
15 days? More like 15 minutes
Seems like he chose LA
this must have been pre-planned with the agent change, was saying it’d be dumb as hell if he didn’t have something lined up. bummer to see him go
I’m okay with this.
[Wait until Kyrie and Luka pull off this move ](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CJb89kMVEAAIEgO.jpg)
9 years later and we will get our payback!
happy he got paid. well deserved.
This kinda seems like a steal
