That didn't take long did it??!! The news broke late Monday night that Baron Davis abruptly opted out of his contract with Golden State. Immediate thoughts on where he'd land? Well, I thought maybe the obvious-- the Lakers, Suns, Spurs, Mavericks, maybe the Celtics-- you know the contenders. Then less than 24 hours we find out he's signing with the Clippers? Wow-- I was shocked. I know he's an L.A. native, but why the Clippers??!! That franchise is hexed. No matter who they draft or whoever they bring in, they find a way to lose. And if Baron Davis is like any other Clipper, he'll probably get hurt at some point and miss a ton of games. I wish him and the team luck, though. I'd love to see them give the Lakers a run for their money.
