JORDANCLIPPERS MAY HAVE VIOLATED LAWBy Signing Superstar4 Hours Ago



EXCLUSIVE

The war over DeAndre Jordan may be FAR from be over -- because the Dallas Mavericks may have a solid legal case against the Clippers for stealing DeAndre out from under them ... well placed sources tell TMZ Sports.

We're told ... Steve Ballmer may have crossed the line by getting Jordan into a room with other Clippers players AFTER Jordan made a handshake deal with Mark Cuban and the Mavericks.

Our sources say ... Cuban has a solid argument against Jordan that Mark JUSTIFIABLY relied on his handshake deal -- and passed over other free agents who could've filled the center position.

In legalese, it's called promissory estoppel ... translation, detrimental reliance.

Even more ominous for the Clippers, we're told Cuban and the Mavericks could take Ballmer to court for intentionally and brashly trying to undo the handshake deal.

We're told Ballmer's play for Jordan -- with the help of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and others -- bordered on badgering. In fact, Blake Griffin joked on Instgram by posting a picture of a chair blocking a door.

Plus, sources tell us the Clippers told Jordan to turn off his phone during the meeting so they could "get the deal done."

We're told that may be far from a joke and there are even reports that Jordan's own agent was prevented from attending the meeting.

Our NBA sources say a case could be made for intentional interference with prospective economic relations.

The question -- will Cuban go after Ballmer in court? If he does, it could set and change the tone of the way negotiations are handled in the future.

Man Cuban better eat this L and move the fukk on, if he spends all this time in court instead of his team then it shows where his head is really at. DeAndre never wanted to leave he just wanted to be courted(like every big free agent) and he realized he made a mistake, granted it was at the worst possible time but what's done is done. He wanted to chill with his teammates at his home so they need to stop with the kidnapping/badgering bullshyt.

Will the same laws be applied whenever a team representative or gm tells a player he won't be traded then that player gets traded? That happens literally every season. Can those laws be executed when a manager is told from a team their client option will be picked up or they will sign their extension next season just so next season comes and the player is let go? That always happens too. But that is always brushed off as " the nature of the business" but when a player says :whoa: these clowns want to run to federal court? :francis:

In business there are risk and you play the game. If this was done every time a owner went back on they word to a player would be nothing but lawsuits. Deandre did nothing wrong imo. They just need to tweak how free agency is done.
