The Cap Reality of DeAndre Jordan's Free Agency

Forget about whether or not Jordan meets arbitrary qualifications of what a "max player" should be--the Clippers need to pay whatever the price is to keep him this summer.

DeAndre Jordan will get a max contract offer from the Clippers. It will probably be one of the first things to leak on July 1st--"DeAndre Jordan has signed a 5 year/$110 million contract to stay with the Los Angeles Clippers". Of course, it's not guaranteed. Jordan is certain to solicit some pretty big offers--he's one of the best centers in the league, he's young, and a lot of callers will come after him with dollars to spend.
