Ok...so I'm thinking...and maybe too much

But with the deal back on (because we never thought they were off in the first place), could there have been strategy to DA saying that he'd pick Vinny Del Negro for a coach?

I think the Clippers essentially leaking everything played into Danny's hand because now they look stupid for crawling right back. So, do you think by saying he would pick VDN, he was essentially saying he had no use for Doc whatsoever -- seeing as how VDN sucks.

You put a decent coach like Doc up against a terrible coach like VDN -- you make that actual comparison -- then you might be willing to give the world for that coach, right?

If you put a 2000 ford taurus up against a 1985 toyota corrola, you kinda feel better about picking that taurus...right? Idk
