What else does DeAndre have in the tank to advance the Clippers during post-season?

Although DeAndre Jordan has been massive in the Clippers positive record and playoff runs, his solid rebounding capabilities and lob catching acrobatics are one dimensional. Unlike some of the league centers, DeAndre has not developed a three point shot. Jordan’s incapability of spreading the floor for the Clippers has almost diminished his role entirely ever since Chris Paul left LA.

There is no reason to build a team around DeAndre Jordan. DeAndre Jordan has not proven his capability of leading the Clippers since Blake Griffin and Chris Paul were lost. At times, he’s even looks like he doesn’t care. The Clippers failed to make the playoffs and had every opportunity to. Failure of leadership from DeAndre as the ¨center of attention¨ might be the cause of this team to lose connection.

Although Clipper Nation loves DJ’s successful career on the Clippers over his ten years, it is time to move on from the big three in Lob City for good.
