Dunleavy: Brand agreed to deal
Residue from the situation with Elton Brand, the longtime Clipper who signed with the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, spilled onto the airwaves. David Falk, Brand's agent, and Clippers Coach Mike Dunleavy went on 710 ESPN radio, voicing their sides. An agitated Dunleavy said that he had text messages from Brand confirming a deal to stay with the Clippers and that Falk later requested a bigger contract of $120 million for Brand. "He was trying to scorch the earth," Dunleavy said. Earlier, Falk had said: "If there would have been a deal, Elton would be in L.A. right now."

Who leaves LA for Philly? lol I'm joking. If I was the 76ers, I'd cross my fingers and hope he doesn't get hurt again.

$120 million? LOL. Brand is getting old and he was injured. Smells like the equivalent to the Andruw Jones deal that the LA Dodgers signed. BURNED! Got to love these agents.

I still maintain that he is not a franchise player.
He's GREAT....20/10......but he's not bringing you a title by himself
- and hes coming off a major injury.
But the bottom line is BUSINESS....
verbal chit-chat from arguably THE WORST organization in the NBA over the last 25 years is nothing I would hang MY hat on....
so when the $ opportunity came up to get out & the team which you've been with for several years is dragging their feet....
f them.

I can't help but wonder if HEAT FAN and The DEE of Dees are one in the same. Both are moronic self-proclaimed Miami Heat fans without a lick of even casual basketball acumen and throw out nothing but juvenile insults and worthless one-liners.

Who cares. YOu let this one slip away. Besides, hes going from a pretender to a contender. Philly got hot the second half because they are clicking. A guy like Brand will do nothing but strengthen them in the East. There was one team that had a better record then the 76ers in the East in the second half... the Celtics...
And we all know how that worked out...
A guy like Brand (if healthy) will take them to the next level.
