Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
Did teams just get tired of his poor free throw shooting? He went from being part of a big three in LA to being traded to a garbage Knicks team.

Knicks all da way
Re: Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
Shut the hell up. Knicks are tanking the right way for once, not half ass. Plus he's improved his FT so much. Hope he continues to tutor the blockness monster

Because he isn't that good?

Basically this.
He’s managed to get a bit of undue hype around his career that’s gotten him paid and talked about more than he should have been. He’s not bad obviously, but he was never a star caliber player. “Big 3” is supposed to imply 3 stars. Not sure why exactly it was ever applied to the Clippers.
But, hey good for him

He is a low IQ high athleticism player that is no longer an elite athlete.

I was never a fan of his game, and he has lost a lot of athleticism and defensive prowess, but I will give him credit for adding to his game.
I think he'd be a great back up C on a good team, but I doubt he is okay with being that at this point in his career. I'd honestly take someone like Robin Lopez over him, yet he couldn't get a start on the Bulls for the majority of the year.

(no Dirk homer)
Re: Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
I always believed he was a very good help defender, so I was very surprised when I watched him play in Dallas. He seems like an empty stats guy. He is not bad, he just not as good as his stats.

Re: Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
He played zero defense in Dallas and only cares about statpadding defensive rebounds.

I go HAM
Re: Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
If I recall correctly he wants too much money?

Good college starter
Re: Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
He literally pushes his own teammates out of the way to get an uncontested rebound.
Would you want that kind of player as a teammate?

Speaking of DeAndre Jordan's "pushing," did you notice that he also pushes his teammates, thus helping them block other player's (who shall remain nameless) shots? Here, take a look. What should we call this, a "hockey block?"
In all seriousness, DJ's lost a good amount of athleticism, and that along with brute size and strength, was all his rather limited game was ever based on. But I will say, for a number of years, he was one of the most explosive leapers for a center that the NBA has ever seen. Right up there with Dwight Howard, David Robinson, and Shaq for pure explosive dunks.

Titles are overrated
Re: Why does no one want DeAndre Jordan?
Deandre isnt a bad Ft shooter anymore. Im not sure what happened but he shoots over 70% for the year and 79% for the Knicks.
