"For all the new faces, the Clippers will only go as far as veteran Baron Davis takes them. Davis, a Hall of Fame talent who's spent half his career underachieving, can put L.A. in the playoffs if he's engaged or in the dumpster if he loafs. Midsummer reports weren't good, as sources said the 6-3 point guard was up to 260 pounds, 45 pounds above his listed playing weight."
This is from ESPN Insider. I dont know whether to believe it or not. Who gains 45 pounds in 2 months?

Yeah I call BS on this article
BD has been working most the summer. This is just more evidence of ESPN bias.

This is BS
My friend just saw him SM last week and said Baron looked like he dropped 10-15 pounds.
FA in 2010.
never trust an article
when it has the words “sources say.”
Even the Clippers, those longtime losers, thought they could be a player this summer.
How is this not slander?

He looks fine in those pictures
hell it looks like he lost weight. Boussard is like a little baby that just wants attention.

Thats a load of crap.
Davis from the pictures of two weeks ago does not look like 260. Typical espn dumb $hits.
Obese Baron
Last I saw of Baron he looked more like 280, once again he is taking the upcoming season to his mouth filled with food. Trade the bum, he would have no takers, cut him there has to be a weight clause in his contract.
Normally I don't mind Broussard, but this is just another case of Clipper Ignorance
I remember when Broussard was on Mike and Mike back before free agency started and he was reporting the same thing from his “sources”. Since then we’ve learned: Baron was in Africa for like 2 weeks in the summer, showed up at Summer League and didn’t look 260, and there’s the pics above from like 2 weeks ago. I can’t believe Baron was in Africa gaining 45 pounds and then lost most of it before Summer League. Think Broussard was asked to write something about the Clippers and just wrote the last thing he was provided. And since he hasn’t thought about the Clippers in like 2 months and didn’t want to do any research on it… this is what we get.
He definitely doesn't look fat in this pic

More pics, anybody?
Baron doesn’t keep a low profile. I’m sure there’s a picture out there that was taken yesterday, or at least the day before.
It’s hard to believe that Broussard would broadcast something that’s so falsifiable. Couldn’t he have done a LITTLE BIT of research? Unless he’s right about it, that is.
"i know huh........freakin clippers man.....its like a wild ride rooting for this team....gotta love em....(sometimes) lol" In GrIfFin We TrUsT
From Baron's twitter:
“260 lbs. < – faulty insider info… Hi hatersss! Lol”
here is a link http://twitter.com/Baron_Davis/status/22034888389

I saw Baron at summer league Clips vs Dleague select
I was about 3 feet from the guy when he came up to my aisle to talk to John Lucas,,,, Baron looked like the same ol Baron haha
And that is SL
he probably doesn’t start his full workouts until later in the summer.

And this is even better..
via Baron’s twitter: "Workout time!!! Back in the hoop lane… "
It’slike he’s almost reading what we’re saying LOL
anybody find some of these a bit odd?
