  wow.

• B. Long Posted: Dec.8 at 10:34 am
  Baron Davis is breaking my heart.

• mat smith Posted: Dec.8 at 10:40 am
  wierd choice to make if it is true, hmmmm sportsman?

• Torrance Posted: Dec.8 at 10:50 am
  I don’t believe a word of this.

• Fredo Posted: Dec.8 at 10:56 am
  I believe it. BD has always had talent, but he doesn’t want to put in the work ethic to win rings. He wants to be a media mogul. Still, can’t see Bron doing that.

• Bulls Fan Posted: Dec.8 at 11:00 am
  I’m confused. Isn’t Jenny Craig a weight LOSS product? So how did this cause him to GAIN weight? This article doesn’t make sense to me.

• riggs Posted: Dec.8 at 11:22 am
  wtf? i do that for free.

• LexaB Posted: Dec.8 at 11:23 am
  If everything up there is true, the sports’ world is really foing down a bad path!!! And for 250.000 dollars only???? I mean, come on, does winning anything other than big bucks mean anything to those guys????

• watchout Posted: Dec.8 at 11:38 am
  this is sad…

• Ryne Nelson Posted: Dec.8 at 11:43 am
  The Clippers have fallen to new lows. Baron Davis’ slow start due to Jenny Craig? Please.

• ber Posted: Dec.8 at 11:43 am
  Bulls Fan, essentially they made him gain the weight to help him lose it.

• William Posted: Dec.8 at 11:48 am
  There blaming Jenny Craig on his slow start? Clips need a new coach, new attitude and some new players.

• Nathalie Posted: Dec.8 at 11:49 am
  this is vintage…

  Well, maybe he gained the weight so they could include it in his and Nash’s video. “You a$$ is so big, you don’t need suspenders.”

  Put in the work ethic? haha that’s rich

• ciolkstar Posted: Dec.8 at 12:29 pm
  I’m a fan. But I have to admit, him and Fatty Gordon might be enablers. Anyone want to hit up the In N Out?

• scott Posted: Dec.8 at 12:34 pm
  I know the facts - Baron did not gain weight to do this - he always loses weight before the season and this year he did it with Jenny Craig. He showed up for pre-season camp at his target weight. Do your homework.

• NBK Posted: Dec.8 at 12:36 pm
  just like i said before the season, marcus camby will be injured off and on all year and baron davis will just collect his paycheck. They know the clips ain’t winnin and they are loving every second of it.

• Tarzan Cooper Posted: Dec.8 at 1:02 pm
  this is all eltons fault for leaving, and eboys(THE REAL ONE) for retiring.

• Josh D Posted: Dec.8 at 1:42 pm
  Do you think he’s got The McDonalds Adverts in his mind for next?

• Joel O's Posted: Dec.8 at 1:42 pm
  Twisted thinking by the always classy Clipper organization. You’d think that after decades of suck, management would realize that they’re the ones to blame for running a joke of a franchise.

• jaywhy Posted: Dec.8 at 2:12 pm
  did the entire Knicks get paid to be fat?

• KobeWearsAPurpleThong Posted: Dec.8 at 2:37 pm
  Check out the 1st story here on Baron. Also notice the hilarious pic: http://www.redsarmy.com

• S@MIAM Posted: Dec.8 at 2:59 pm
  that is gay. why would ya? like seriously? that is seriously stupid. who the hell? im lost at words.

• Codeman Posted: Dec.8 at 3:38 pm
  I think that Baron, Starbury ,Vince and Artest should be on the same team cuz it would just be so interesting. A fatty, a couple self centred douchebags and a gangster. Oh how sweet it is………..lol

• Cizzo Posted: Dec.8 at 4:39 pm
  I would have too, for how much??????????????/

• Moose Posted: Dec.8 at 4:41 pm
  Boom Dizzle remains my favorite point guard in the NBA. I have reasons if you guys want them.

• Moose Posted: Dec.8 at 6:57 pm
  Unprovoked, I’ll give em anyways. Baron Davis is one of those rare players who is larger than life. He hasn’t won a ton of awards, he hasn’t brought home a Larry O’Brien, but his sense of humor is untouchable. The co-founder of ibeatyou.com has made at least one hilarious video that I’m sure most of you have seen, you know, the one with him and the Clippers jersey at the restaurant? Anyways, there’s always a smile on this point guard’s face. Big for his position at 6′3″, 214 pounds (almost EXACTLY Deron Williams’ dimensions), Baron can dunk over anybody, most notably Andrei Kirilenko (2006-07 playoffs). Baron is extremely fun to watch, has a warm aura about him, and that makes him a fan favorite, even with fans outside of LA. BDiddy has averaged 17.1 points, 7.2 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 2 steals per game over his ten year career (ten and a fifth, I guess, with the 2008-09 season counting). He is looking to bring the Clips back to life, the face of the franchise. Well I don’t see that happening, but Baron will keep chugging. That was an excerpt from a Hibachi piece I did a week or so ago . . . so I apologize if it’s a bit out of context.

  Codeman: You’re stupid.

• Codeman Posted: Dec.8 at 7:10 pm
  I was just kidding….I really don’t believe this story @ all.

• LAN Posted: Dec.8 at 7:37 pm
  …im lost for words… LOL

• JoeMama Posted: Dec.8 at 9:08 pm
  unbelievable, no really why would a jenny craig product make some1 gaain weight, especially a fit and active basketball player, unless the man was drinking str8 up oil i have no reason to believe that this is an excuse to baron davis’ lack of work ethic. If you were getting paid millions of bucks, some people let the money get into their head and not the fact that thy want to play basketball to get a ring, to be the best, and to rock the world with your creative moves to the baket..which I might add Baron Davis was doing plenty of in Golden State Warriors..We Want Him Back!!

• Roy Posted: Dec.8 at 9:34 pm
  Hmm… that’s not right…

• Kid Presto Posted: Dec.8 at 11:07 pm
  I’d do it.

• Todd Spehr Posted: Dec.9 at 1:19 am
  Did Baron Davis Get Paid To Be Fat Lever?

• Jack Posted: Dec.9 at 4:26 am
  I’d do it. But then again I’m not the face of a Los Angeles sports franchise, and getting paid 62.5 mill. Ah well.

• Did Baron Davis Pork Up on Purpose? | Larry Brown Sports Posted: Dec.9 at 5:10 am
  [...] The Baron Davis project with the Clippers has not exactly started off as planned. Baron began feuding with coach Mike Dunleavy about the team’s extensive playbook and regimented style mere weeks into the season. Through 20 games, the team is 4-16 and the prospects are grim. To make matters worse, Davis was the team’s marquee addition in the off-season. Problem is the guy packed on some pounds over the summer for endorsement purposes, we’re told. Yes, the guy became a Jenny Craig spokesperson and had to plump up for the part. [...]

  this story sounds like bullsh1t even more so coming from the ny daily news
