The Dallas Mavericks crowd came prepared to troll DeAndre Jordan on Wednesday
Everyone expected that the crowd at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX would be a bit raucous on Wednesday night as the Dallas Mavericks opened their doors to take on DeAndre Jordan and the Los Angeles Clippers. They didn’t disappoint as they showered Jordan with boos throughout the contest, but also in their strong trolling with signs.
Numerous fans in attendance for the game brought signs to the game with the sole intention of trolling the Clippers center. There were those fans that got straight to the point regarding their thoughts on Jordan and his perceived betrayal:

When you’re free throw percentage is as poor as Jordan’s it’s only ammo for the trolls, apparently. However, the best signs were those that instituted a bit more creativity:

I'm beginning to think this DeAndre Jordan guy isn't very well liked in these parts. pic.twitter.com/7BTPQNCsxT

That one with Chris Paul as the owner and DeAndre as the obedient dog is just about as harsh as you can be about this situation.
This storyline is going to more than likely get tiresome, particularly if people involved such as Mark Cuban continue to hold a grudge and take shots at Jordan and the Clippers. However, if it keeps inspiring creativity like this from the fans, I’d be fine with seeing this “feud” last just a little longer.
