Pretty good listen. I did not realize that Redick had a house in Austin. So he literally did drive a car to Houston. I love how he couldn't believe how slow the media was on this.

I haven't finished yet.

But Redick claims that Jordan and Griffin got dinner in Houston on Tuesday. And nobody noticed. I also think it's funny that he said Ramona Shelburne texted him on Tuesday asking if he wanted her to clean up his F- grade quotes about the Clippers free agency, and he said he still believed everything he said. He basically laughed it off, just like I imagine I would if Ramona texted me.

He also cracked up about the Paul Pierce emoji thing. He said that Paul Pierce has really weird emoji apps on his phone, like ones he's never heard of. So he is still unsure about what happened, even after talking to Pierce.

Redick's favorite tweet: Bleacher Report tweeting the video of the Wolf of Wall Street mash-up. LINK

I just love how Reddick talks about the internet in general. He likes the drama just as much as we do.

He said that the Clippers had one major goal in Free Agency. Retain Jordan. Now they've done that.

He was right losing Jordan and having no cap space absolutely fricked them. He also discusses the Houston series very candidly. I tend to like Redick, except for the whole abortion contract thing.

Yeah. He is really a straight shooter who you can tell wants to be very honest. He even had a spot in the interview where he tried not to give a couple of names, and he ended up doing it.

Zach Lowe: "Do you feel like DeAndre owed [the Mavericks] a phone call."

Redick: "That's a great question. Probably, no."

He expands. He talks about how that usual communication works with the agents (on both ends), and that players aren't used to making those calls. He said he has no idea what Feigen's role is at this point though.

He actually said that the Clippers tried to go back on their first offer to him (Redick) at one point. He said people go back on their offers and agreements.

I enjoyed when he was discussing when the Clippers were debating on trading for him and how Sterling didn't want to do the trade and one of the possible reasons was because he is white

Yeah. That was great. Zach Lowe is saying that he's never been invited to the ESPYs.

JJ brought up how he was nominated for an ESPY, and they revoked his nomination.

"I got a DUI. I pretty much did everything wrong before the draft. I had a back injury, and I got a DUI."

Such a straight shooter.

Never was a huge fan of Redick but he sees like a good dude

Also, regarding Shelbourne...he totally gave himself up as her "source"

Not sure if anyone followed her/saw her on ESPN on Wednesday night but she kept reporting stuff from a source that left the meeting. Well Redick left the meeting.

Plus, Redick also mentions her about the F-minus stuff and how she texted him asking if he wanted her to clean it up

oops

I know a few people like Redick. They always seems to know everything, but they also seem to tell everyone everything.

I had a feeling he wasn't the typical uptight Duke stickler who had no personality when he got bused for weed his freshman year in the dorms. I knew he had potential

Cuban said he contacted Jordan on Tuesday asking to meet up. Jordan said he was on a date.

I've gone from really hating JJ in college to loving him in the NBA. Nothing to do with his play either.
