    I know the Clips have announced that these two second round picks have agreed to contracts, but are they guaranteed contracts? Can we cut them if they don't measure up in training camp? Anyone know?

    In most cases they are guaranteed for one year. Taylor might be able to be dropped if he does not perform during training camp. But Jordan is more than likely guaranteed for 1 year with team option for the second.

    I don't think they are dano- I'm pretty sure the Clippers have the flexibility to cut them if they don't perform well.

    If i'm not mistaken, if you cut one of them, since they already signed a contract, you can cut them from your roster but their salary still counts against your salary cap.

    taylor made the team after last night.

    Jordan has some nice atheleticism, but doing the robot after a slam dunk over chris mihm??? needs some attitude adjusting imo

    IT WAS FUN WATCHING IT....


    MATTER OF FACT I WAS REACTING THE SAME EXACT WAY LMAOOOOO...

    POOR MIHM ALWAYS GETS POSTERIZED AGAINST US... FROM WILCOX TO DeAndre Jordan...
    I miss Wilcox... Bring him back! Wilcox - Thorton - Davis has ESPN Top 10 Highlights ALL OVER IT.

    Oh well, hope Jordan can fill the void Wilcox left.

    The way I understand it, second round pick contracts are never guaranteed.
    They have to make the team. Jordon is in. Taylor's chances are now much better with Jason Williams retiring. He showed great athleticism last night and some shooting as well. He made a few mistakes early on, but once he got it going, he was unstoppable. He only needs a little more seasoning. He's a keeper. Might be the best second round the Clippers have ever had.

    They willl both make it, we need them both. Jordon is the project and we need taylor to be a back up in a worse case scenerio. Taylor did look though.
