In heading to Dallas for a game Monday night, the Clippers and center DeAndre Jordan figure to have more hate heaped upon them than usual because of all the drama that happened over the summer, when Jordan backed out on a verbal deal to sign with the Mavericks, only to re-sign with the Clippers.

This will be the Clippers’ second trip to Dallas since then; they lost there 118-108 on Nov. 11. There were lots of insults hurled Jordan’s way that night, and some not-so-flattering signs held by Mavericks faithful. Dallas owner Mark Cuban also chimed in and doled out some not-so-flattering one-liners about Jordan to reporters.

Coach Doc Rivers isn’t sure if that discord will be as prominent as it was in November.

“I have no idea,” he said. “That’s really on them. For us, it should be another game, but I’m sure the crowd will remember forever. But I don’t think it’s going to be as big of a deal as it was the first time.”

Jordan apparently doesn’t give a darn.

“It was just another game the first game,” he said. “I really don’t care about it anymore.”

The Mavericks are in sixth-place in the West, the Clippers are in fourth.

The game begins at 5:30 p.m.on Fox Sports West.
