Clippers still working the phones on a Jordan Farmar deal if one is out there but the feeling is he will be waived by the end of the day.

Jordan Farmar hasn’t been comfortable with the Clippers for awhile. I talked to him about his struggles last month. http://t.co/coNTzmNdbW

Jordan Farmar figured the Lakers had moved on when he signed with the Clippers. Lots of Lakers fans seem to think he spurned them.

I’m sure Jordan Farmar would have been happier staying with the Lakers and playing with Nick Young. Not sure that was an option for him.

The Clippers plan to move Jordan Farmar by the end of the day (trade or waive) and go after Nate Robinson.

As reported by Clips Nation,
“The Clippers signed Farmar using their biannual exception and expected him to be a reliable backup point guard, replacing the departed Darren Collison. Unfortunately, that dream never materialized during his short tenure with the team — per 82games, his on-off differential of -16.3 was the lowest of anyone on the team.”
Jordan Farmar averaged 7.7 points and 2.9 assists and excelled with the Lakers, the place where he won two Championship rings. A reunion to the Lakers would be most desirable to Farmar as that’s where he’s most happy.
