    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Elton Brand could make a decision on his future within the "next 24 to 48 hours", according to a report by ESPN.com's Marc Stein.

    Many around the league expect Brand to verbally commit to returning to the Clippers, allowing him to play alongside buddy Baron Davis.

    Brand can earn more money in Golden State but could show his loyalty to Los Angeles by taking less to remain in town.</div>

    Brand would be an idiot if he didn't sign back with the Clippers now that Davis is there.

    lol, the key word could. Elton Brand could make his decision on his future 4 weeks from now.

    True, but I'm just guessing that that means there is a pretty good chance that he will decide soon.

    What would be the point of waiting that long?

    I know I was just noting the word choice. Could just implies there is an option.

    The sentence `Elton Brand could sign a contract with the Clippers.` Doesn`t imply such a thing is likely compared to other options, just says its possible.

    Joey Crawford could retire tomorrow. (hopefully :S)
