but i can't decide whether this was smart or shady, sometimes good business moves walk the line between the two. i'm thinkin it was said mainly to dissuade any team from doing it and portland doesn't really have any intention of taking legal action if another team signs him (at least i hope not), cause they would surely lose.

Pretty sure that it is illegal for them to attempt to stymie Darius' efforts to gain employment in the NBA by threatening a lawsuit to deter teams from hiring and playing him.
I think it is now the DUTY of some Western Conference team to sign Darius to a 10-day contract and play him a couple games. Hell, put him on the Knicks for a few games so he and Q can get their martian antenna head bump going on again.
