    Guys, y'all can't keep calling out legitimate journalists with extended track records. This is a dangerous slope and downright wrong if we're being honest. Goodwill is a trusted reporter and should be thought of as so.

    I don't get it. He was trying to get into the Clippers locker room to defend/protect his teammates. Got any other examples of him being a "horrible teammate"?

    C'mon... you're not new to this. Stop acting like a rookie. What do you want Morey to say? The fact that he said what he did... THEN to have this leak out (Yahoo already knowing damn well what Morey said this morning)... makes it EVEN MORE believable.

    Would it make sense for CP3's camp to leak something like this after hearing Morey's attempt at damage control this morning?

    Absolutely.

    There's NOTHING but smoke out there, yet yall are skeptical?

    Maybe this thing can be repaired... but Paul would rather be playing somewhere else right now.

    Does it make sense? How does making us look desperate to make a deal and lowering his already low value help Paul?

    could also be his way of saving himself from looking bad trying to turn it on the rockets to "force" him out.

    so many ways this can play out.... i hate it

    I wish I had to deal with an albatross of a contract like CP3 does.

    Do you think a rockets GM, or most GMs, are in a position to be picky about superstars?

    I don’t at all.

    Exactly.

    The owners need to take control of their league. It’s getting ridiculous. Lock the players out and setup the bargaining agreement line the NFL.

    It would be worth it in the long run. CP3 signs a massive deal he’s not even worth and then still wants to hold the team hostage? Screw that. The Rockets shouldnt be forced to honor the contract when he isn’t.
