    NBA players always deny tension - it's in their best interests if they want the best outcome for themselves. Again, its true of Kawhi, Davis, Kyrie, Butler, KAT, etc. Players, coaches, and GMs lie all the time. Why is it that here, they all must be telling the truth?

    These stories don't just come out of nowhere. "Anonymous sources" are a basic tenet of all journalism throughout history. Media members want info. Sources want to provide it and not get in trouble. It's how it all works. Was Watergate not true because the source was anonymous?

    Did you even read what you're commenting about?

    At the heart of the friction between Paul and Harden, as reported by Goodwill, is Paul's frustration with Harden's ball-dominant ways, which brought coach Mike D'Antoni's historically free-flowing offense to a standstill. The notion that D'Antoni's offense can best be described by the catch phrase "Seven Seconds Or Less" is a misnomer. "The ball finds energy" actually is the more appropriate calling card.

    The article is saying Harden prevents the free-flowing offense that D'Antoni has previously used and Paul wants. Harden has been here the last several years, so they haven't had that offense.

    The article also said the 7-seconds-or-less is a misnomer.

    So when someone reports pg13 isn’t staying in okc past a year or the rockets aren’t a realistic option for cp3. Or when cp3 hated morey:tad brown. Those don’t just come out of nowhere. Ok

    Again so many people love to feed off negativity and drama. Doesn’t matter if it’s accurate or not. It’s what makes people talk and it’s at an all time high in this era. Players always deny tension? No they don’t. Green and kd both admitted they got into an altercation. Talked about it like men and moved in.

    CP3 didn't demand a trade; his agent did.

    If CP3 was on any other team all of Clutch Fans would believe this word by word. This guy is a dirty player and has problems every where we has been. Ship him off to any city and the same crap will come out sooner or later. I route for him but if he leaves I'll go back to not liking him.

    What in the world does this post even mean. If he was on another team then that means people who follow this team enough wouldn’t know as much as that other team. :rolleyes:

    haven’t heard the name Ken Berger since like 2012...everybody’s coming out of hiding now I see

    patiently waiting for Peter Vescey to chime in with his sources...I wonder when Chris Broussard’s sources will fill him in as well

    It means half these folks think this is all fake and not real at all. There is obviously something going on and he has pissed off another team.

    If you don’t obviously follow the team enough and everything that’s been present then of course you would think the worst. There’s some kind of obsession to believe sauces and the worst. It’s pretty weird

    Isn't he still hanging out up there with the Dallas Morning News?
    I don't know. Maybe he contracted Sefkolitus and retired. Dallas could do that to you.

    Sure, but this is what let's Morey say with half-honesty that Chris Paul didn't ask him for a trade.
