    Giving 2.5 mil to Wake Forest, in which they make millions anyway. Why can't Chris Paul donate his money to Homeless people who need houses in Houston. 2.5 mil would've had hundreds of people with homes. Chris Paul man, Big Contract from the Rockets and Fans paying his Salary. Why not give the money back to the homeless.

    No they should make it so they lost all their money for you. I mean he did take a loan to get the team. Billionaires got billionaire bills to pay.

    Thats what I was saying. They make millions exploiting these student athletes while the coach gets 5-10 million a year

    I wish he had given to underprivileged students through an external body rather than to a college basketball program, but I'm nitpicking at a great gesture. Well done.

    Wish he had given $2.5 million to keep Trevor Ariza (add $2.5 million to whatever the Rockets were offering and maybe he stays)
