    Have you never left a company your entire life for a higher salary or position? It's honestly weird the standards people put on others they never apply to themselves.

    Lebron, KD and Harden left cuz they wanna win and unlike MJ and Curry they didnt have power teams built by their GM. If staying on a single team is so celebrated where are the parades for Damian Lillard?

    Kobe for example ran Shaq out of town even if Shaq was the guy who got the team their 3 peat. Is that honorable? lol

    Yeah I've genuinely never understood people who have a beef with that. Some players want to be a 1 team player, good for them. For most people there's no such thing as "loyalty" to work unless it's either your family business, your own business, or you've been there so long that it might as well be, that's longer than anybody plays any pro sport tbh.

    Well, this is a Rafael Stone thread and he did work for only one Company named the Houston Rockets so far.

    His players have not......

    And if you have to include beef and companies, then yeah, it would be if Michael Jordan first verbally hand shook with Adidas or Reebok and ran away to Nike in the last second..... (Movie: AIR a little altered.)
