It's Calvin Murphy, so take it fwiwLate last week rumors began to spread that LeBron James' mom (PICTURES), Gloria James, had sex with her son's teammate Delonte West. The bizarre story claimed to explain the Cleveland Cavaliers' poor play and unexpected collapse in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. While an attorney for King James has formally denied the "idiotic and 'off the wall'" speculation (which appears to have absolutely no legitimate foundation), one former player is speaking out to the contrary.
Basketball Hall of Famer Calvin Murphy took to the airwaves Wednesday night and became the most high-profile person to date to back the rumors. "It ain't no rumor," he told a Houston ESPN Radio station, calling the claims "absolutely true" and "absolutely horrifying." He went on:
"Unfortunately, my sources in the NBA tell me that it's absolutely true. My sources, and they're legit, tell me that the only people that didn't know it was happening was LeBron and me."Murphy, who was once accused of sexually abusing five of his 14 daughters (who were fathered with nine different women, only one of whom he married), says James "may take time off." He also claims "there was another party... that West wasn't the only" man involved in the alleged affair.

Who's betting that it was Shaq?
Joe Tait...
Rajon Rondo...
Josh Cribbs...
Eric Wright...
In all seriousness, I don't know about anyone else but I'm totally cutting Lebron a lot of slack for his performance in the ECF because of this. All trolling aside, I would not be able to concentrate hanging around dudes who I just found out ed my mom.
And not only that, but did the Eiffel Tower and other manuevers on her.
Either you're a professional or you aren't.
That avatar is so creepy.![]()
Ever notice? The eyes follow you no matter where you are in the room.
Oh, come on we're talking about human beings here, not robots. If Delonte ing West ed my mom I would not be able to keep it out of my mind for two seconds no matter how hard I tried, and if I had to see his ugly ass all the time and know he ed her, there's no way I could function. It's easy to say "Forget it." It's another thing to do that. I mean that's worse than a family member dying because there's nothing weird or disgusting about that and its not ongoing. You know how to handle that, this ? ing awkward times one million. You know it was Delonte West, right?
Dude, my brain would only see Delonte bending my mom over a counter every time I looked at his ass. Super ed up.
BS it's not like they raped his mom.
She's a consenting adult. So your mom is a , grow up Lebronze![]()
So your mom could all your coworkers and everyone could know about it and it wouldn't affect your ability to work with them or concentrate?

if she's was a . No it would not bother me a bit. Like someone said, there are professionals and there are unprofessionals
No offense, but I don't think there's a one percent chance you or anyone would be able to say "Oh, well" and move on like nothing happened. Unless you were a sociopath or something. It's part of being human. Plus if your Lebron you would also be worried the whole world would find out. Sports fans crack me up sometimes. They always make it seem so simple.
Dorthy Mantooths a saint!
How the human brain works for sports fans:
"Ok Lebron go press the off button on your brain and go play basketball. Did you press it? Ok, now go out there and kill 'em tiger!"

Yeah, it is easy to forget these are real human beings, not some idealized personas who exist solely to play sports and entertain us.
And humans deal with tough stuff in a lot of different ways.
For some, stuff like this is fuel. For others, it just destroys them.
No telling -- if there is even any truth to this (still sounds outrageous and implausible to me) -- how it may have affected him.
