Wojnarowski: Paul bends to King James’ rule

[ducks]

What did LeBron do exactly that was so wrong? If the Cavs built around James the way the Thunder are building around Durant then LeBron easily would have stayed regardless of what Miami was cooking up. The only guilty member in LeBron leaving Cleveland is the Cavs organization.

cavs built best record in the regular season
the other players and james quit and stopped acting
they got that from james

[Will Hunting]

This is such nonsense. New Orleans has a special relationship with Chris Paul. The Hornets have done nothing in the past three years to indicate they know what they are doing. Wasting time waiting for a couple of pieces to fall into their lap, Paul has decided not to play second-fiddle and get the move on towards an NBA CHAMPIONSHIP.

In case you haven't noticed, this is what caring about winning looks like. He's hardly the first, but he is the first after Lebron James. He wants a team that can challenge the Heat. There's nothing wrong with that.

NBA Cares promos are not what Paul is after for the rest of his career.

Lookit you fat jobless stick, your posts suck and don't contribute anything.

[InRareForm]

Woj is right even tho every article is about bickering about ass players lol

[TheGreatest23]

Heaven forbid LeBron having an off night.

there's a difference between having a night off and quitting.

How is 27 9 and 7 quitting..?

Not to mention 27 19 and 10 in the final game?

so the Thunder role players are better then the Cavs role players?

You must have not watched the games. I can understand why you post stats as your arguement.

I did watch the games and he wasn't the same physically (elbow; or for w/e reason). But he still competed and was the most productive player on the floor.

That "for w/e reason" was him quitting stick.

[MaNu4Tres]

Get a clue.

[atxbuttknocker]

He quit, we got the tape, then he ran from the challenge. There was no excuse, he just quit. Similar to Duncan in the Olympics, he quit too, on his country, then vowed never to represent his country again, similar to the act James pulled on Cleveland. His excuse, I don't like Euro rules... So you clowns role with that, but he still quit.

[atxbuttknocker]

"role" with that

Coming up with assumptions out of thin air once again. Duncan did not quit, that team SUCKED in terms of chemistry. A.I. sucked the life out of that team and Duncan's talent wasn't as utilized as could be. He didn't quit, he just decided that it wasn't worth the wear and tear...Lebron on the other hand, quit, per se.

[panic giraffe]

Not exactly, but comparing when LeBron's Cavs when he was 21 to the Thunder right now- the Thunder is younger with more potential. OKC has lots of assets, young players, they're taking their time basically.

and it was bron's fault that the cavs we're trying to rush it.

[panic giraffe]

The San Antonio Heat fans are extremely sensitive about their Lebron. Gooooooo Heat!!!!!

man this sa heat is too played out. give it up. you got your main man gasol and his number 2 kobe, so stop ing about the heat.

sadly though, i would rather both teams lose when the lakers play the heat. both are just sad.

[Muser]

But LeBron wanted those moves.

I'm not saying Duncan quit. I wouldn't say that.

But you're not providing evidence that Duncan didn't quit. You're trying to justify why he did.

[Booharv]

Truthfully, I never got the impression Duncan cared that much about the Olympics and was more frustrated that he wasted an offseason when he could have been resting playing compe ively only to get a bronze medal. After that waste of time he was done with the whole thing, but its not like he ever sat around regretting it. But like Wojnarowski, I'm only basing that interpretation on my own personal guesswork of this thought process which is filtered through my own biases.

[Kevin Durant 35]

what did lebron do exactly that was so wrong? If the cavs built around james the way the thunder are building around durant then lebron easily would have stayed regardless of what miami was cooking up. The only guilty member in lebron leaving cleveland is the cavs organization.

+1

[Kevin Durant 35]

so the Thunder role players are better then the Cavs role players?

Imma have to say yes compare 2nd best playor on Cavs with 2nd best player on Thunder.

R. Westbrook>>>M. Williams

During postseason when Durant had a bad game Westbrook stood up and took the game over but when LeBron had a bad night none of his teammates helped.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

More Cleveland failures:

Drafting Eyenga over DeJuan Blair?
Signing Jamario Moon and Anthony Parker, there were better trade/FA options.


Please feel free to add to the list.

There weren't better options. No one wanted to sign with Cleveland long term last summer because Lebron wasn't gonna give a long term commitment.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Cleveland by no means made the best moves in the world, but they were all moves Lebron wanted, and they were enough to win 60+ games for two straight years. The first season MJ's Bulls won 60 games, MJ won his first championship.

He didn't quit he spent half the games on the bench, then that dumb stick marion fouled manu for a 4 point play near the end of the Argie game

Lebron's not Jordan, no one is. That's a bad comparison.
