Whether Chris Paul Stays or Goes, NBA Is Losing Integrity

Waaaah!



I want to play with my buddies.



If you don't let me, I'll take my ball and go home. Then I'll kick and scream until I get more millions for my millions while saying it's really about trying to win world championships.



What a joke. Actually, it isn't funny that the NBA is just another one of these big babies with fat wallets away from vanishing off the face of the earth. And here's the biggest reason you should hold the chuckles: The forming of Miami's Big Three has triggered an attitude that is destroying the competitiveness of teams through selfishness and greed.



Which brings us to integrity, because integrity is huge.



You lose integrity, and you lose what counts the most, not only in life but in sports.



For instance: Fans hug their favorite teams -- financially, emotionally or both -- because they believe the integrity is there courtesy of competitiveness without selfishness and greed.
