You just contradicted yourself. It ends at it’s a business. He’s getting 170+ million dollars no one is going to feel bad for this dude playing a professional sport
LeBron is right. What the Clippers did was dirty. Blake Griffin could’ve gone anywhere he wanted this summer and the Clippers told him they wanted him to retire with them. Now he’s in Year 1 of a 5 Year deal with a team he didn’t choose. It’s a business, but that’s not right.https://twitter.com/espn/status/958465095465652224 …

They still did him wrong, there’s no way around that
-
Nah not really. They whined and dined him but that’s on him and his agent not to get a no trade clause. Buyers remorse.
-
probably because they trusted the franchise? Team was built around him, injuries slowed them down this season and he got the boot. I understand your point but to me it’s still kinda sketchy... But as you say, its a business!

Players need to be selfish and act like it's a business too. They're ("Owners" are) playing by different rules.

eh, just good business by the clippers. They were able to trade both CP3 and and Griffin instead letting them walk free during free agency. And im sure they were intending to keep Griffin when they signed that 5 year deal.

It's always a mistake to emotionally expect anything from a professional sports team. I say this as a native Angeleno, who saw the Rams leave, was heart-broken, and excited to see the Raiders. Then they left. That's all it took for me to not care ever.

The sucky part of the business is why they get paid so well. Teams work numbers and move contracts.
