Wow, Stern should be forced to resign for this Paul debacle.
I'm so torn on this whole thing!
Obviously, players should want to go wherever the hell they want to go to. I just wish that players would consider the fact that there are great areas in the US that aren't New York, LA or Miami.
For instance, the reason why the Warriors and Clippers were hesitant to give up really good players for CP3 were because he wouldn't sign with them. Now, I understand the Clippers since Sterling couldn't be more of a cretin (although Paul-to-Griffin for even four months is a dream come true). But why wouldn't you want to play for Golden State? San Francisco is pretty similar to New York, except that it's hillier and a lot prettier and has less annoying people. And they also have the best fans in the league (one of the few things I see eye-to-eye with Simmons about) and a new ownership group that's pretty ambitious.
One of the reasons why everyone loves KD is that he wants to play in Oklahoma City. I wouldn't even have wanted to go to a Denny's in OKC until the Thunder played there and now the league's most beloved player has anchored himself there! CP3 could have been that same level person if he would've signed.
As far as Stern/owners go -- none of them, in their business lives, would have ever wanted other people in their industry to tell them what they can and can't do with personnel hirings. They should be completely ashamed of themselves.
