    Trade him now!

    Now that he has express his feelings why would you want him on your team? How can you ever be sure he's giving 100%? Oh I'm hurt - again. Let him sit on someone else's IR.
    Hard to play at the professional level while being a pouty baby.

    Because Chris Paul has told the truth about the Hornets, I think the Hornest, Management and Owners, owe him a face to face honest discussion about their situation, and their plans for him and the team. Pending the results of that meeting they should become transparent for the sake of Chris Paul and the fans and follow what was the agreement results of the meeting.
    Watching players who have become unhappy with their teams, quit, because they are paid well, but are also performing nightly, DURING GREAT HARM to their bodies, over time, and if they want to preserve their bodies in hopes of a future championship, they must "PROTECT THEM SELVES" from the abuse.
    What the players are doing is banding together to expose the rich owners who are or become tight wads and are inteested in using the NBA money to get richer, by not going beyond the CAP, which is guaranteed money for players and operations, (Franchise). The rich owners will not go beyond the safe money or invest in the future for better talent, which produces increased fan support, that equals more dollars, ticket sales, merchandise, local cable deals and other incentives for owners while markteing a franchise product that they know lacks the talent to compete with major teams that have invested in winning. The fans support the teams by purchasing, season and night tickets, merchandise, cable companies buy time, concession percentages at games is higher and the rich get richer, hyped marketing brings the fans in, and the players, some paid very well, but not all, continue to be paid and abuse their knees, shoulders, and other body parts until they are used up. The harder and more sincere th player plays to win, the greater risk he put's him self.
