FWIW , i think its ridiculous calling him a traitor or whatever. We are talking about quantities of money and glory that we cant really comprehend , so we cant judge such a choice.
That said , i dont think that MJ or Kobe wanted the title less when they were getting MVP by MVP but no ring. But they stayed at their teams and achieved higher level of greatness when they did get the ring(s) too.
On the other hand , that may not work , Barkley , Stockton-Malone etc.
Also GOAT is taken , forever , Lebron is smart enough to know it , there will never be another MJ. So why chase it , its impossible. Kobe for example , looks like he didn't quite know it , so he tried to chase it. Nice try for sure...
Bottom line : lets focus on basketball , i cant wait to see how this team will perform , gonna be sick!
