Instead of talking with other teams and forming a plan first, because the other teams were blindsided by the decision.

Yeah, it forced the rest of the teams to follow suit at that point.

This is a valid point. They should have been given a forfeit if they wanted to no call no show. If you do this at any job without calling out first, you're fired.

Players are free to leave the bubble...This is just ****in' awkward. Let's all blame LeBron for the world's problems though.

Lebron had no problem playing until the Bucks decided not to. I'm sure part of the reason he's trying to lead in escalating this now is cause he's upset that someone else started this before he could get involved. He's already proven with the China thing that he's not 100% genuine.

All it takes is 1 moron and the herd mentality kicks in.

Thanks, George Hill.

I mean he's not wrong in the sense that a decision of this magnitude which ultimately impacts the whole probably should have been discussed as collective.

It would have precluded the Magic taking the court in confusion, lookin like a bunch of knobs

But what's done is done now.

Others I'm sure is Chris Paul. People forget he's the President of the NBPA. You can't do stuff like that without him at least knowing.

This 100%. It didn't give him a chance to be the face of it ESPECIALLY after being the main one to advocate for the restart. Basically, it looks like he's on the wrong side of history.

Bucks pretty much doing what Kyrie wanted AFTER he got dragged by the media (and Klutch, quite frankly w/Kendrick Perkins) for doing so.

The best player on the best team canceled the season, unilaterally...and it wasn't Lebron. History will definitely be interesting in recalling this.

Paul is there to solely protect the rights of the players, financially and look out for their well-being. Buck might have even forced this hand.

In a Wildcat strike, you can't tell everyone...especially dudes who are little loose at the lips. They didn't give the NBA or Lebron an opportunity to co-opt the movement.

That's why it was beautifully executed.
