I admit to being more of a bottom line type of guy than an honor and virtue one, so maybe that's why my opinion is shifted in that direction.
As for the article, it's a bit dramatic. "And fans … well, I would not blame fans for being a little less enthusiastic about the NBA next year because of this." Come on, that's a little out there in my opinion. Honestly, I think this whole thing blows over, and no one but Cavs fans even really remember it past this next season.

I guess the question is: how much is your word worth? You'd be surprised how often you will get to screw someone. However if someone is doing you a favor, you really shouldn't. I'm not saying that alot of people wouldn't have taken the money, I'm saying that if you did you should be considered a lying scumbag.
