If my boss had me on a two year contract (with a crap ton of guaranteed comp) and I stormed into his office demanding he facilitate a move to a competitor, how do you think that conversation would go?



That depends. What do you do?

Can he fire you today and replace you relatively quickly with someone of approximate skill?

If this was some player on a 2-way contract this wouldn't have even made the news.

That kind of proves my point.

I’m not trying to say he doesn’t have leverage. I’m saying that it’s kind of a douche thing to do, and comparing it to “normal people” doesn’t make sense.

LeBron gets a lot of flack from people (myself included) for jumping teams, but at least he never tried to force his way out of a situation, and he certainly had the leverage to do so.
