NBA Hall Of Famer tells ESPN Radio Rumor is true 

Post#1 » by wardevil » Fri May 21, 2010 12:16 pm

FROM THE Huffington Post website.

Basketball Hall of Famer Calvin Murphy took to the airwaves Wednesday night and became the most high-profile person to date to back the rumors. "It ain't no rumor," he told a Houston ESPN Radio station, calling the claims "absolutely true" and "absolutely horrifying." He went on:

" Unfortunately, my sources in the NBA tell me it's absolutely true. My sources, and they're legit, tell me that the only people who didn't know it was happening was LeBron and me."

" He also claims "there was another party... that West wasn't the only" man involved in the alleged affair

I would expect him to admit that he was one of the other people involved?

He has never been convicted of any of those charges, it is childish to use that argument.
He has been around the league long enough to know what is a legit source.

Not sure why you guys are defending LeBron on the subject.

Hell, I HOPE this is true, cause, then at least the meltdown will make some sense.

Who the hell is Calvin Murphy other than some washed up basketball player and what does have to do with the Cavs and Lebron?

Because being around a sport means you now have rumor credibility?

Since when does the Huffington post have any credibility? Geez, ratings whores are everywhere. You keep believing everything you hear and then repeat it again and again. Soon they will start calling you a journalist.

That wont matter to the rumor mongers. Cant let the truth get in the way of a juicy story. Being found guilty or not doesnt have anything to do with whether or not somebody is a scumbag. OJ? Or more recently Tiger and Big Ben. Not found guilty, but not innocent either.
Obvoiusly the Huffington post would much rather stand behind Calvin Murphy, the stand up guy that he is rather than do any actual journalism. What else is new?

All it would take to dispel this rumor is a single instance of Lebron and West sharing a friendly gestured in any of the last three games. I am not willing to look through them again, but i am sure someone can find them.

It took a jury only 2 hours to find him not guilty, all nine of the woman said the children were not credible, and the parents were seeking to capitalize on his wealth.He was on ESPN radio, so I guess they would not want to be associated with a terrible rumor,and rebuke Calvin,NOT!I bet not one of the so-called credible sources will question or challenge Murphy on his statement,because they know its true!

Stop posting this everywhere. Post it in one thread and let it be discussed.

Second, it's not true.

Third, Calvin Murphy is lucky he is not in jail and is just trying to get publicity.

lol @ "there was another party...West wasn't the only one involved." The whole team will be running a train on Gloria sooner or later :roll:

Still don't believe this. The only thing that was fishy to me was LBJ's delayed response, kinda assumed he would lawyer up immediately. But until someone credible (or with any sort of morals...) confirms this rumor, I'm sticking with it being BS.

I am more prone to believe BW from the PD than Murphy!

As for his "not guilty" verdict... When that many women come forward...it is likely that there was some truth to what was being said. Yes, some may have been lies...but for those of us that actually paid attention to that trial, we know that Calvin dodged a HUGE bullet!!!! He may have been founf 'not guilty' , but there is little doubt among people 'in the know' that he did, in-fact have sex with at-least one of those girls.

OJ was found 'not-guilty' too... how many actually believe that to be true.

REGARDLESS... Delonte West did NOT have intimate relations with LeBron's mother! This is complete BS, and Clevelanders should avoid adding fuel to the mini-fire that TMZ started. This is a none-story!
We the People...

Return to Cleveland Cavaliers
