The Fundamentals

Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports: “This is a treacherous time for the 24-year-old Paul, a crossroads for a career that’s at the mercy of circumstances beyond his control. At a time when his twentysomething all-world peers – LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, Dwight Howard and Carmelo Anthony – play for committed organizations with serious owners, the faulty infrastructure of Shinn’s flimsy franchise has undermined Paul’s championship ambitions. ‘I’m envious,’ Paul said. ‘I’m very envious.
