CJ McCollum would never sign with the Warriors to win a title, ‘that's disgusting'

Share

CJ McCollum is continuing to make headlines.

The Blazers guard was recently in China and made an apperance on China Central Television.

He was asked the following question:

"Maybe in the future, the Warriors would become a team that everybody when he became a free agent would join them, get a championship, and then go to another team ... what do you think?"

McCollum's response:

"I would never do anything of that nature. I think that's disgusting. It's disgusting. I would never do that," McCollum declared. "I'm not built like those guys. I was raised differently.

"I think some players will take that route. But most guys have too much pride, want to really win on their own or in their certain organizations and aren't just gonna jump the bandwagon."

Oh my.

Obviously, not every star free agent wants to sign with the Warriors, nor is it possible for every star free agent to come to Golden State.

It's unclear if McCollum's strong feelings are aimed towards future players who join the Warriors, or if he's directing his words at Kevin Durant and/or DeMarcus Cousins.

Based on his podcast conversation with Durant, it seems like it's probably some of both...
