A contract is a businees agreement which states the terms of compensation IF a player chooses to play and IF a team chooses to keep him on the roster, and what happens IF either party freely chooses not to.
Players are just as free to hold out their services for a better offer as teams are to cut players and offer to bring them back at a lower salary. The agreement never says the player has to play no matter what. The decision to not play can he health, financial, family, personal, religious, and etc reasons.
Hmmmm.....
Dude, no one is arguing with you that Kam could choose not to play his contract and "hold out".
My focus was the morality issue. See the comments below:

SoulfishHawk":6fws899f said:There is no excuse for what he is doing, period.
SomerseHawk":6fws899f said:Kam's being illogical and is just trying to get more money. That looks like it's failed, and now he's just being stubborn/fatalistic.

WilliamCooper":6fws899f said:Actually, he doesn't have a right to sit at home.

A lot of the comments are link to morality. So when you say no one is arguing... you are wrong.
It is a fact that there have been many hold out since the new CBA. I don't think I even need to provide any examples.Cartire":6fws899f said:But were not wrong in saying hes stupid. He's in a union. That means hes subject to the fines and penalties his union agreed too. So this guy that thought he could "hold out", could. But guess what, its stupid. And we all know that. And the team knows that. And his teammates know that. Thats why no one has done it since the new CBA. Thats why its his fault and his stupidity for even doing it.
You fault him for doing this. You also attempted to judged him based on morality. You are conflicting yourself.
I don't think people should judged Kam as a person because of the hold out. You are not him. You don't know everything in the situations. Kam doesn't owe you any explanations.
