CJ McCollum joins ESPN as Multi-Platform Analyst

[10bandz]

The amount of money he’s made over his career so far, why would you want to be an employee to begin with?

ESPN is just being lazy.

Because retiring for good at 35-40 isn’t the wave. Prolly get bored quickly. That’s a lot of down time. Being an analyst allows him to continue making good cheese while talking about the game he loves.

I will say though, it’s wild to me that Draymond is running a full podcast WHILE he’s going through the playoffs and making a title run lol.

It's not like he has a jumper to practice on.

Crazy you even had to explain this

 

[BK The Great]

Guess his time is ending near as a player.

When did it become cool to do this shyt while still playing?

This actually happened back in the day, and in plenty of other sports. Guys have done part time media work, particularly near the end of their careers, especially in boxing. NBATV (and TNT) has always had active players come in and do broadcast work. But with the amount of content out now, and the demand for it, and the ability to create it on your own, you’ll see this type of stuff at record numbers.

There’s definitely been active players pop up on NBA TV through the years

 

[Street Messiah]

Jalen rose used to do sideline of pistons games when he was eliminated

 

[Yapdatfool]

lmao at some point it's just gonna be ex nba players and current nba players on tv. reporters and media members were already getting salty about this

Good. They aren't any worse in their hot takes or piss poor opinion than their non player counterparts. I wouldn't mind it not one bit.

 

[ABlackMan]

This really just espn trying to game turner.

 

[Easy-E]

Time for dumbass questions about Zion.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

He can ball but he’s being hated on by Coli coaches lol

Oldface young dude would bust everyone on The Coli's ass though

nikkas mad cuz CJ setting himself up for post-career y’all are miserable

CJ is an incredibly talented baller despite being undersized and not particularly athletic, is intelligent and finished his degree in journalism, is well-liked and was elected NBPA president, is happily married and takes care of his seed, runs real philanthropic efforts in his community, and is setting himself up for a post-basketball career.

By almost any fukking actual standard he's living a great life. But Coli haters constantly want to hate him for no clear reason other than they're bitter about their own life.
