Is this illegal or nah?

If not, who cares? I'm supposed to believe like Tom Brady was taking less money those years in New England to win Superbowls?

I mean, there's no way Robert Kraft would ever give him a mass amount of stock options in Kraft under the table etc.

because it is literally cheating



either enforce salary cap rules or don’t have one

It's circumventing league rules, not criminal law, which is why it's entirely an NBA matter.

Yeah I know. There are all kinds of things that aren’t illegal but are still cheating.

Doctors can legally prescribe athletes banned PEDs. It’s not illegal, but it still is cheating. I guess some people don’t care about any form of integrity in sports though judging by his comment.


and as for Cuban dude is annoying. talks in circles and used a whole lot of words to say absolutely nothing lol.

That doesn't make it illegal, lawfully.

He paid a guy under the table basically. I could care less bc this likely happens all the time

he is the richest owner in the league so him being able to pay people under the table makes it even more unfair.

it is cheating, period. you don't care about cheating cool.

But I bet you most of these owners are doing it. Ballmer just may have gotten sloppy with his.

doubt it , because you would see more players fine with not getting the max if they were being paid in other avenues.

I mean Kwahi was getting the max and still wanted more. And the way no player or team is really complaining makes me think more of them do it

Other shyt could be used as a sweetner on top of the max.
