"Steph Curry should be getting 5 years 400 mil" LeBron James

So then Lebron should be worth double that right?


Because hes a two-way player?

Ya he did such a great job defending kd in the finals

 

[Absolut]

bron was in a position to negotiate this, and failed miserably. until the superstar players realize they hold all the cards, nothing will change because the union is after keeping the status quo, since that means more money to go around to the average ass expendable musical chair players which outnumber the stars tenfold
LeBron named NBPA VP ahead of CBA talks

 

[LeMAO]

how about NBA shoudl put a rule of 1 max player per team. to avoid this shytty Superteam shyt that Lebron is trying here to sound like

 

[Rekkapryde]

Ballmer overpaying for the Clippers elevated a lot of these values.

The nbapa is dumb to accept a cap. It should be a cap on teams, but all that max contract shyt is dumb.

yup

make a reasonable team cap but allow you to go over for players you draft

get rid of the "max" but keep player minimums for years of service

 

[LeMAO]

There is nothing wrong with the way it is now...

nikkas just being greedy and being mad that they don't own a team and they feel like they provide all the value (which not really, cause without the owners they wouldn't have a building to play in or a uniform or a TV contract or endorsement deals or a bunch of other shyt)...

These nikkas got personal trainers, superb medical care and private chefs and shyt...

Owning a sports team is like buying a fine art...owners really do the shyt for kicks and giggles and to brag and protect their money

It's funny how superstar athletes can make millions of fukking dollars and be the highest paid on the team and then bytch about how they being paid....

Like only athletes have open grievances with their bosses and cry about being exploited while being compensated to a degree that only exist in high level European futbool and Corporate America....

It's very weird...since the USA is anti-labor...but if an athlete says it we need to listen to be pampered motherfukkers and think about ways to compensate them even better...


shyt is dumb as fukk..

The system is fine...these nikkas got guaranteed contracts...they get paid even if they don't fukking play...


nikka what kind of job do you get paid for not doing your job...

nikka Chris Bosh got sick and got paid...

Regular motherfukker gets sick and they get laid off ...

the only REAL answer in this thread, not cac here, cac there, cac everywhere whinning

How about we lower the ticket prices and jersey prices shyt how about we up minimum wage to 40 dollars everywhere..I Don't give a damn about someone being able to buy they side chick 2 Bentleys instead of 6

 

[MJ Truth]

I can see why they do it to be honest. If there were no caps then teams like the Lakers, Knicks, and Golden State would dominate because of location and the money they make. Basketball is different from other sports in that talent beats any plan you can come up with. In other sports, with the right game plan you can beat anyone. Basketball also has finite people to play because its dependent on height. Trust me, a cap is for the best because it benefits everyone. I wouldn't watch a sport with 3 teams winning every fukking time.

What? Basketball already is a sport where the same teams win every time.

at a 40$ minimum wage

And the NBA/sports is a luxury, not need. You don't have the money for tickets/jerseys, then by all means don't pay

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

They need to be getting paid more than baseball players that's forsure

 

[Made Myself A Boss]

These comments about Stephs money shouldn't be coming from Bron tho....I'm really sick of this nikkas character always tryna cozy up with the opposition...

This same system is getting players like Mike Conely paid out the waazoo...
I don't see a problem in spreading the wealth around

 

[Copy Ninja]

Role players outnumber the stars. Otto Porter about to make $135 million


Why would 95% of the NBA want to change the current system?

 

[Jax]

if there was no cap the Lakers would have a lot of your favorite players Warriors might have never been gotten Curry or kept Thompson/Green by now under an uncapped system

Nobody gives a fukk about the lakers like that, It's a fantasy.

 

[winb83]

Crazy how the blackest sport is the only one that limits how much one person can make

guaranteed contracts.
