12.5 million with good minutes beats riding the pine. He knows that.Read the article I posted on the last page and then ask yourself if West would be interested in playing for the Pacers.

Dis nikka said "only"He was only gonna make $11M in Indy. He wasnt gonna get that nowhere else so he was gonna take a paycut regardless. So he took the min to come win a championship and play with his idol in Duncan
Obviously he felt comfortable financially, so he said fukk it why stay in bunk ass Indianapolis with no shot of winning?


No basketball player worth their salt likes sitting on the bench. He's 35 not 45.
Why are you worried about how much money is in his pockets though? He decided sacrificing money for a chance at a championship > getting millions of dollars on an "OK" team. If the Spurs win great, his mission accomplished. If they don't who cares, he decided the risk was worth it. I salute that, obviously his pockets aren't hurting.12.5 million with good minutes beats riding the pine. He knows that.
I can see him helping against a few teams, but against golden state he's almost useless. He would've done more damage for the pacers in the east playoffs

I'm pretty sure he felt he would play a bigger role than 15 mins. At least I would hope so.Breh he signed knowing what type of mins he will be playing.
You're right. This is exactly why multimillionaires stop trying to make money and good business deals once they turn 35.Another Coli "I aint never made no money in my life so I am taking the money over everything" exposal thread
If there is one situation in this world where it would be easy to turn down 11 million...it's probably a situation where you already made over 80 million...
But coli burger flippers go down the street to the flaim broiled joint cause they giving them 26 cent extra an hour so![]()
True, but he could've played this same role next year for a contender, that's my main issue. Against the cavs he helps, but there's a lot in his way to get there.Naw he would have gotten knocked out the first found brotha.
He might be able to play for a few minutes against the warriors when they put in Sleights. But I am sure that West will get a lot of PT if they make it to the finals to play the Cavs.
