You do understand how collective bargaining works right? You do understand that under the current CBA no one could make 30 million a season right?

You do understand that if Kobe wanted to ( because he meets the criteria to do so)... he could've opted for the 105% of his previous years 30M salary if he wanted to re-up with the Lakers....right?


Or did you not read that part of the CBA?

Jordan was even scared to take any side of a political issue and had to say that Republicans bought sneakers too.

Power my ass, he wouldn't even dare say anything as it might have hurt sales of his overpriced shoes.

Miami showed us what a real organization does when a player tries to take over. No.
When lebron signed with Miami they had pat riley, a ring in the last four years, a superstar in Wade and an allstar in Bosh coming to the team.

Chicago in 2014 is operating in a different level of despair with Melo not signing with them and Rose clearly regressing. This was also prior to Butler becoming a star. If Lebron showed interest and gave them a list of demands before he signed you know they would agree.

I'm sorry but jerry reinsdorf (bulls owner) has 6 rings, and he would NEVER allow lebron to pull the shyt he does in cleveland in chicago. dan gilbert and the cavs organization bend over to lebron over their fear that he might leave again each off season.

the bulls ain't about letting anyone have their entourage all up in the advocate center and on the team plane and shyt.

I don't "know" anything. No other team in the NBA has shown the level of incomptence CLE has. We forget; this same team had TWO number 1 overall picks before Lebron came and couldn't do anything with that. Excuse me if I have a hard time believing any other team would stoop that low.
