Carmelo the first person to come to mind.... he's already kind of being forgotten due to not getting any rings. People wont think of him truly being a great player just a volume scorer.

He shouldve been more patient.... but then he doubled down and re upped with NY and while you cant fault a man for getting paid that was the nail in the coffin for his legacy. Dude was never going to close to a ring there.

Cam diving tackle in 2016 vs the Chargers - If he doesn’t try to tackle the CB after throwing an interception, he doesn’t mess up his shoulder and would still be in the league now

True but McGrady wanted to be the main guy. Toronto missed out in a great opportunity to build a championship team at that time.
I don't think he necessarily wanted to be the main guy. The original plan was it was gonna be Tim Duncan and Grant Hill on that squad. Duncan decided to stay in San Antonio, and Grant Hill was injured, so Tmac became the #1 out of circumstance.

Man was getting $25 million a year to drive around in the midfield with no pressure to win. Whole team built for him. A racecar driver with no championships making bank. Living the life. :snoop:

Saquon Barkley not taking the multi year contract from the Giants

As much as I hate what is going on now in the copycat clown NFL with RBs Saquon made a big mistake

NO other team is gonna meet his price.

Saquon has to have a historic legendary season in order to get the contract he wants now

I’m talkin 2,000 yards, 30 TDs type shyt and even then they gonna be like you have too much tread on those tires

He’s fukked in my opinion.
