I am the 50 million dollar nigger.http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3520860&campaign=rsssrch&source=espn
50 mil a year that uncle sam can't touch?go for it King James
plus the cavs suck gigantic dick
NO player is worth 50M a year.
what if this turns basketball into what soccer is in Europe where you have leagues in several different countries that are world class, including the NBA, personally i thing Stern had this whole thing backfire on him.
well I guess we'll see what's more important to him:NBA championships and his legacyorbecoming a billionaire/global iconPersonally, I don't see him leaving the U.S. but 50 million a year tax free, agent fee free looks lovely.
FUCK YEAR
>>233944I actually hope it does, and this very well could bring this into happening. Still probably a long way from the exact spot of where soccer is if you guys are shitting yourselves over 50M a year considering Real Madrid are willing to pay 350M euros for C. Ronaldo.
>>233972thanks for bringing that up, I want to know why European teams don't have salary caps.
>>233974Because the governments don't give a fuck and you have billionaires in control of alot of european teams. From my understanding of it the government has a laiszze faire attitude towards the sports giants and the owners do play a big part. Chelsea is owned by a billionaire russian oil tycoon who is actually fucking up the transfer market by buying all the best players since he has more money than god. And from what I've read James will be going to europe to make himself global and richer, he wont stay for long, but regardless he will most probably go.
Troll of the year if he manages to get this done...
>While several NBA players have left the league this summer for more lucrative contracts in Europe, no stars have done so -- or even considered it.Hahaha, this is a nice, big ol' Fuck You to Josh Childress.
>>234076by no means is childress a star. im pretty sure even he knows that.
>>234057God here;Troll of sports history is moar like it. I know David Stern (his league crashing) and David Beckham (no longer being the overpaid guy from a different country trying to make his sport big in the country he just went to) would both become emo because of it.Trolls beware; the ultimate troll waits for the ultimate moment.Sincerely,God.
Yeah, lEBRON fucking jAMES!
NO Lebron! You cant leave! Hes the last hope to replace Michael Jordan.
>>234190Michael Jordan can make his free throws.
europeans give a fuck about basketball?
