"If your daddy aint the assistant coach and the team president aint your godfather???

Tell em to f**k off and pay you." -----This is what you said and it makes no sense.

So what , his father is an assistant coach, what does that have to do with anything? & that 'team president' comment is random, what does that have to do with giving the team a 113 million discount, huh?

You just said that because you want to play both sides, you want to talk about ownership undercover payments like that's a good thing while praising Jalen Brunson's discount because his father is assistant coach and his godfather is team president.

Bro, make it make sense! That's some 'playing both sides' logic.

I have no idea what you arguing about because I AGREE with you - only reminding you that it HAS worked so people WILL risk it.l

My point is unless you literally got BLOOD in that front office? Don't do it!

Unless the owner has PROVEN to you and your agent and manager to be SOLID? Don't do it.

All the examples that I have heard that this has worked? It was that type of specific relationship.

So I can't LIE and say it doesn't happen and every owner is a liar

But I would always ASSUME that they were.

Like with anything there are situations where the player is willing to take that risk.

I would NEVER advise to do it.

But I have to also acknowledge that it has been done successfully in the past.

And in Brunson's case, Duncan's case, Dirk, Tom Brady...it worked.

Those are outliers.

But these ae ATHLETES. They are always going to take that risk and bet on themeselves and want that legend tha they "sacrificed"

which is bullsh*t cause these owners GOT THAT MONEY

Its not both sides. Its just stating the REALITY of the situation.

Its complicated because certain cases it COULD work and the risk is worth it and some people CARE about "legacy narratives" that they gave EVERYTHING for the team.

This is exactly how the salary cap is supposed to work to not create superteams and have parity. You can sign two max guys but if you have 3 then you run into the problem the Thunder have next season & the Spurs will have in a couple years. You can sign Shai, Chet & Jay, then Wemby, Castle & Dylan soon to be at max, 3 guys then you either pay 200m a year in luxury tax or have the rest of the team at near minimum salaries. Spurs got lucky drafting so high in the draft for their big 3 but the new tanking rules won't let you sit your star player that could come back at the end of the season for a better draft pick.

I think that resigning a max player your team drafted, you should get 15% in salary cap relief to promote good drafting by GM's. Chet & Jay count 82M on the salary cap next season, but because the Thunder drafted them, Shai was a trade so he won't count, under the Chemist Max Salary Cap Relief Proposal, the Thunder will save 12M by signing those two to a max contract. Huge savings when your team is in the 2nd apron.

The Chemist Max Salary Relief Proposal sounds like a righteous deal...:thumbsup:

It's not complicated, though. Either you get the money you have earned the leverage for or you don't. As for the blood in the front office, what does have to do with Jalen giving the team a 113 million discount, though? Bro, like I said, the ownership class is rich for a reason, & giving away money that's rooted in goodwill and promises aren't contractually binding so you'll get shafted every time.

Even without seeing the numbers, you could just watch them and tell they were on a mission. Fuck the opponent. They didn’t “play with their food” in the early rounds. They destroyed their opponents. I never looked at them in these playoffs and thought, “They’re only winning because they’re playing weaker opponents”

I wish Boston was healthy so the Knicks could’ve beat them instead just to prove my point. Knicks fans can go to hell but the actual players, salute!
