NBA owners to seek big salary rollback

[Cruise]

What do you mean the European leagues have offered Kobe and LeBron huge contracts in the past? The reality is the big bucks are going over the pond, you can take it or leave it alone.

C'mon. You must know the European countries are teetering on bankruptcy.

Europe has no wealth and are completely dependent on Russia, Africa, and the Middle East to keep their lights on.

You say that like Brown/Kareem/Ali were the norm, they weren't. While he's made plenty of poor decisions, Stephon Marbury went out of his way to try to make affordable sports gear and brought along several top NBA players with him. Hakeem Olajuwon endorsed Spalding at a time when Nike and Reebok were handing out 8 figure deals.

You're right. But, "Starbury" is no kind of example for anyone to follow.

Hakeem and Dikemebe, the African giants, do not represent the spoiled "black" American athelete.

The American athlete only wants to be white and live like a child. They are completely detached from reality.

It is funny. Hating on people because they have and you don't is immature as shit and speaks to the type of person you are. Like them or not, those dudes work hard to get where they are and usually play for free far more years than they get paid.
There are only several hundred NBA players, how many people do your job? That's why they get paid so much.

And the really funny thing is all the generalizations that are being made in the thread about athletes, are made about black people by conservatives.
its funny how people love these athletes when they are playing at their favorite college, yet they turn into the scum of the earth when they turn pro
