no

i would think that's a typo, i thought the league minimum was 10x that amount

1/14/2010 10:51:21 AM

I'm sure thats for a 10 day contract

League minimum is several hundred thou

So congrats if you make more in a year than he does in a week and a half

I think it's because he isn't on the team the whole season. The league minimum is pro-rated into the number of games you're on the team.

this isn't supposed to be a serious thread

jeez, you must all be one of BridgetSPK's aliases

says that he signed a one-year non-guaranteed deal. no idea what that means though

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4780082

according to this, his minimum salary would be like 20x that amount, so either it's a typo or you're right about the 10 day deal

it's the same deal Grundy got when he got picked up as a band-aid for the Hawks a few years back

1/14/2010 10:57:32 AM

I wish it was like 50-60 years back when the players made no more than the fans who attended the games

1/14/2010 10:57:54 AM

i wonder what it would be like if congress set a limit on pro sporting event ticket prices which would force teams do lottory select people to buy tickets. the top fans would campout to pay a low price to get in and players would make a lot less but they'd be doing more of a service to the community instead of raping poor people who pay lebron half their paycheck to let their kids watch him play a game.

1/14/2010 11:11:20 AM

the top fans scalpers would campout to pay a low price to get in sell the tickets to the wealthiest individuals

1/14/2010 11:16:22 AM

why even respond to that troll?

1/14/2010 12:11:26 PM

I wish I could find a job.
