I wish it was back like where it was in the old days where there wasn't a cap. Back in the day, they were giving guys coming out of college with multimillion-dollar contracts, so why stop it now? The game is growing. There's no need to stop it.

Michael Jordan made $30 million a year

this is something thrown around without anyone knowing the real story

this includes rose. Jordan made 30 million, AFTER he came back from retirement. For most of his career he was very underpaid. He was paid 5-6 million per year. He took paycuts to ensure that the good players around him remained around him and that the organization could get better players. He made a lot more money away from the nba (and im not JUST talking about his gambling habits).

I dont care what the D.N.A. Says, the Guy wearing number 12 Cannot be Kirk Hinrich, he is definetly Kurt. Kirk can actually play basketball!
