    Jordan Hill needs to upgrade his friends. This one is clearly a scrub fit only for being Courtney Fortson's friend.

    In related news, I am thinking about playing basketball and drive a car, but have friends that drive cars as well.

    Yeah, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Jordan Hill shouldn't be buying Bentleys at his pay grade just yet.

    He makes 3.6 M per year. He can easily afford a bentley with cash

    He makes about 2.5 after taxes. Maybe less in California. So about a fifth of his salary. And look he is injured hope he recovers or could end up broke in 5 years. Livin it up yo

    if you buy a 20,000 car while making 100,000 per year, you are also spending a 5th of your salary but I dont see anybody saying that you are paying too much for a car.

    The key to spending money wisely is to keep making money. Jordan is still young and unless he gets a career ending injury he will have 10 years left of making NBA salary.
