    LMAO at Tucker saying he wants to be wanted....

    Bro, what is going on with these guys lately...like NBA is seriously overpaying these people, when will this end? 50M a year?

    8M a year, at 36, and you are acting like a fukin child man. Its never been better for them, pays well, great system, retirement. The NBA has become like the spoiled childrens daycare...

    Imagine you love basketball, you make it to the NBA, you are already a few chosen ones, you make millions, play for 10-15 years what you love..you are about to end you career and be taken care of, and then you out here whining like a little b****, *** man

    When you say it like that it’s very hard to argue.

    there are plenty of people that buy tickets that make less than 40$k a year. You hear people say movie theaters are dead. It cost this much to see a movie with a family of four etc etc. how about going to an NBA game with a family of four with mediocre seats. It could be two weeks salary. But 8$ mil is not enough. I wonder how much Latrel Spreewell has in his accounts these days.

    pretty sure I've checked you on this already dummy. I've probably donated at least twice as much as you idiot. you think opting for a contributing title makes you better than folks. Please. It's an option. People like me who donate for free don't care about that title. stfu

    The only reason you bring this up is because you have nothing else credible to say moron. taking this route is a damn sad af route

    and you're the one who was complaining about a $1 Feigan article on the chronicle. Broke ass

    I don't care about that title. The tipjar is an anytime thing without recognition. Anyone who knows the ins and outs of this site would know that. But yeah we sure see who's the real regulars around here

    WTF does a pandemic have to do with anything?

    Is anybody else in the NBA not getting paid during the pandemic?

    Professional ball players saying they are ; this has been happening since the 60's just look at Jim Brown.

    And you flying in here chastising them.:rolleyes:

    Tucker has not been playing 15 years making millions and that is the point.

    This is a very uneducated way of looking at things.

    Overpaying these guys?

    You sound foolish.

    Exactly, no other players are crying with emojis like a teenage girl who broke up with her first crush!

    Can't wait for PJ to open his shoe store and I go in and say I want a discount because I don't feel wanted, the front desk didn't say hi good enough to make me feel wanted, wah....

    How often does it happen with someone of Tucker's caliber? Usually, guys like that are happy just to be in the league.

    He's played in the NBA for 11 years and has made over $42m in career earnings. How is that an uneducated perspective?
