Are most players forgetting their roots and who they were before joining one of the most profitable leagues of sports worldwide? They are reacting and making absurd statements as if the NBA is trying to abuse and exploit all of them.
There are no doubts that this absurd situation was created and is being manipulated by dark and greedy business minds from the players’ side, which are not related to sports and neither to the players’ individual interests.
Did any NBA players was a millionaire before getting into the NBA? NO!!!
Were all owners multimillionaires before getting into the NBA and before NBA players entered the league? YES
Will the billionaire owners subsist through their own business outside the NBA? YES
Would NBA players do it without the NBA? I don’t think so?
Every player should invest just a couple of minutes to look back at their own past and compare it to what they are today and achieved since they joined the NBA. Most of them are hard working individuals and great athletes who deserve what they have, but all of them should also realize that probably none of them would be enjoying the personal success and financial situation they have today without the powerful NBA and multimillionaire owners?
I’m really done with professional basketball. A strong sentiment of antipathy toward those who used to be my favored players is already on me and I know it will not change. Money could provide a lot of things, even happiness and power, but will never change our roots and our past. Arrogance, greed and lack of honesty are bad stuff.
