That is extremely odd... not sure why you would pass on the
Warriors especially as you would get plenty of PT and compete for a title. With the Cavs having Love I could see the hesitancy there, but the Warriors? Who knows.

Meh...winning's overrated. I'd rather have the 10.6 million dollars.

After taxes, that's only like 88 cents.

"something more" is usually more money, no matter how much you have.

Wow, that is impressive from David West. Very few of us would do this

After making the money he's already made -- I'd sure consider it.

Pretty cool. Rare for pro athletes to be willing to do that.

Maybe there was a smudge on the decimal in $1.4M.

That's why the Jazz will never win a title
Twin Roots

Jazz would need a Popovich-type coach (i.e., recognized as the best in the NBA)

Very true. Pops is the tops

What was the cap like back then?

I disagree- this is an example of how the Jazz could win.

Utah is still a more unpopular destination than San Antonio
TNT

You are exactly wrong... San Antonio is why the Jazz can win a title

He is not crazy tv contract going up which means salaries (cap) are as well
