500,000?? lol. He'll be pretty close to 100,000.

Here's my point on the 500k

If that was really his thought process, that's some really bad math, man.

2 years older is a drop in the bucket, that's the least of Mika's problems. Most
cougfromcali
6/25/17 11:41am
2 years older is a huge deal. There were comments about his age THIs year.
Shteve

Is 5 months a huge deal? Is 1 year a huge deal?

Haha The G-league? The fact they are changing the name of the league shows ...

You don't follow the NBA much do you.
Shteve
6/25/17 12:19pm
I follow it enough to know that d-league players stay in the d-league.
COACHdrn
6/25/17 1:26pm
So you know all about the new two way contracts?
Shteve
6/25/17 1:44pm
Yup.
COACHdrn
6/25/17 1:55pm
Then you know your opinion is very much off.
Shteve
6/25/17 2:43pm
For the past 6 season, only 30 guys get "called up" from d-league teams...

2017 End of season NBA rosters had a high of 44% G League players

Why isn't Emery and Haws leaving NOW! They can earn money overseas

Those players still have a LOT of development they need to focus on before they

"He couldn't improve his draft status next year..." Uh... How you figure?

You literally just follow my posts to thumbs down every time, so no point in

Your a fool if you think he couldn't improve his draft status.

Strong words -- but truth.

Yeah, that's just plain silly.

A lot of knowledgeable basketball people are "fools" then

He'll never have as impactful of a role on something that so many people care
RdF3
6/24/17 5:44pm
Thats a very limiting statement and short-sited statement.
Shteve
6/24/17 6:54pm
Okay fine. Maybe he'll become a GA.
RdF3

Maybe, but it's the truth.

Its an accurate statement

Not so.

What could he be a part of that people care about more than BYU ball?

He had that last year and chose to move on. Whatever his reason, he already

I dunno, TNT might beg to differ.

He has $$$ and freedom now. I'd take that over playing for peanuts and going

My guess is he didn't like it at BYU very much.

I don't get that logic. Emery is 4 years past HS, Haws is 3 years. Both those

It might simply be personality

Rose is at the same place was in 2012ish. It's time for a new regime.

How can you possibly know this?

If he wants to make "a bunch of money" he made the wrong choice.

I wanted him to stay, but Rose can't develop him. Go make money young man.

He would make about as much money with a degree, not playing basketball.
