Nobody gets it. Such a strange, abrupt end to what could've been...

I get it..

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

Lance71

Here's my point on the 500k

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

What do you mean?

He stood a much better chance at being drafted w/ one more year at BYU, plus he

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

6/25/17 12:21pm

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

cougfromcali

6/25/17 2:06pm

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

COACHdrn

6/24/17 11:43pm

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...

COACHdrn

6/25/17 6:03pm

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

Simple. He got bad advice.

Speak for yourself dude. Many of us get it.

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

Cougarfan777

6/24/17 10:02pm

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

Machiavelli

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

Ktar

6/24/17 10:46pm

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

Machiavelli

6/25/17 11:30pm

Hahahaha!!! Now that is hysterical! Glad I'm living rent free in that head

Ktar

6/27/17 4:59pm

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

WhyKnot

Strong words -- but truth.

cougfromcali

6/25/17 1:28am

Yeah, that's just plain silly.

Ktar

6/25/17 7:44am

A lot of knowledgeable basketball people are "fools" then

Machiavelli

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

6/24/17 7:33pm

Maybe, but it's the truth.

COACHdrn

6/24/17 7:51pm

Its an accurate statement

LDTemplar

Not so.

hammergm

6/24/17 8:33pm

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.

Ktar

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

Backcountry

??? He maybe has $ -- but not $$$.

cougfromcali

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

People don't want to accept this, but it's the only logical answer. There were

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

Cougarfan777

It might simply be personality

I'm honestly really, really bothered that he didn't enjoy playing with this

Very strange considering the media made them out to be childhood best friends

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

Backcountry

How can you possibly know this?

I'm not claiming insider info. He left the team when basically everyone

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

Yep. It's a real issue.

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

IronPotato

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

Degrees don't make you crap
