European league is making $200k a year. No one. Mika is playing in the top Italian league and is nowhere near that amount. Bryant is not the prospect that Mika was.
What are you talking about with his knees? You just pull some random number out and say that is how long his knees are good for? LOL.
To compare me to EB is not a fair comparison. I paid my way through school. EB did not. I had no chance to play in front of 20,000 fans in the Marriott Center. Had you offered me that for a free year of graduate school at BYU I would have taken it in a heart beat. Not to mention the chance at glory in the tournament which would earn him lots more dollars whether he stayed in the NBA or Europe.
