Hey Tobias - times are tough; think you think could give some of that money back? We just thought you were going to shoot more threes. Thanks, buddy!

I didnt say Tobi will give back a single money from his contract.

Im just saying that if we can ask Tobi to give back some of his salary then why not? Because i dont think you need $30+M a year to live as an athlete. It’s not like he is operating a company with millions of expenditures (like paying salaries to employees) that is struggling to get income on probably the worst economic recession in history.


Josh Harris ain't exactly struggling. Or do you give back in the societal sense in the form of charity? Also... worst economic recession in history?


For now, it’s the worst since the great depression but we’ll never know since the global economy still has not yet recovered.

We dont know if he is struggling or not. Lehman brothers was once described as “too big to fail”.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Let’s not disrespect Horford who played out of position. He’s a good starting 5 in this league . If Embiid is traded for value Horford is a good replacement and a better fit we go with MDA.

If Harris did that the players union would cut his head off, and rightfully so. Imagine a millionaire giving money back to a Billionaire because times are hard. The optics of that are horrible. Now imagine a black millionaire giving money back to a while billionaire because times are hard. Heads would explode all over the country/globe never mind the NBA. Talk about bad optics, peoples eyes would start to bleed. "Headline: NBA player gives money back to NBA billionaire owner!" Film at 11:00.

Too funny. :lol:
The Accession of Paul Reed is upon us !

You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.
