Yeah and Carmelo and his white agent were dumb for that too.

Ehhh he might not be lying but it’s too much talent out there to develop to be crying foul. Also there are nba guys loyal to their trainers.
The agent works for you, not the other way around. Especially after you’ve reached a level.

I don’t think Klutch goofed at all. They just doing what most players would want their agent to do.
Magic doesn’t know the art of negotiation. Lakers front office goofed.

Lol I don't get it
I don't see how voiding a contract at the point you're breaking it is like the nfl
For example if you're guaranteed 100 mil for 5 years and you do something to void the contract, you only get 80.. I think that's fair.
I don't see what's racist about expecting consequences when someone dishonors a contract. It can be a white player demanding a trade and I'd still feel the same way.
Literally the rest of the world there are consequences for not respecting a contract.
It's like if someone signs a non disclosure agreement. You can't expect to dishonor it and expect not to get sued.

Your profession is your life. This is what you do, it is how you support your family and legacy. You can lose your life while losing your livelihood. It is easy to walk into a room and not be thought of as a messenger or waiter when you aren't black, as white privilege allows you the benefit of the doubt. Being white is the ultimate race card. It opens doors much quicker than any card known to mankind. The story is that the Black man walks into a room with a suit on, he must be looking for a job. The white man walks into a room with a suit on, he owns the entire office, then might be interviewing you. Image is that thing, and white people have it even if they are some orange trash sitting in the white house.

can we stop using "pulling the race card" tho?
that **** is like from another era.
the only people who are pulling the race card are those who use that term to squash debate when people of color are working to get theirs
you've resorted to these tried antics in the knicks thread in the past. you should know better than this,. or maybe not since you refuse to accept the notion the certain people are granted certain privileges in this country solely based on the color of their skin. stop it already

And Melo put Brickley on
Right.
I don’t know him personally but Kuz’s trainer sometimes hates on other guys and I’m like for what? Kuz is going to have him in high demand.

dudes been conditioned into thinking that they'll eventually reap the benefits of old rich people trickling down the money in their direction.

Case in point.
Also, dudes need to focus on being a good player development guy instead of always trying to catch a kid on the rise. Treat that 3 star kid like he’s got potential to be a 5 star kid. And stop trying to sleep with these kids mommas.

Lebron and then need to get together and make their own league. They have the money and the voice to do it. That would be taking a stand. 4-5 years of taking top recruits and the nba would be in shambles. Give them the real **** you

What do you do for a living? What field are you in? Because for someone to type this they must’ve went through a lot. Maybe my experience was different but not once was interviewed by a white man/woman and I work in health care. So we def have different experiences.
Maybe “pulling the race card” was the wrong choice of words there so I apologize if it offended anyone.
But I believe in working hard and knowing the right people to achieve success. I’m white and failed numerous times, but eventually you reach your goals with the right persistence. I also live in the most diverse city on this planet, so maybe that plays a part as well.

Man it’s cruel in the sports game. (For football) In HS recruits would come out for big games And get the best prospects to run a 40 for them. They hit above a certain time and almost like in the movies before they hit the end of it you can watch all the recruiters pack up and leave heads in their phone, tires screeching out the parking lot, on to the next school. That’s it, future gone

I don’t believe half the **** I type in the Knicks thread tbh. I just like being pessimistic about us.
I 100% agree that certain people are granted privileges due to their skin color. But I don’t like using that as an excuse in failure. I was an immigrant in this country at one point. You work hard, network, you’ll get want you want.

Folks who care that much about another man's income make me wonder. Especially when you're trying to scheme up ways to take away another man's money on top of it
