    Magic Johnson, as unfortunate as it was, was kind of lucky he retired when he did. Because he signed a 25-year (!!!) $25 million contract in the early 80s, and had he continued to play into the 90s as the salary cap rose, he would have been completely stuck as he still had probably a whole decade left in his contract and there would have been nothing he could’ve done about it.

But he was still just a really good three point shooter with injury issues when he signed the deal.

  • @75aces97
    @75aces97 3 роки тому +5

    Pippen's was comical for a while. I remember he got his extension, then after the first year of his new contract, younger players like Larry Johnson and Derrick Coleman were signing deals paying them 2-3 times more per year than Pippen. Before the rookie contracts were scaled, Webber and Mashburn angled for more than what Pippen was getting, and got it. So here a top 7 player in the league, and one of the best 2-ways, made less than rookies and inferior younger players.

    Nothing against John Starks but in 1992 he got his first major contract. He had been a journeyman up until finding his place on the Knicks. At the time he was looked at more as a 3rd guard/spot starter/energy guy but developed into an All-Star.
    He was underpaid in 1994 but in 1992 that was a pretty good contract for a player who had bounced around the league for a few seasons.

    I think Pippen and Jordan both benefitted from having better teammates around them. Likewise, the Warriors dynasty was a direct result of Stephen Curry making below market value which allowed them to have a better roster around him.

    I don't know why, but most front offices in the NBA value potential so much that they overlook some of the best players out there. Potential sure can pay back so well but a good player should be valued more than a mere prospect.

  • @mike49ers84

    I think some players, that weren't established, would accept less cash for more years to stay with a club that believes in them. It's better then now. Players sign a 1 or 2 year contract, then the player leaves for greener pastures making teams championship window very small.

    Honestly, nothing wrong with taking a low offer to play where you want. The team SHOULD reward that loyalty, if only to build a player-friendly image to attract free agents, but that's not necessary either, Lou simply should have negotiated a no-trade clause to stay.

      The reason why they'll forever be cursed not to win a ring. Tbh, It being a business is just an excuse. There will always be humanitarian reasons for everything. Miami Heat let UD stay for them even if he takes a spot in their rotation after all these years. The Clippers org is just your typical greedy company that has a motto of "it's just business and nothing personal" written all over them.
