Rich gets richer, poor gets poorer?? ..As a kid in 1981, I thought Magic's

..$25 million contract was astronomical but looks to be pocket change now compared to some of today's NBA players' contracts. Their pay definitely rises much faster than inflation so they continue to get richer:

"Kevin Durant will sign 4-year, $164 million deal with the Brooklyn Nets"

And here's the kicker, he could've gotten $57 million more...

I believe Kyrie also took less than the max to allow another player to be signed a four year deal.

This year will be the year of the nets. 

Consider durant healthy enough to play and even without durant, the nets were not too shabby last season and now they got irving and deandre jordan too? 

game over yall.  Net's in the playoffs and possible to win it all. 

nets and lakers will be two teams worth watching.  lebum is playing mad and now he got help from davis. 

forget golden state.  Without durant, they are done.   Maybe win 60% of their games. 

Bet on future zion williamson to win the rookie of the year award.  Odds -150

If zion can take the pelicans to win it all, we will have a true star being born.  Right now, zion is just for entertainment and show only.  Like the other white monkey blake griffin.   :2funny:
