John salley a real one I met him in las Vegas coming out of planet Hollywood he told me he was going to do a talk show he still took time out to talk to me an take a pic real genuine guy!!
I agree with John Sally. Staying loyal with one team for you entire career is what makes you great is conjured by the owners, so you can waive all your other options for their benefit. Just like not talking about your salary with your coworkers is something made up by the bosses, so they can keep you in the dark 🤓🧐🤔
I disagree with the one team notion. I think it definitely adds to your greatness staying with the same team if they take care of you n try their best to put pieces around u
@@TheSands83 I respectfully disagree with you on this. I don't think Shaq's greatness dimmed by him playing for 3 different teams. I get it from a fan point,but from a player go where u can win a chip or get the most money. To me Allen Iverson wasted to many years being loyal to the Sixers,then he goes to another team when he's pretty much done with the league. People hate on Lebron but he gave power to the players so they look at it as ur own boss and do what's best for u.

John Salley is one of the most reasonable black ppl Vlad seems to enjoy speaking with I understand entertainment and shock value but these kinda thoughtful conversations are needed as well
This is why fans are idiots for taking the side of the teams and owners whenever players wanna make their own decisions for their own careers, cause the owners are most definitely doing it for themselves.
I will always ALWAYS have upmost respect for John Salley! Watching 👀 📺 him dominate the paint in 🏀 80s & early 90s was truly awesome to experience as kid idolizing the GR8s of NBA in my childhood‼️i feel super fortunate & grateful 🙏 that i got to 👀 & experience so so so many TREMENDOUS athletes & PHENOMENAL dynasties during my childhood throughout 80s and early 90s
@@fungus_am0nguz644 he was a pushover he averaged 1ppg that last championship never averaged 10ppg 7ft never averaged more than 6 rebs cut it out bro championships dont make you a good play Patrick McCaw got 3 chips and nobody know who he is and hes out of the league
If a team offers you a deal, any deal, they set it up so that it works out better for them than it does for you. Either it's below your market value, or they make money on the back end. There is always something shady that they aren't telling you.
The agent made his money. Curry made a lot more money too but blew through pretty much all of it. Had he taken that $400k a year he would’ve still been living a pretty good lucrative life. He could’ve counter offered for an inflation adjustment and that payment would’ve been at around $700k by now.
Yea but he was making less money over the course of 50 years because he wouldn’t be able to get a new deal. If he passed the test they likely don’t pay him, void his player option and he’d be forced to retire bc nobody would resign him. 20 million in 5 years is 10x Better than 20 in 50… literally lol
Every video has all these comments saying “I have so much respect for Salley” etc. I haven’t really seen one respectable thing this guy has said in multiple clips.
What do we expect from somebody that wants to give the police more money so they can buy shit they don’t need, like all the chargers instead of spending the actual funding they do have on productive shit. 😁 but yea, go weird ass lil dude.
@@John2000sBaby and he would’ve been better off taking that $400k a year lol. That’s guaranteed annual 6 figures the rest of your life, no matter WHAT happens
@@John2000sBaby lucky him. He still took the risk, and I respect it…but was it the best choice? If he takes the test at he’s not at risk: great. Keep playing. If the test says you’re at risk: why risk your life?? They were gonna pay him almost as much not to play as he made for playing. Doesn’t make much sense from a health OR financial perspective. But still, his decision to make and I respect it.
@@bigdawg1372 true…but who plays in the nba for 50 years? How much would he have made if he dropped dead on the court? He ended up making about the same for playing as he would’ve for not playing. You’re making $20 million sound like chump change.
They were worried that Eddy Curry might have had a genetic heart defect, a defect that could've killed him (similar to Pete Maravich), so they offered him a contract that would've paid him $400k a year over 50 years if, come to find out, he had that defect. However, if he had the defect, it would've essentially spelled the end of his career because no team would sign him (risk was too high). By not signing, he ended up making more money, and helped nip in the bud a potential precedent that could've been set which would've had all incoming players take DNA tests as a precaution against potential genetic ailments that could limit their long-term ability to play. Of course, they still do intense physicals to forewarn against ailments, but outright DNA tests, as far as I know, haven't been a part of that, and I'm almost certain that the CBA (collective bargaining agreement) would have to explicitly allow for DNA tests to be part of a contractural stipulation.
@@samuellindor7692 and he lost it all and filed bankruptcy because he was terrible with money. If he took the deal no matter how bad he is with his money, it would never stop coming
@@samuellindor7692 that's not beside the point. He broke nigga. Thinking short term is our number 1 problem in the black community and why we can't catch up to the white folks financially and keep falling in the traps. But you speak from greed, not wisdom
I mean: he risked his life and got paid about the same for playing as he could’ve for not playing. The test could’ve potentially saved his life. I respect his decision, but idk that it was the best decision.

Yes, the NBA is a business and the organization is about making money for themselves. The players are maximizing their economic status and both the players and management are trying to get their piece of the pie. Both sides pretend to care about social issues, but only when it's profitable for them. Money corrupts the soul
Crazy he brought up the warriors cause I feel that’s how they did GPII bro had a good finals to be a rookie he hit some big shots played defense well n they shipped him right off
Vlad the type interview you talk to the guest then pillow talk to another guest about the interview you had with that person. Idk shit weird but it works even though it's public interview I guess the way he word it idk but keep dropping that heat vlad
That’s a little over 20 million total …but the fact it’s for 50 years guaranteed…I’m sorry but I like Financial security…idc if I could possibly double it …I like guaranteed money not possible money ..you wouldn’t have to worry about money for 50 years.
200k guaranteed for 50 years is beautiful especially when nba players stop playing and stop having an income. According to statistics we can almost guarantee that majority of the commenters posting dont make $200k a year now and definitely wont make that cosistently over 50 years. I would have took that unless I had a better plan. Idk curry’s situation
Why would he say yes… he just said he made more than $20 mil during his career and he wouldn’t have seen that full $20 mil until he was 70 something years old at $400,000 for 50 years not to mention taxes Ijs 💯

He doubled what he was offered and didn’t put future players under the gun by being the first to oblige to such testing.

Players have to treat basketball as a business get all the Guaranteed Money 💰 that you can👍💯
Curry turned down a 2.5x lottery payout...lottery pays annual payments for 20 yrs if not choosing the lump sum payment
It makes sense that Eddie’s agent said no to that deal lol.. that’s his money gone
His agent was managing a lot of top guys back then lol
The agent made his money. Curry made a lot more money too but blew through pretty much all of it. Had he taken that $400k a year he would’ve still been living a pretty good lucrative life. He could’ve counter offered for an inflation adjustment and that payment would’ve been at around $700k by now.
Im not ssying he made the right or wrong decision but . 20 million working vs 20 million to do whatever you want are not the same thing
Yea but he was making less money over the course of 50 years because he wouldn’t be able to get a new deal.
