Stephon Curry and John Wall just signed multiyear contracts averaging over $40 million a year.... More than $1 million a week for each week of the NBA season.. Good money, for sure.. Where do you stand on these large salaries??
FOR the large contract: Who am I to deny the money?? If it makes sense for the franchise, then its not 'out of control'.. People are willing to buy tickets for games and pay for sportswear and other items with the team name and/or logo. It's capitalism in the sense that players are getting what the market is willing to pay, so don't be mad at them. If they can get $100 million a year, so be it.
AGAINST the large contract: $40 million a year is really out of control.. No man is worth that kind of money.... Roughly 100 times the salary of the POTUS(though you have to take into account his benefits during and after his time in office). Fans are getting fleeced with the product.. Players getting richer without necessarily getting better. Ultimately, a 'kick in the shorts' to the hard working fans who support the team.
WHERE DO YOU STAND???
