I'm just trying to illustrate that it isn't fair or normal to cheat a guy because of an injury, especially a freak one.

Business isn't fair and no one is cheating anyone. Injuries are a part of sports, and injuries change players. Until a contract is signed, either party can back up and change the parameters.

Are you suggesting that if a team said during a season "Hey we want you back next year and are willing to do whatever it takes" and then that player has a career ending injury...the team should still pay him?

Of course not, it is absurd.

Its kind of F'd up. I don't get how people are rooting for him or are fans of his, but at the same time want to get over on him or rip him off. Its weird.


We are fans of the team. If Boogie left I wouldn't spend another second thinking about him.

We want the team to get the best deal possible for the TEAM. There are actual, real, long-lasting implications on how much we pay players this offseason due to the LuxTax/Repeater tax.

Do me a favor. Name me a top 10ish NBA player in the prime of his career that took a discount because of injury..

Sorry, or only got offered a lower contract due to injury..
