NBA Players Who Got Greedy, Then Regretted It

signing for 600k is a 96% decrease from 17m, not 66%.

[@nathaniel5059]

Nerlens noel signing for 4m instead of 70m is a 94% decrease, not 77%. (70-4)/70 = 94.3. Who did the math for your video?

he’s almost correct. with the 17M for 6 years deal he’d be earning about 2.83M per year. but he sign 600k/1 year. that’s about 79% loss on a yearly basis. might have been 66% if you take away the 830k.😂

Lots of people said that “greedy” players ruined the game, it’s true to a certain extent..IMO, I think greedy agents are way worse than players when it comes to ruining the game.

Yep, rich Paul is one of the worst. Especially with what he did to Nerlens Noel. Literally didn’t call back teams that wanted him. Hope he wins his lawsuit against him

[@aka1721]

A lot of the examples here led to players firing their agents because the players thought they were worth more lol.

Just remember if you decide to bet on yourself that it's not a sure thing and it only takes one mistake to take all your dreams away. I understand players believing in themselves but if only 1 team is making an offer don't just assume every other team is wanting quietly.
