Europe Is Plundering NBA Players

 
Europe took Josh Childress, now Carlos Arroyo. The next might be LeBron James or Kobe Bryant. Europe took Arroyo by offering him $30 million, more than anyone would ever make in the NBA! And Arroyo isn't worthy of making that much money playing basketball. Now the Europeans want James and Bryant. If players are smart and want to be considered legends in the NBA, they will stay and make about $20 to $40 million. When you make as much money as they do, you don't need more. Reports say they offered LeBron $50 million. This year, James make about $5 million in salary and $30 million in endorsements. Eventually, Europe will take over the NBA. If the NBA wants to keep their players, they might want to make the salary cap a little bit larger. But in this economy, that is almost impossible. (link)
