2024 NBA Season

[danherbias07]

Jalen Brunson renewed his contract with the Knicks for 4 years, 156.5 million dollars.
If Brunson had renewed his contract next year instead of this year, he would have earned 5 years and 269 million dollars. However, Brunson wanted to give his team "financial comfort".
This is how Brunson supported his team for the championship.

He cannot do it alone, I think that is what he meant for accepting the contract now. He needs help and obviously, money is needed if you want better players to be on your side.
How I wish all superstars think like Brunson especially if your goal is a championship and not just the money. The same goes with Lebron James who is ready to cut some of his salary just to get a new star player in their roster. Sacrifices.
Also, I think he doesn't want to look bad when he cannot win a championship and we all know how New York treats the players, there's always the pressure.

I do not think that Nike had anything to do with this, I think Lebron was the one who built this team to be fair. And aside from Embiid, who is clearly not American and not like "oh he is black" type of racist thing, dude spent most of his life in another nation and was born there, if you are born on a nation but you have parents who were born in another, then I support you being on a team for a nation that you are born in, but this dude wasn't even born here.

Aside from him, they brought in some of the big guns and I am sure that they are going to do very well. I do not think that anyone will get even close to them, this isn't some ok players team, this is the stars and nobody has any players that is even close to this level.

Yes, and probably it was something to do with his Father as well, who is the assistant coach of New York Knicks, so at least he respect and give Knicks a leeway somewhat and instead of signing it for next year for a max contract for him, might be better this year and then see how it goes not just for Jalen but for other teams as the Knicks could still sign some good players to be added so that they will be a complete team and could make a good run just like they did last season. I think Lebron also do that this season and willing to have a pay cut just to get players like DeRozan and Klay Thompson, but it went to nothing though.

Based on his bio. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Embiid

he is an "Cameroonian / French / American"

So he could play with either of these three national teams,  ... But he chose America, so I think there's no problem with that. In our national team, there's even one naturalized citizen who's a foreigner, but since it's allowed, that's fine.

I think we are talking too much about Brown's complaint. It's time to rest that and give Team USA peace of mind and wish them the best.
