LeBron Garnett Allen.......Kirilenko. See the difference ? Money was no issue for the first 3, they were minting off endorsements (except maybe Allen).
Plus its a whole diff. story going from 10m to 3m than it is from 28m to 18m. If we was leaving 7mill to go to a team like Miami then MAYBE i'd understand. But to leave 7mill dollars and only make $3m in a year to go to a team that is not even a lock to make the Finals is absurd.
I guess we'll never know whats really going on, but IMO i think its a very stupid move if infact he's not getting paid anything extra and just the 3m.
