Now that the NCAA Tournament is over and Louisville has gone to the crib with the hardware boyz are starting to announce their plans to leave school early to go to the NBA. The crazy thing is everybody and their momma has an opinion about it. The problem I have with those so-called expert opinions is that boyz are spittin' foolishness. The cats that are talking aren’t making sense including Charles Barkley. Now normally I’m all in with Chuck but this time he’s giving the brotherhood half-truths playboy. In hood terms he's talking crazy!
I do agree with him when he says that guys leaving school early is hurting the college game. Fact!! He also says that many of these same cats aren’t always prepared to play in the NBA. Fact! Then he goes on to say that boyz should stay in school for those reasons. That’s when the freaking train comes off of the tracks playa.
Is it the player’s fault that the NBA is offering them jobs to make millions of dollars at 18 and 19 years old? You sound like a fool telling a kid to stay in school and he can make $4.6 million in year one like Michael Kidd-Gilcrist coming out of Kentucky did last year as the No. 2 pick or $2.6 million like Andre Drummond did coming out of Connecticut as the No. 6 pick. It’s asinine to tell a kid that he shouldn’t take the freaking job if it’s offered. Yes it's hurting the college game but the kid doesn't care about the college game bruh! He's in it for himself! He's not a fan!!!
The rookie contracts have changed with the new CBA which makes it a 2 year guarantee with two additional years as the teams option. So a boy could get cut after two years if in fact he isn’t ready but I’m still trying to figure what the problem is? Unless you can tell me where else he’s gonna make millions of dollars playing a freaking game then he made the right decision. Even if he only plays two years!
Everybody’s not gonna be a stud in the NBA playa. Everybody’s not gonna play for an extended period of time. Somebody’s gotta be a superstar, somebody’s gotta come off of the bench and somebody’s gotta sit that joint. So if you gotta be him, I say why not! The Yiddish must have been reading my joints because they kept it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st too by saying, “If a man is destined to drown, he will drown even in a spoon full of water.” If he's gonna get cut, he’s gonna get cut whether he stays one or four years playa! Staying in school longer isn’t going to change his DNA because the cat that is better is going to still be better!
Sitting on the bench in the NBA sure is better than starting in college working for free and making somebody else a boat load of money. If you come out early you can pay for your own education. That’s if you even want or need it. Y’all do realize that everybody doesn’t NEED a college degree to become successful in this world right?
The same Smart Phone or Windows joint you’re reading this article on was invented by some genius without a degree. I’m just sayin’! You do realize that people that have the ability to play professional sports are geniuses? There are only 450 NBA jobs in the WORLD bruh! If he’s good enough to fill one then he’s ready for the NBA. They aren't just going out on the street giving just any cat an NBA contract.
Boyz get confused when they hear, “He ain’t ready!” Being ready to play and being ready to get paid are two different things pimpin’! Was it Kwame Brown’s fault that the NBA was dumb enough to draft him in the 1st round? Not at all! He took the job that was offered. An old timer once told me that you are always worth what people are willing to pay you. So for duns to get on these sports radio shows and say that a cat should stay in school is nonsense because if somebody offered them $4.6 million to clean toilets for a year they would have dropped out of school too.
The hypocrisy of it all makes me nauseous! Barkley and any other cat out there knows full well that if the NBA had offered them $4.6 million to come out of school after their freshman year they would have been the first person in the green room drinking all of the Kool Aid. So stop it! Just stop it!
Boyz act like they can't remember Big Momma struggling back at the crib trying to take care of younger siblings and seeing an opportunity to move them out of the ghetto. Just because you got rich playboy doesn't mean that other cats aren't still struggling out here. You got your bread so how are you going to tell another boy not to get his money just because they offered it to him two years earlier. "Sound like a hater mayne!"
Every kid in the first round last year is making at least $1 million. The top 11 or making a minimum of $2 million and the top 5 are making at least $3.3 million. So unless you’re doing some different kind of math stop talking crazy playboy. Remember when ole boy Quick in Harlem Nights asked the Champ was he ready? He said, "Wa Wa Weady? Sh Sh Sh%$ Yeah! I'm Weady!" That's these young boyz!
