i can easily name 10-15 or even 20 players who deserve a contract like that more than him
and nowadays because of all social media, tmz, etc. we (general public) also know if something bad happens off the court.

The media makes alot of hype for certain player and that makes them overrated although that they have only a decent performance. This is one way of getting popularity and get yourself a great contract otherwise you wont really get it just by playing great on the court everytime ( wait , you can be good on the court ALL the time though )

You are especially social media in which people or then fans of that certain player show some of its highlights it allows the palywr to become more popular and gain fans which i think leads the management to see and know it. The tendency then is that dince they saw how good the player is because of the highlights the will get it

Player highlights alone can't get you too far if that is the only thing you can show for. The management isn't that stupid too rely on just video clips and signing a player because he is hyped by social media. That assumption is rather flawed since we all know that the best players are those who work the hardest and make their game speak for it.

Well i haven't said that players highlight alone can get you too far, i have only said that it would be a great boost for them as they become more popular and when management means business having a lots of fans will surely be considered. We cant deny the fact that everything also comes to business, no matter how good you are but when you were left behind of the competition you surely eithier get a slot

NBA is an entertainment so they would value more on the entertainment than the real competition, some games are intentionally rigged in order for the fans to witness a close games and that would make them feel the thrill and will get the worth of their money, that is NBA and player with so much publicity will be more popular and will help the NBA to stay profitable.

What can you expect for? Im sure they would invest on very known player because no one would provably love to see a player whos fame is questionable thats why they will go to players who have more reputation since it cam give more money to them, but i dont think the game time was payed but the players itself because they can give competitive win's on those basket and any of those stronger team can give 0-4 records as i've seen in nba.

That is NBA where amazing happens as they say, everything is all about the profit even at the Jordan era. They are promoting players for the NBA to be well known in every part of the world. Base on my analysis, after Jordan era, it was Kobe Bryant and now it is the time of Lebron James, so I would tell you fellas don't bet against the king.

Well i cant argue with you dude. Lebron really is too good but i dont think that is to be considered as the new king and this is his era. Well sorry because i am a curry fan so i must go with him thru thick and thin. Come on guys NBA is a business model type. Not all you saw was all true. Just my perspective tho
