So another NBA player has left the league and join another. Lance Stephenson will be joining the Chinese Basketball Association. The guy must have thought it's better to get paid more than chasing a NBA title and get paid less.
I guess this is going to be on trend and other players that doesn't see some good opportunity within the league will also move to other continents to be adopted by their local basketball league. They have family to feed and the exposure they are getting is lesser than what they used to get on other leagues. Good for him, this will also consider that Jeremy Lin is looking forward to go with the CBA.
That was Lin's plan if ever no NBA team will consider picking him this season. Although he's not comfortable with it, he will consider it. Jeremy Lin, although a pure American born citizen, will never escape the shadow of being an Asian. I don't have any evidence to support my claims aside from his poor performance why no teams now in the NBA wants to sign him but he is an ASIAN and it means....
Comparing Lin's age at 30s and his position, there are other NBA players in the league which is way weaker and has a low average stats compare to Jeremy Lin but still able to sign with other teams and happily enjoying a good salary even with limited playing time. Is it really because of performance? age? competition? that's why no team from 82 teams aren't showing interest for this guy?
