    Indeed. It seems the Trotters might need to get everyone involved in the act anyway. If he signed with the Washington Generals then he could really be himself.

    I hear ya T.
    What the hell do the quivering masses expect for a lousy $378K per game? It's hardly worth suiting up.....

    I'm really bad at decimal points, so I did see this.

    I think it's only $37.8k per game. And that's before taxes too!!

    :MusicBigGrin:

    So, total league salaries last year divided by points scored is $8,731. That's how much it cost to score a single point.

    So, $3.1MM / 8.731 = 355

    355 / 82 = 4.3.

    So, if AI were to score anything over 4.3 points per game, he would be a steal.

    Re: Memphis gets rolled..

    So all he has to do is take it inside and dust the floor with his hiney 3 times a game and the Grizz are in the bonus?!? Geez - that mi amigo is a steal. I guess that's just about 19k per shoe tied per game?

    He was averaging about 22 minutes per game, so he was pulling about $1727 per minute, what's he complaining about? His earnings per minute decrease for each additional minute played, he should've been trying to play 3.7 minuters per, then he'd be pulling a cool $10,000 per minute!

    $3.1MM doesn't go very far in the NBA these days.
