🚨 Scottie Barnes to sign 5-yr/$270M extension 💰 ‘THE MONEY IS GETTING ABSURD!’ | The Pat McAfee Show



🚨 Scottie Barnes to sign 5-yr/$270M extension 💰 ‘THE MONEY IS GETTING ABSURD!’ | The Pat McAfee Show

has signed a 5year $270 million extension to remain with the Toronto Raptors remember the NBA has a bunch of rules in place where if you stay with the team that you started with and that you’re on you’re up for more money than before Tatum’s up for like 315 million because of the all MBA tags and how long he’s been there there’s a lot of different circumstances that up the amount of money you can get paid from the team in which you’re on because they didn’t want the hedo situation to just become a B Bo Scotty Barnes Florida State averaged 20 points eight rebounds rebounds six assists last year is now with the Toronto Raptors for another five years of 270 million the highest played paid player in Toronto Raptors history yeah T-Mac used to do some sweet up there Ka oh yeah there was incredible times up there for the Toronto Raptors They just won uh yeah 2019 2019 and now Scotty Barn’s going to take him back there they stunk this year yeah they were horrible well they had guys uh betting against themselves on that team trying to miss threes yeah that’s right taking themselves out suing themselves do you remember this do you know there what happened here guy was actually betting against himself on that team they got him out Scotty Barnes is in Everybody Loves Scotty Barnes I checked the internet literally everybody loves Scotty Barnes debuts I think it’s is a good signing for the Toronto rap good player uh Florida boy still young you know this is the price of doing business in the NBA you average 28 and6 you’re going to get Max you’re going to be the highest paid player most likely in that franchise history so what happened with Jaylen Brown obviously a great player but 300 Tatum pass that so um great for Scotty obviously and great for obviously the young I think Kate even coming off one of the worst probably the worst season in NBA history he’s about to get maxed out too so um it’s good to be you know 610 and athletic yeah I would say uh I wish I could do that uh that would be very cool especially with where these NBA contracts are headed uh one or 275 is what Trevor Lawrence got paid and everybody lost their mind right Scotty Barnes just got 270 million we like Scotty bar fully guaranteed this is fully guaranteed this is a lot different than any these MBA guys sign these deals though that are just absolutely absurd heard of Scotty Barnes before so this is a different story but there’ll be somebody that’ll come out this offseason in the NBA and I think end of June is a big time because a lot of guys either opt in or opt out of their contracts and then goes wild brother I mean that’s kind of how it goes if players are staying with their own teams they can negotiate right now so we’ll hear more of those numbers but some of these PID checks that some I don’t know how much merch they move I don’t know how many beers people are buying I don’t know how many points they’re putting but some not Scotty Barnes some of these guys averaging like four points 10 rebound or nine rebounds and like two assists uh $500 million guaranteed that’s the NBA good for them over there yeah I mean you got guys who are are making like top end wide receiver money like I mean Derek white again he’s I wouldn’t say he’s like a massive Superstar obviously but he’s very good he he fulfills his role they’re talking about him making 30 some million dollar with his a year with his next contract like it’s just it’s the expectation it kind of begs the the question like if you have if you’re an elite athlete and you have the ability to play one or the other like why would any of these guys play anything other than basketball because a lot of these stories come out um that it’s not like choosing football or basketball it’s like football kind of told him you know hey you’re going to go play basketball you’re a basketball uh there’s been so many sto Austin Rivers was the first one and then I heard um Memphis guy former Memphis Grizzly Dylan Brooks no I know Charles Barkley he he had a similar story with football who’s the bigger guy Lefty oh Zebo I I think Z I think he told a story about how football something happened and he was like I I want fight like this is not how I’m going to go play basketball where football practice like creates uh basketball players for some cases but also some guys I think know that they’re going to be like 610 yeah mhm and if you’re 610 athletic and you’re not working on your threes or if your if your parents are both over 6 foot tall or 6’4 and you have a chance to go to the NBA with the prices that they are getting paid right now and you don’t put up a thousand shots a day I think you’re doing yourself a disservice that’s like whenever you go to a club and you see a s foot tall Bouncer and you ask did you play professional basketball they say no he’s got a questioner working yeah you’re seven foot tall all you had to do back in the day a 7 foot tall was just literally get from one end of the court to the other and just stand there that’s right so if you’re tall or have a chance being being tall boy you need to get in on what the NBA is cooking right now money is huge and if you can shoot which it seems like it’s going it what’s wemy GNA make oh my God what is w he’ll be a billionaire he’ll legitimately by the time he’s 28 be a billionaire good for that hey good for you NBA do good for you NBA life is good Cole that’s your contract right that’s what you signed with the WWE oh yeah a billion nice job you imagine Michael Cole is a billionaire yeah were you going to be a sports guy ever I’ll tell you what if I was a billionaire you wouldn’t see me having 4-Hour delays so I couldn’t go out for dinner with you guys I guarantee you that I had my own Jet Michael Co 27 years in the WWE has only missed three shows okay W yes three shows I’ve been assigned to I want to make that clear like I don’t show up to SmackDown every Friday night uh free Michael Hayes actually does show up every show that he ever so he’s a guy that deserves that type of credit but you’ve missed three shows in 27 years on on your schedule mhm commercial travel everywhere God how many miles do you have with these people 3 million United 3 million American 2 million Delta Jes holy my God you paid for I was doing it yeah legit and my wife flies uh under those same criteria so so we so you don’t see there are perks don’t get me wrong commercial travel there are some perks [Music] [Applause] [Music] NBA ony is

  1. It's now getting fucked up that they charge for tickets in the arena and the food/drinks.
    Why not do tickets through a lottory and maybe have the court side seats be for biggest donors to local charities. The boxes can still pay.

  2. You figure the bubble eventually is going to burst and we'll be headed toward another lockout, right? Happy for the athletes getting paid, but this doesn't seem to make long-term market sense for the NBA.

  3. And just think of they gave the RoTY award to the Actual Rookie that deserved it Toronto wouldn't be in the position to have to sign him to that insane contract.. I'm sorry but Scottie Barnes is not worth 200 plus million he still needs to prove way more than he has to even get close to that mark it was almost as dumb as giving Tobias Harris superstar money and he does way more than Scottie but even he wasnt worth that 180 million

  4. for those thinking “overpay”.. you’ll see a real overpay when the other dudes from his draft class sign the same contract lol 😂

  5. He can actually play he gone get better and better he put up good numbers still young and he still learning he gone get better in those 5 years

  6. NBA contracts are absolutely insane. $54mil a year for a kid that’s never come close to winning anything, and his team sucks. Whatre you paying for?? No wonder so many teams find it so hard to build a contender now, especially when 1 guy is making half your payroll

  7. Scottie is about top 10% in NBA production, former ROTY, was potential MIP this year if he didn't break finger and have his team completely implode around him all season. Frankly if they didn't sign him it would be franchise suicide for 5-10 years for the Raptors.

  8. Never gonna hate on a player getting paid but feels like they’re giving him an albatross contract so it’s harder for him to leave if they continue to fumble building that team (which they will)

  9. He's not worth it. give that cash to Quickley and Barrett because they get you buckets night in night out.
    He did improve from the previous year but I have my doubts.

  10. It I'm Johnathon kaminga if warriors ain't giving me 160m plus I'm out Steve Kerr stopped his growth and didn't give him minutes in the beginning of his career

  11. Schottie don’t even play that good to get that much bread He not gone play hard after you gave him all that money !

  12. Amazing news for Raps! Guys, he just not Big and Athletic…this guy is a Superstar! He is must watch! Those numbers does not do justice! Just hope he don't injuries.

  13. It makes sense short term because he’s all they have “all star” wise but long term, it’s not a great contract for the raptors! He’s an undersized big and an oversized wing! He doesn’t have ball handling skills which will turn out to be an issue for a player being paid max! He’s an OG/Shawn Marion type! ELITE level Role player but still a role player! I know raptors fans will attack this take as they’re freaking over his “potential” but you’re gonna be watching 5 years of mediocre basketball with AMAZING stats but no wins! No he is not “like Giannis” giannis is 7 feet! No he is not “like Kawhi”, Kawhi can DOMINATE in ISO with his balk handling skills! You just gave a better version of AARON GORDON a MAX! Good for him, good for yall but… yall ain’t winning much! Just pay my boy Quickley since yall throwing out cash!

  14. He’s the 4th overall pick. He won ROY and made the all star team in his 3rd season. The dude is worth the money considering Raptors don’t have any bad contracts that most teams have.

    Considering the guys drafted in front of him Cade, Green, Mobley, and the guy drafted after him Suggs. None of those players are close to max players and teams will have to make some choices this summer and next. This was easy for the Raptors as he is their entire future.

  15. These guys are forgetting about TAXES! Wemby might have over a BILLION dollars in contracts for playing in the NBA but he’ll have to pay 37% of his contract to Federal Income tax and more in state income tax!

    The State income tax paid is determined by the amount of games you play in those States. I.E. a Florida or Texas based NBA players get a bigger portion of their contract since they play over 50% of their games in a state with no income tax. Where a California or NY based player will pay an EXTRA 10-13% income tax for every home game played! 

    And then if you play in CANADA like Scottie you get a royal hockey stick up the rear end when it comes to paying taxes!

  16. I like these guys’ banter but to think that Derrick White is going to be overpaid at the contract they’ll give him, shows me how little they know about basketball contracts.
