According to Chris Haynes, Danny Green agreed to drop his debut game bonus from $500k to $200k to help the 76ers build by lowering their tax only to end up being waved.

  1. On the one hand Danny Green has made like $100 mil in his career so that’s a drop in the bucket, on the other that’s pretty foul of the organization

    Probably want to stop taking less money.

    But I’m sure Josh Harris’s tax guy appreciates it.

    6 billion net worth can only go so far.

    CAN’T PROVE IT DANNY GREEN SHOULDVE KNOWN BETTER IDIOT HA HA ITS BUSINESS BRO

    am I Phillying right?

    Daryl Morey’s entire career literally rose and is falling in line with Harden’s rise and decline lol

  5. awmanimallouttacash

    And people still rag on players when they have no “loyalty”

  6. And that’s why I’ll never blame players who look out for themselves

    Well that was silly. You’re clearly on the backend of your career. I wouldn’t have given up a cent I was owed.

    It’s important to remember that no matter how much the media talks about “player empowerment”, that has only ever extended to the top 20 or so players in the league and the vast majority of guys are completely at the whim of their front office

    Man players need to ignore the team and get theirs lol. Even if they play selfishly gotta earn a contract

    NBA teams are still companies and those MFs are greedy

    Doesn’t surprise me, Darryl Morrey is a known liar

    Harden:
    “I said it twice, and y’all blamed me”

    Why would you ever do this as a guy who’s barely hanging on in the league. Maybe he felt comfortable because he’s made a ton of money?

  14. Is he actually losing out on money though?

    He can’t just take less money while within the contract. Restructured means he’s still owed the same amount.

    Almost every NBA contract is fully guaranteed and whether he gets it in a debut bonus or in the rest of the salary doesn’t really matter, unless you want to get nitpicky about interest rates.

    Edit: I looked it up and Green’s is not guaranteed. It has bonuses in October, November and December. I think the Sixers can still pay out the full amount though. Danny’s got a podcast, I’m sure he’ll let us know.

    Danny Green jokes aside – dude does a big Chad move in letting go of $300k for the team – and you fuck him? **WOW**

    Sounds similar to the harden thing. Embiid should get out of there soon.
