“I want to let you all know about how absolutely ridiculous most of you people are at life,” Green said. “The fact that a rumor about Andrew Wiggins — I don’t know if it’s true. I’m not here to confirm whether it’s true or not. I really don’t care, like it ain’t got nothing to do with me. You hear stuff like that and you care for like him and her, like and their children. So I care from that perspective. But whether what y’all said is true or not really has no bearing on my life nor does it have any bearing on your life.”

About 28 GMs saw him talking about money and in their minds said ok good luck to you.

lol

What did he say that was wrong?

He said he wants to make as much money as possible and be as successful as possible no matter where that is.

Sounds like pretty much everyone to me.

Oh I didn’t say he said anything that was wrong. I like the guy, from my school. But he’s a mid range player at best. So I guess it just struck me as a bit unusual it even came up at this point. He’s going to get paid by the Lakers though I have no doubt.

And?

He's not allowed to say he wants to make as much as he can?

Some of you sure are clutching pearls over a mid-range player.

First, he's getting too many calls and now...Gasp...he says he wants to make as much money as he can.

The Lakers will definitely offer him a raise. I read that it's likely to be in the neighborhood of 4 years/$50 million, which seems fair. It'll be interesting to see if anyone tops it.

As for it coming up, seems like someone asked him and he answered honestly. With how well he's played, he's earned a raise from someone and the regular season is almost over, so we're likely to see more of these kinds of questions until the playoffs start.

Weak take, imo.

Of course it's not as good as the NBA...99% of those players will be making their living doing something other than playing basketball.

To me, that's part of the fun of it. It's part of why we see wild upsets, etc.

Also, wasn't he a one and done?

Seems like the product would be better if the NBA caliber players stayed longer.
