  • “What’s wrong with him I work at meineke”😂😂😂😂😂😂 funniest thing I’ve heard today
  • This is one of the most slept on interviews and one of his best guests. They dropped so much gems and the business of basketball. They spoke to it from the players perspective that few have never spoke to

    mero just be cracking jokes at the wrong time lol

    What these guys are discussing is a GREAT, FANTASTIC initiative. They're showing black athletes how to be responsible and mature with their careers, earnings and lives. I can't applaud this enough. This is GREAT.
  • They say We family when they want you to stay. Then it’s business when they want to cut you.
  • Klay is right for wanting more money and Warriors right for giving less. They both can get what they want by looking elsewhere. Win win for both parties. There shouldn't be any hatred towards either..
  • @JimmyEmoz
    I like how players speak about these business situations, like normal people don't deal with it real life for way less money 😅

    This what happened to Dwade in 2016. Heat wanted to pay that man 10mill he got 16mill but should’ve gotten paid more. He lead the heat to a game 7 against the raptors without Chris Bosh. And the heat organization still didn't think he was worth more. Thats why he left to chicago.

    It’s always business no matter what they tell you. I learned it in Corp America, when I was a young buck and a VP of 30 years got canned. Everybody expendable. Get your paper UP FRONT in base pay…no exceptions.

    man I hope these young athletes are watching this!
  • @eamparbeng
    The world of professional sports is ruthless in general. You don't get what you think you deserve, but what you have the leverage to negotiate
  • @OGARYTV
    That last sales speech from Andre Won Me and Melo Over 😆
  • @redman6790
    I've always said what Dre said "if they paying all these players millions, how much do they have?!". Read up 40 million dollar slave, great book that talks about this topic.
  • @godeukhong
    This is the most real business conversation I’ve heard applied. Applies to everything!!!

    Klay forgot that GSW as an organization was behind him through both injuries and defended him when every single analyst was saying he was done/washed. Not to mention they gave him MAX while he was out, they offered him a contract extension mid-season now he'll have to take less without guarantees.
