also the international tournaments dont mean much to the american players. its like the superbowl for the international teams though.

and you guys also have to remember that the salaries are so high because the league makes a ton of money, probably 2nd best league money making wise in america behind NFL.

if im making money on that list, playing for a nba team in the best league in the world, why would i care about putting more extra energy into an international competition?

SportSavant · Nov 17, 2006

The sick thing is, these guys would play for 1/10th the amont, its still way way more than they would ever make in real life.

maybe you are right, what you are saying is todays NBA player cares only about MONEY and has no interest in PRIDE OR COUNTRY, no integrity, no sense of competition.

What a bunch of character guys!!!!

These guys are more concerned on there teams performance in there league, instead of the world championships that recently occurred. Olympics will be a different story, especially with the players having to take these 4 year committments now.
