I took a second, thought about it, and I've still arrived at the conclusion that you're a mindless dunce.

You did a good job of assuring you never earn more than 5 figures during any year of your life.

LOL, you're probably right. All I remember was it was a ridiculous comment over something like $20M a year.

He never won anything, was a ball hog, shot 42.5% from the field(league average is 45.4%), 31.3% from 3(league average is 36%) never lead the league in steals, never led the league in assists, and somehow people still think he's a good player.

He's trash. He's probably the best player to ever play in China, but hell I'd be a top 50 player in China. Anyone who claims AI is any good is instantly removed from NBA credibility; we get it, he's short and played in the NBA but he's complete trash.

It's actually 30 million. But he owes half of it to his ex-wife.

In most cases it's a good idea to take the money ASAP when you consider the time value of money. In AI's case, since he is an idiot, it probably was best for him to have a trust fund.

It's unbelievable how dumb these guys are with money.

Like I said before, he might as well get into coaching to make some money before his big payment in 2030.

He'd be a great role model to inner city kids - he should try to coach HS or AAU ball.

...and then somehow embezzle the car wash fund raising money.

Every time you post on any remotely serious topic, you illustrate you're the farthest thing from smart in this universe.

Worst college coach ever. Lol

College or NBA you'd have to be a colossal train wreck to hire him, but they obviously would be out there.

Philly should hire him. He's a big name there and they're still actively tanking, so having a complete failure of a coach leading them to a 4-win season would be part of the plan.

Players would love it. "Guys here is the game schedule, please arrive no later than the 2nd quarter. If you are looking for scheduled practices on the calendar...there won't be any"

I think he would be an absolute horrible coach. He was the ultimate chucker...shot under 42% for his career. I dont have the time to go check but I bet if you check the top 22 scores in NBA history he has to be at or very near the low end of list in shooting percentage.

I will cut him some slack as a player. Some of the teams he was on, an off balanced fade away shot was probably a better shot than passing the ball to somebody else

He was a 3x NBA steals leader.
