Blake Griffin, Clippers agree on 5 year $95 million deal

[ihoopallday]

Give me 500k and I can make a decent life...

Lol some of these guys make more money in one game than most people do in a year. Kobe makes $259,298.76 per game.

thats 5 years of salary for someone making 50k a year made in a game. I guess all those hours in the gym pay off

[brandonislegend]

think Amare with rebounding passing good handles a post game and solid defense how is that not a top 5 player in the game

Solid defense? a post game?

$339 621/game

Yeah you're right. His salary 27,849,000/82 is 339 621. Lol guess I should've done the math myself instead of looking it up. Wow, must be nice.

[TexasBloodMoney]

Any player getting paid more than Lebron (or KD) is overpaid.

Griffin doesn't have a post game? Were you given soy milk as a child?

Oh and s/o to the morons who said Sterling would never pay him.

Who the hell said that? Why wouldn't they pay him.

[Fiasco]

A lot of brilliant posters were going on about how cheap Sterling was and how he would never pay Griffin the money he deserved for an extension.

Cha-ching!
I would be damn hell motivated to play each game.

This makes me wonder, how do rookies deal with it? I know they don't make as much.. but it's still NBA money. I would love to see documentaries on how NBA rookies deal with their suddenly incredible bank account. It also must be daunting to walk into a locker room, knowing they're all multi-millionaires, and you're just a chump

[senelcoolidge]

people that still think he only dunks.

He's a good player and could become a great player. The Clippers are basically blessed to have gotten this guy in that 2009 draft. These type of players don't come around often.

I seriously doubt that. Sterling could be in his prime cheap-ass years and he'd still be smart enough to pay Griffin. Even if he doesn't develop and ends up overpaid like Amare he still brings in a ton of revenue for the Clips.

[liquidrage]

LOL at the Clippers for this. He's paid like KD plays like Shawn Kemp.
