The NBA’s Most Overpaid Players, April 4, 2013

 “Tom, You only named 10 and  there are probably a couple of 100 more ” But guess what, it’s really not their fault because you have dumb management people who are willing to pay them. Another example is  you have players nowadays that are playing 14,15,16 years and they are making so much money, that you’re going to have to burn the uniform off of them. Don’t misunderstand what I am saying, as I said before,as long as there is some dumb-ass willing to pay them, they’ll keep playing.
