Let's hope it kills the stupid one and done rule and pulls these kids towards the D League instead of college.
This is big.
Still too low but it's a lot better than it was. This is probably going to kill South American basketball

People in here really denying racial undertones because they grew up watching phil win rings?

Lot of y'all being weirdos right now regarding the "posse" situation.
It's easy to understand, multiple guys have explained, put aside however you feel about Bron personally even though you don't know him and be objective.
Look at that other quote Phil said up there, he knew what he was saying.

At 70k you're already commanding a greater salary than the majority of entry level college graduates jobs, likely have no restrictions on endorsements and get to learn NBA basketball rather than the sham that is college basketball.Major key alert ...bout time they upped the salaries, now they got a real chance at better players and product in the d league ...I know alotta dudes would rather stay in America for 60 k than the a random place in Serbia somewhere
They should make it 100k but this is a step in the right direction.
Would be amazing to see more talent in the D-League, would improve the development of young players and allow guys to skip college if they wanted.
100k makes this an absolute no brainer but it still seems like an easy decision for those surefire one and done guys.

Nobody is in here saying it's racist now.
Literally the only people using the word "racist" in this entire thread are the ones in here excusing what Phil said or trying to call them "sensitive".
Maverick Carter even said it wasn't racist.
Do ya'll not understand how the topic of race can come up without it being RACIST?
This should be painfully obvious but of course there's going to be "these sensitive black guys pulling the race card again" group that doesn't get it.

Yup, this is where it should be move after the next CBA but NBA is still in cahoots with the NCAA and that would be a major hit for them.
I'm tired of elite prospects being influenced by college coaches who don't utilize pro concepts.
Either change the NCAA rules to be like NBA or let the elite prospects come straight to the D-League and get paid.

This is exactly why race relations in our country suck. You can acknowledge something has racial undertones without it being racist. Instead of rushing to denounce things as sensitivity maybe try I don't know....listening to the people who are explaining what they feel since they probably know more being that it IS their life.

They don't hear you. Dudes in here posting rap videos to justify using posse.
Dudes have already said Phil isn't racist, but there are clearly racial undertones in using that word to refer to a group of black men.
Gah damn.
