Jay Z: OT

[Black Jesus]

Alright, in this new Jay Z song, Empire State of mind- instant classic by the way, he says:

"If Jeezy paying LeBron I'm paying Dwyane Waaaade."

As part owner of the Nets, who freed up cap space for 2010, and Nets changing name to Brooklyn-genious, noone represents NJ, it makes sense that they will get one of the two players.

That being said does he say Jesus or Jeezy, and if so who does Jeezy part own? The Hawks?

 

[PoolBoy]

just search google for the lyrics. or wikipedia jeezy.

 

[arwillan]

"said I used to play Kobe, but now I play lebron"

Quote from the Jeezy song, 24-23. (http://lyrics.url.com/show/5243/young-jeezy/24-23-kobe-lebron-lyrics)

Jay-Z is just referencing that song, not saying he's gonna land either of them in 2010.

I can't tell if you are trying to be funny or serious.

Thats usually the sign of a good joke, no?

We are talking about NBA trades after all....

When the russian really buy the Nets and move to Brooklyn, that's not a joke anymore.

The billionaires have one logic only, sign/buy the best players and win the championship in 1 or 2 years plan.

Signing these UFA is just cost him a small amount of money. He's going to change NBA.

you forgot about the thing called the salary cap....makes it impossible to load up on FA's like that

 

[YouJustGotSUNSD]

Harris
Wade
LeBron

Lopez

pretty legit by itself

NY and NJ can prob both afford two max contracts next summer. They will be interesting teams this time next year.

I'm tempted to try to explain to you how the salary cap works, but I don't think it will help.

Salary Cap Rule 1:

Salary cap only applying for owner who caring about salary cap.

I figured it had to be a joke when you gave Lebron James about 120M more than is possible via the CBA.

Also, if he signs with another team, he can only sign a 5 year deal, not 6.

You can't "forget about" something you never understood in the first place.
