Would you take less money if it helped you get closer to a championship?

    Completely hypothetical and none of us will ever have a choice to leave millions on the table but my question is could you and would you really be able to walk away from millions to help give team better chance at building championship. Honestly don’t know if I could, you see players sign with other teams and take less money for chance to play for championship so what’s the difference.

    It depends on where you are in your career. Usually it’s guys at the end who want a ring.
