    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>With the NBA's collective bargaining agreement set to expire at the end of the 2011-12 season, James could be positioning himself for an even bigger payday as a free agent when the cap goes up. Under a new agreement, James and other big stars could be in line for deals in the neighborhood of six years and up to $150 million.</div> :ohmy: Don't you think that is a little crazy?

    holy sh*t. That's just retarded. If anyone gives out a contract that big to ANY player, they should be fired.

    What would the cap limit be in 2011? It all depends on that.

    yeah, they'd definitely have to raise the salary cap. bc there is no way they should make it to where one player earns half of the teams salary.

    Are you kidding me? If this goes down that's just downright retarded. $150M/6 years is terrible.

LOLBut for real the bigger the player you are the more body guards you might need. The sports players, actors, singers, they all have to keep them self safe. And they spend a lot of money to keep them self safe. Yes they can pay for the body guard now, but I still think they deserve the money.
