    Here's a fun clause that was actually achieved: In 2017, the Blazers dangled a $500,000 bonus for Mo Harkless if he finished the season shooting 35% from three. In his previous two seasons, he shot 18% and 28% from deep.
    In the final week of the 2016-17 season, he was shooting 35.1%. He attempted one three on April 4, and missed. One more miss meant dipping below 35%, so he didn't attempt a single three in the last three games until the season ended on April 12. Easy bag.
    He then went berserk in the playoffs and shot 2/13 (17%) from deep. Golden State swept Portland, 4-0.

      And I heard that on top of that, one of his defenders in the last 3 games knew about that and roasted him for that during the game saying something like: "dont guard his three pointer. He will not take one."

      I remember that. I remember him passing up open shots to protect his bonus. The blazers should've added another clause saying he wasn't allowed to pass up shots in order to get the bonus.

      No, that's not what the clause is about. The point is that when he's free and when he hasn't played for the Chicago Bulls, he could play basketball anywhere else. Be it somewhere in a backyard, or in his famous camps, or anywhere abroad, or anywhere in Venice Beach, or anywhere else...

    Are these bonus clauses in the contract not included in the calculation for the team's salary cap? If yes, then these may sound weird but they could impact the team's flexibility. And if not, is there a guideline on how much teams can give as bonuses as it could be a way for teams to play around with the salary cap.
    Also: I believe Adonal Foyle was a lottery pick so if the MVP clause in his contract is in his rookie deal then maybe his agent put it in there *just* in case.

    On #6 and 7, there are probably more players than we know who have clauses for bonuses in the event of a major award like MVP. From the team's standpoint, why not? If a Luke Ridnour can win DPOY while he's on your team, everybody involved wins.
    One example of a contract structure that sounds wacky now was David Robinson's, where he was always to be one of the 3 highest paid players in the league. So whenever one of the top 2 player salaries went up in a year, he got a new deal. This shows you how different the CBA rules were pre 1998 lockout. There was a salary cap, but how much any player made depended on what players, agents, and teams could negotiate.
    One of the less savory deals was Jayson Williams's in his first few seasons with the Nets. At one point he was one of their better players, but his minutes were restricted, not because of injury, not because of some coach's petty grudge, not even because the team was tanking, but because the Nets would have to pay out salary bonuses if he hit certain scoring and rebounding marks that he almost certainly would have met with reasonable minutes. So the team lost games just to save a few bucks. This wasn't so much an unusual clause as a shady way a team dealt with it.

      First, he also played for the Scottsdale Scorpions. And secondly, no, he didn't keep his salary because of the " love of the game" clause, he just kept receiving his salary because Jerry Reinsdorf, the owner of the Chicago Bulls and the Birmingham Barons and the Chicago White Sox, found Michael Jordan in his Career was very underpaid, so just kept paying his salary as he always did while he was playing baseball.
      In the video there is no connection at all between the "love for the game" clause and the fact that he still got his NBA salary while he was playing baseball.
      Listen better next time.
      and by the way, everyone who played baseball with him and everyone who coached him in baseball confirmed that if Michael Jordan had continued playing baseball and not returned to basketball, he would have ended up in the Major League one hundred percent.
      That was bad at baseball is as much a myth as that was bad at the Washington Wizards. Just inform yourself about it and read articles about it or watch videos about it. Context is the Holy word

    Jordan's clause was by far the best one, and not strange at all. Whoever thinks it's strange, doesn't know what it means to play. I didn't knew it earlier but now I know it, and that's the same opinion that I have about my former self.

    the love of the game clause came about because jordan had broken his foot during his second year. he was playing pickup games (i think at unc) before he was cleared to play with the bulls again and bulls management got upset about it

  • @NasaGrounded10
    @NasaGrounded10 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope those MVP/DPOY clauses for BAD PLAYERS were not the cause of Sketchy agents. They get 10 percent of the deal right? So maybe with a clause the agent can say the deal is technically worth more and take a higher 10 percent. And the player just loses money :/

    @travisolson9413 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've always wondered how these bonuses for meeting certain goals fit into the salary cap? I mean, some of these guys know they aren't getting MVP, so why would they even include it? Why not get $50,000 if you get a vote for MVP? It has to be something that counts against the cap or can be used in a trade to even money out. There has to be a logical reason. Why don't they have realistic goals? $100,000 isn't that much for Collison in his prime. Why not give it to him if he gets 12 or more rebounds a season?
