If they ASSumed that, they are idiots.
Given an opportunity others cannot get. Much like many others, unable to manage his finances. Its a hard lesson to learn.
Hope he straightens it all out and grows from this.
Sometimes I feel like Bonner is the one of the few out there with a good head on his shoulders. He knows he'll never make this kind of money again. Lives below his means.
Matt Bonner strikes me as Roger Dorn, sucks as a player but will be good in a front office position much like Danny Ferry.
Where is playblair? The silence from him is deafening.
Antoine Walker had net earnings of $108M over his NBA career, and he had to file for bankruptcy. Unbelievable.
"In 2010, Walker filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. He reported assets of $4.3 million and $12.7 million in debt."
This must have been those Spurs chains he was wearing in his ty, auto-tuned Youtube vids..

I can't have faith in the management skills of someone who had Billy Hunter's back even when it was widely known he was crooked last year when Fisher first tried to force him out.
Damn that's wack. I'm a big Blair fan and wish him nothing the best when he gets somewhere he can play next season, but god that was bad.
Yeah, Big Fella literally has no singing talent, w/ or without AutoTune.. I bet he paid the 53K for the two spurs jersey diamond pendant/chains, and probably spent a good portion of the rest of the Rookie deal on either his own studio, or studio time to put P.O.P down..
Wow...yeah, Blair is gonna be gone soon...
A Spurs spokesman declined comment Tuesday. The general counsel for the Spurs referred questions to his agent Happy Walters.
Seriously? His agent's name is "Happy Walters"?
funny story(y'all seen the photos), i went to blairs & hills bowling thing during blairs rookie season and a couple friends went with me. blair and hill bought everyone pizza, drinks, and paid for us all to go bowling. when i was leaving i tried giving blair $20 or $30 back and told him, "i just wanted to thank you for this and didn't want to take advantage", and well blair said, "i don't need this", and he proceeded to throw the money back in my face and i picked it up off the ground and left.
sucks to know the dude is in the position he is at the moment and hopefully he figures it all out in the end, gets a new contract some place else, and gets his straight. sucks to see the dude struggling on and off the court.
That sure is a lot of slang up in there, but my damn, it's all true.
Terrible story, but not surprising in the least - especially in this "bling-bling" era of the spend-happy athlete.
What a great way to mark your final days as a Spur.
LMAO @ that.. after the way he dissed WGAF about how his ty career will wind up..
LOL! I credit that to too much drinking on my front stoop w/ the locals in my old DC 'hood!
Drunk Glenn,Diamond Dave,Too Tall ,Hobo Mike and the crew learned me good in that decade or so of debauchery.
You havent truly lived till you had an old ass sistah offer to suck yer d*ick for a pack of Newports I tell ya
“It ain’t nothing,” Blair said before the Spurs played the Denver Nuggets at the Pepsi Center on Wednesday. “It’s something that’s been handled.
“It just came out because I’m me. It happened in my rookie season when I was young and dumb, just coming into the league. I grew up. It’s cool. It’s getting handled right now.
“I knew it was coming out before it came out. My attorneys got everything, so it’s not really a big issue for me.”

Man, the Spurs PR team must not want to help Blair. You would think he could come up with a better story. It is a big deal when you have a $53,000 judgment entered against you. Its even bigger if its a default judgment because you acknowledge owing the money by not contesting the case. If you can't afford to pay the $53,000 how in the do you expect to pay your lawyer who will probably charge you another $20,000 just to tell you that you owe the money? You are still young and dumb. The only thing more stupid than Blair's comments are those of his agent:
“It’s the underbelly of pro sports, where business people take advantage of guys just coming into the league,” Waters said. “They tell them, ‘Take this jewelry and pay me later.’
Poor millionaires getting taken advantage of by buying $50,000 in diamonds. They are the victims of predatory retailing.
A rapist & now a deadbeat.
tee, hee.
This. Terrible financial advisor also if he has one.
*sigh* If I had a fraction of what these fools make I would do so much more. He will be another Former NBA player hoping you feel sorry for him when he is broke. Pretty sad.
This is very true, I wonder if he is still driving around in that Grand Prix
man im a huge d blair fan but this is just pathetic. i always try to defend him and hope things work out for the best but i dunno anymore....smh
Wow. I think he broke the auto-tune machine. Is that even possible ?
Yes, DeJuan...we all recognize who the you are now. It aint pretty.
why hasn't...... playblair..... contributed anything...... to this thread....?
