So you want him now?
No player of D12's stature has EVER turned down a guaranteed 30 million dollars. This cannot be overstated enough.
There are absolutely no guarantees that Dwight will get a chance to sign another max contract. There are a myriad of things that could happen to a player that takes a beating nightly the way he does. You simply don't roll the dice on $30 million.
D12 stays in LA for this reason, and this reason only. Nobody in their right mind turns down $30 million.

Dazed is correct here. Not only does no one turn down 30M, no one ever turns down the chance to play in LA. , people usually take less than they could make to play in LA because it's a mighty franchise with tons of outside of basketball earnings potential.
Not only does no one turn down LA because of that, no one could turn down LA after having a franchise that is so might, court you the way they did Dwight. When you combine all of that with 30M, Dazed is correct. It would be the most historic slap in the face in all of sports history right on the coattails of the biggest disappointment in NBA history with this stacked LAL team barely making the playoffs only to be swept.
Obviously if he resigns he'd be tacitly agreeing to Kobe's stipulations.

I wouldn't pass the $30 million up. It'd pay the IRS for the $90 million.
The next time Dwight uses common sense and logic to make a decision will be the first, son...
This should make people appreciate CP3 a lot more, tbh.... there was minimal drama, no begging, and no back-and-forth bull .... he knew what he wanted and got his decision out of the way quickly..... he's an adult, while Dwight is a juiced-up manchild....
Duder, CPO is in the same ing line as Howie. He's a loser.
Clippers willing to sack their coach for CP3, Lakers werentThe next time Dwight uses common sense and logic to make a decision will be the first, son...

Clippers were willing to sack their coach anyway because he sucked
Not only that, he never even won a state championship in HS, an NCAA le, and never been out of the 2nd round of the NBA playoffs.
Lakers coach doesnt suck?Clippers were willing to sack their coach anyway because he sucked
It was a black thing.Clippers were willing to sack their coach anyway because he sucked
CP3 did those things in New Orleans when he forced his way out. Maybe mention someone to appreciate who has never been a begging drama queen ever in his career.
Paul may be a prima donna but he's decisive.
Does he wear silver and black and the number 21?
Good set up jab. Now we just wait on Howard to see if you can finish with the uppercut knock out.
Tbh, D-Rob did have to beg Timmy not to go to Orlando in 2000
America, eatin' my lunch from a single bowl in my parents basement, where I'm livin'. Happy Birthday, I'm forty-three.
Don't want to waste those precious calories...chewin'. Jesus come move my jaw for me, help me get my sloppy food down my throat.
Howard doesn't want any part of a Laker's organization that includes Bryant and/or D'Antoni. It will be the reason he will sign elsewhere. End of story.
Just shows how much Dwight hates Kirby. He's willing to pass on $30m to get away from that show in LA. :lmAO
If the Magic got him you could slot in scrubs at the 1 and 4/5 and still win 50 tbhTbh, D-Rob did have to beg Timmy not to go to Orlando in 2000
The clarity of Bryant's statement leaves no room for Howard to misconstrue it. He'll be the student, Kobe the teacher.
Agreed, but this is Bible Kemp we're talking about here. This is a guy who decided to opt-in for another year with Orlando because he got his fweewings huwt by all the mean things people said about him on twitter. I would think he would need that extra $30 million for all the child support payments he'll be making, but who knows...
If he's holed up in Colorado with anyone it's an army of accountants and agents who are crunching the numbers. $30 million. Can he make that up in endorsements as "The Man" with another franchise instead of sharing the spotlight in LA? What's the bottom line on cost of living and state taxes elsewhere? Can they pocket that in projected savings by picking a market with lower fertility rates?
