Kid better be smart with his money from now on.

I was fairly certain that Blair would not be in a Spurs uniform next year. I wonder if his legal troubles will make it official. Personally, I cannot pity a millionaire who can't afford to pay his debts so he simply chooses to ignore them.
Kid better be smart with his money from now on.
Why does he need a loan for 30k? I bet he is one of them fool's who wasted all his cash on things like his wack ass singing.
looks like a sign that he'll be one of the many NBA players broke or bankrupt a few years into playing retirement.
Arrest him and play Baynes...
lol in all seriousness, Blair might get the start tonight if he's available with Boris out. Crazy to see how smart some NBA players can be with their money and how others just aren't.
Tim and Tiago made the trip.
Also remember something similar with the Hornets' Lance Thomas a few months back.
Ah yea Lance was almost 70k lol...
But I meant Blair might get the start because if he doesn't Pop will have to bring Bonner/Blair off the bench, since Boris is out.
Diamonds,what a waste to blow that $$$ on something thats only worth anything because they tightly control the output
Crap sold to insecure suckers who "need" to impress a lady
Shoot you got yer game tight you dont need no diamonds to hook-up
Any fool tell you that, any piece thats into that kinda glam aint worth having around tbh
Lifes too short for those kinda headgames
Jesus, blair. This is some idiotic stuff if true. Buying 50 grand worth of jewelry on credit, then using the jewelry as collateral for a loan.
Some waste their money on jewelry, others waste their money on legos. Its sad, really.
"$30,000 loan the Spurs organization gave him"
wtf didn't know that was possible
i remember he crashed his camaro...sounds like $30k right there i reckon
I just goes to show that just because you make a lot of money doesn't mean you know how to manage it.
This... bunch of kids being handed huge ass checks = disaster
Would that loan count against the salary cap? Or is it just a prepayment of his salary?
Like most players, he probably didn't understand that when you earn your money in that short of a time span, it gets taxed to . After the states and cities and agents get their cut, he'd be lucky to see 50% of the stated salary. At 3.7 million, that's barely enough to buy an upper class home, let alone cars and jewelry and whatever other junk he enjoys.
Like Rodman and Pippen and many other players, he'll have to rely on the league pension system and depressing product endorsements.
Wattaburger?
He will look fantastic in court. If he caught the plane to Denver, he'll probably be in contempt of court.
"...for all my friends!"
I'm going to miss watching him in a Spurs uniform.
true dat!
And don't forget family and his boys probably saw a cut of salary too. I bet he paid for everybody when they went all out to eat or to the ty clubs. I bet you that Manu don't treat his homeboys from Argentina to kill,booze, and pussy when they come to SA. But that's why he has money!
the Spurs give him a loan of 30,000 and his instagram/twitter is still littered with complaints about being on the team
I bet he spent it all on that big booty girl he was dating
Blair seems stupid enough to do something like this. Not surprised tbh.
Dude doesnt even make that much money though, hes still on that second round rookie contract IIRC. blow all that soon if he hasnt already.
If the facts really are (and all we have is a news report, so who knows):
-- Blair borrowed tens of thousands of dollars worth of jewelry with a promise to either return it or pay for it
-- Blair used that jewelry to secure a $30K loan from the Spurs
-- Blair and his agent are refusing to respond to multiple calls and letters from the jewelry store and their attorney
-- Blair and his people have ignored a process server with a lawsuit, and ignored a court date for a hearing
then, I conclude, Blair is about to be dumped big time by the Spurs. They may release him outright just to get him out of here.
You can't f around like that, involve the Spurs organization financially, and expect to be kept around. The Spurs don't work like that. You have to be a grownup and take care of your .
I heard from a friend that Blair's credit got denied when trying to buy a Porsche recently. I guess this jewel thing falls in line with that.
