I've heard a lot of explanations for Scottie taking that unusually long-term deal but none of them really make any sense. The "I needed to secure the money now" part is just illogical because if he'd taken the normal deal literally everyone else was taking at the time he'd still be making millions and that was millions in 80's dollars so...a lot.

If he got hit by a bus five minutes after signing that contract and had to retire he'd still be richer than he ever imagined. And he had additional income from endorsements by then, too. He locked himself into a pennies on the dollar deal to mitigate a non-existent risk. There's no scenario where that's the smart move, which is why no one else was taking those sorts of deals.

I feel like you meant John Malkovitch

This. It reminds me of the Jusse Smollet thing where they want to pin it on a certain demographic but are forgetting the fact that those people wouldn't even be there.

Like, I think the WNBA is a fucking joke. If you ask me, they should just fold the league if these spoiled bitches go one strike. I shit on it every time it comes up. But you know what I'm not going to do? Pay for a fucking ticket and a sex toy just to troll the players by throwing shit on the court. I don't give enough of a fuck to actually waste time or money or risk being arrested for this stupid shit. So who is? They want to blame the "chuds" and "incels" but those people aren't going anywhere near a WNBA game, especially not if they have to spend money on it. They no doubt have contempt for the players but in an apathetic, remote sort of way. This is either an inside job or some guy who's a demented superfan trying to convey his interest.

Since he wormed his way out of San Antonio the 2 seasons where he played the most games were his contract years. Weird how his health always perks up right as he's negotiating a new contract
