kareem was just trying to push the issue to the NBA office.. mao lageh na ang issue ang mga players musulod sa NBA thinking big money. when in fact they need to hone their skills first for them to play more than they're capable of because in the NBA you have to give extra effort more than what you can give to excel. wala lageh sweldo pero in the end you will gain experiences to get you further in the future as a professional basketball player. and naa pud fallback if in case they cant make it in the pros they are well educated to venture into another field to continue earning.
