“Plenty of guys within the league have this type of contract to be clear,” mentioned Tim Bontemps.
“Not numerous guys. And I’ll let you know one thing. Rather a lot fewer are going to have it going ahead. I assume final yr when Harden was taking a paycut, they weren’t actually able to deal level negotiate.Â
