The Answer Man Cuts In
Q. bonn - do you think Lee is working with Nash just because he somehow sees it as a way of getting a bigger payday from NY?
A. Lee is working out with Nash because Frank Isola has him convinced he is about to be traded
which also doesnt make sense....yea he's going to get help from a guy that knows D'Antoni's system because he is about to be traded away from D'Antoni's system...yea, that makes sense.
Yo, he's joking around man.
To add...
The point I think is do any of us know exactly what is the reason he's doing this?
I think it is of little question that potential money is a motivation, but this is the case for every single player in the NBA, and oh, say, the entire workforce of pretty much the world.
Certainly there is a record of players in sports chilling out after getting a payday, but this is not what every player does, and of course this is not exactly immune from other jobs that involve either guaranteed money, or a very hard time losing your job. Like say politicians, who often say all of the right things when trying to get elected, but then can totally change direction after the fact because of how hard it can be to hold them accountable if they don't actually think you're needs as a voter are a priority.
There are other factors that are behind people's motivation which money can help satisfy, yet there are other ways of satisfying desires such as: respect, ego, etc.
Point is, how exactly is it a bad thing that Lee is working out with Nash?
