He said: "When it comes to players, you will find that they are often promised 'We will give you a management position, we will give you special treatment, we will make you an ambassador'. Many players will get such a promise, especially later in their careers. Or 'We will give you a chance to become a shareholder of the team'. This kind of commitment is too common. Jordan was promised something back then. So he went to the Wizards to play again. It was because someone gave him a promise before - but when he finally retired, those promises were not fulfilled at all. The Wizards' subsequent problems are here. So players often get promises about future benefits, which is so common. "
" But the problem is that this time is different. This is the current actual operation to avoid the salary cap, which completely changes the nature. There has always been no shortage of such underbox transactions and private agreements in the league, but they are rarely exposed and reported. This kind of thing is not the first time, nor will it be the last time. But the scale and possibility of being exposed this time are rare, and this time is absolutely unprecedented. "
