Unearthed video: Bill Clinton praises the 2007 University of Michigan senior speaker, Abdul El-Sayed, on his commencement speech
"I don't want to embarrass your senior speaker. But I wish every person in the world who believes that we are fated to have a clash of civilizations and cannot reach across the religious divides could've heard you speak today. I just wish every person in the world could've heard you speak today."

He's right. In the 2024 NBA Finals, Jayson Tatum topped Jaylen Brown in box plus/minus, average game score, points, rebounds, assists and minutes.
Brown's defense was awesome, but him winning Finals MVP was an example of the narrative overwhelming the evidence.
"Jaylen Brown should not have won Finals MVP. That was ridiculous."

Obviously millions of dollars is enough. But back in the day before NIL we didnβt get paid until November and I didnβt get paid at Lehigh. I left school in April for Pre Draft. So I lived off $12k energy drink deal Until November. Which was cool with me. 2 bands a month. The point is that people with money need to budget and people without it need to budget too
People forget the point here. What heβs saying is how easy it is for folks to go broke because youβre living in the moment in the NBA. He wants to be smart with his money and have it work for him for the rest of his life for his family and yall mad at him explaining this.
CJ McCollum says a $2,000,000 NBA salary gets chopped down to under $1,000,000 after taxes and fees, so early on he lived off a $12,000 energy drink deal instead
βLetβs say I was making $2 million, after taxes, letβs call it $950K, $970K, Agency fees 4%, marketing 15%. Those checks were chopped downβ
βI was living off an energy drink deal, I had a $12,000 deal just to get some posts off, and I lived off of thatβ
