di kya dahil na rin sa money offer kaya di siya umalis sa bulls?
i dont think he was offered big money during that time. if i remember correctly, even mj thought he wasnt that good. he wanted to settle for long term contract. security habol nya nun. actually he was one of the underpaid superstars during that time. mas maliit pa ata sahod nya kay john paxson. when larry johnson came. lahat nagulat sa multi million dollar contract na nakuha ni grandmama. but did u ever hear mj complaining or asking to be traded? wala. binawi nya lahat sa endorsements. it was only during the latter years of his championship season when nabawi nya ang sweldo nya sa bulls. that was when he opted to sign a yearly contract. i think he got around 30-40m per year. thats the reason why mj was much appreciated. he was a true gentleman ( honoring contracts) and only asked for what his value was worth AFTER he has won a championship.
