Kobe Bryant, Luke Walton, And Sent Thousands Of Dollars To Employees Laid Off Laker
Like pro athletes make millions of dollars began to work, the idea of "play-off bonus" seems almost quaint. Please reward the playoffs or even win one or two series, the number of tens of thousands, but when you possibly do in the first eight issues per year bonus is unlikely to feel a great deal.
Schmos for regular, except that the money go a long way. And the Los Angeles Lakers players, with Kobe Bryant (notes) and Luke Walton (notes) in the lead, the fact that the bonus race of last season disappointing playoff went into the hands of the Lakers, who needed it most. Namely, two video-ordinators, which was rejected by the Lakers when the lockout began.

The Los Angeles Times SCOOP:
Kobe Bryant has asked to give some bonus playoff team two members of the Lakers' Department of videos whose contracts were not renewed after the season. Bodaken Chris and Patrick O'Keefe distributed about $ 65 000 a Lakers' playoff bonuses.
Lakers started out as a ball boy Bodaken in 1986 and has spent the last 10 seasons of their head as video on demand. O'Keefe was the video coordinator of the Lakers' six seasons. Both hope to re-hired by the NBA team when the block ends. At the moment, I am grateful to the financial gesture Bryant.
"He always looks out for people who are lower on the totem pole," said O'Keefe.
The article goes on to say that Walton was given an undisclosed amount for staff training teams and the Lakers have laid off 20 employees since the season ended. Most could be rehired when the lock end of the NBA, but join 20 other victims of a crash that shows no sign of an end.
Lakers are not obliged to pay the employees of the team can work over the offseason. These are also under no obligation to pay employees during the spell, if the teams can not even talk or e-mail, or tweeting their players. Employees of the teams are almost afraid of eye contact with the players, not to mention help the little backup on the work of rehabilitation to the knee during the summer.

This goes far beyond a general manager to fame with a round of golf with him the highest paid player. Earlier this month we heard a ridiculous story, but it's true about a low-level employee had quietly Orlando Magic script for a convenience store after teammate Dwight Howard (notes) came in with Howard essentially gives the employee the team "really?" shrugged his shoulders, is the answer. It was not his fault, and not rude. It is only the letter of the law these days. It is really ridiculous.
With these rules in place, but we do not claim that the Lakers are a typical case. They had a massive pay last season, including former coach Phil Jackson, and yet it is only the second round. Yet, while defending Champs was massively profitable, and have recently signed a local television station, which would allow the team's potential dollars while driving. If the 2011-12 NBA season aside, the Lakers will always be guaranteed in national television money, without paying a dime for players of the team.
It 'a long way of saying that they could certainly afford to keep those 20 people, although they are not required.
Laker players, especially Bryant and Walton, clearly felt a certain obligation. Good for them.
