Kris Humphries: Haters Gunna Hate

Alright after I heard that the New Jersey NEts resigned former Mr. Kim Kardashian Kris Humphries I almost shit myself. Then when I heard that it was for 8 million for next year I did shit. Then when I heard he beat out Lebron in a survey as the most disliked NBA player, I knew something was up.

from the LA Times:
Kris Humphries has no problem with staying power in one of his relationships — that with his NBA team, the New Jersey Nets.


Now that the labor lockout has been resolved, the basketball team has asked Humphries back for another year.

Terms of the deal say Kris will once again sport his jersey to the tune of $8 million, according to Yahoo Sports, and should be with the team for Wednesday's exhibition game against the New York Knicks. Kim Kardashian's husband of 72 days passed his team physical on Tuesday.

The report notes that Humphries had the year of his career in 2010, becoming "one of the best per-minute rebounders in the league."

Laughing all the way to the bank

From Entertainment Weekly:
This wasn’t an isolated incident. According to a new Forbes.com fan poll, Humphries has surpassed LeBron James as the most-disliked player in the league, a somewhat surprising showing for a non-superstar like Humphries. Last year, the 6’9″ forward averaged 10.0 points and 10.5 rebounds per game for the Nets. (Last night, he only played six minutes.) Solid, but not exactly numbers that would draw attention or notoriety to his play. 

Clearly, the vitriol is directly linked to his involvement with soon-to-be ex-wife Kim Kardashian. But what is he most guilty of in the eyes of fans: Marrying Kim? Failing to stay married? (As if.) Simply portraying himself in their reality circus? Perhaps the latter, since fellow Kardashian prop Lamar Odom came in 10th on the Forbes.com hate list?

So this poll is a bunch of sheyit. The ones that really matter are the most disliked players when they poll players. Every league does it. And I guarantee Humprhies is not the most hated by other NBA players. So that shit is stupid.

Now here is something this shit has me pissed off about. Averaging 10 points and 10 boards per game and making 8 million for next year? This is the shit that makes me hate the NBA owners.

You can't bitch about how you are losing money because of paying players huge salaries and be pissed enough to cause a lockout and THEN turn around and throw this kind of money at a scrub. Lets call it what it is. NBA fans hadn't even heard of Kris Humphries until he married Kim Kardashian. Dude is a total non-factor. So why the fuck are the NETS paying him? 


NBA owners aren't stuggling because of the huge superstar salaries like Lebron and Chris Paul and Kobe. They are struggling because at the lowest level, the bench players who suck, players are making a ridiculous amount of money.

I can't hate on Kris Humphries for his contract, if you can get 8 mil you fucking go get 8 mil. But he is now the poster child for whats wrong with the NBA. And here's some advice Kris, save some of that money, I have a feeling that once this divorce blows over and no one cares about you again, you'll need some funds.
