Every basket scored in the NBA the player makes 37,940 dollars per shot made. To make a layup you've just made 37,940 dollars for one of the easiest shots in basketball! Shooting 35% from 3 gives you a 500,00 dollar bonus. That should cut down to 100,000 or 150,000. Making a 3 pointer doesn't give you that big of a bonus from 37,940. It should jump to 45,000 or 40,000 at least because that can be a really hard shot a lot of the times and people like Steph Curry, Warriors, Point Guard and Eric Gordon, Rockets, Shooting Guard don't make more money than people that shoot layups for a living. Thats unfair in my opinion. …show more content…
You could hit a terrible hit or single and make 253,968. A home run should be a giant bonus like bigger than now and they should lower the hit pay. You could bunt the ball 3 times and still earn 761,904 dollars. That's INSANE!!! That is way to much money for anyone should make. Some of the smartest people in the world don't make as much as these athletes. That's way overpaid!!
Every passing touchdown in the NFL the quarterback makes 470,000 dollars. Let's say Drew Brees throws 3 touchdowns he's just made 1,470,000!! Drew Brees threw 43 passing touchdowns and makes 20 million. That's more than most people make in a lifetime. Even one passing touchdowns in the NFL is more than the average worker makes in 7 years. Somebody works there butt off for 7 years straight and just earn what one quarterback makes in one touchdown.
Overall athletes are way overpaid and they don't deserve the money they get it honestly makes me mad that someone works 7 years at a job they hate and make as much money when a quarterback throws one
