that AP he got Harden is damn nice.

but but but he's a cancer lol.

That's fcking crazy.

not sure if he bought all 15 guys a watch, but assuming he did..that's

14 watches at $10-$20k a piece, plus Harden's AP which is about $50,000. also, i'm sure he didn't leave the coaches out either.

James Harden also gave some gifts for his teammates

Good show by Dwight

he is making 20million a yaer bro. he got it like that. that's awesome that he did it for his team, this makes me like him a lot more.

I should try to get me a job as a waterboy so he can give me a rolex too...

dude probably got those from his trip to china

jeremy lin didnt get anything

I wonder what did Asik get :lol

Maybe he's sticking around till after x'mas so he could grab a gift before skipping town

he actually did give the ballboys gifts.

gotta buy their friendship doe:lol

When you're a millionaire, what can someone get you that you couldn't possibly get yourself?

Especially someone who spends outlandish like this and has 8+ kids to pay child support for?

Obviously if I'm only an average NBA player who wants to be secure for life, I probably am not buying myself $20K watches though :oldlol:

[QUOTE=inclinerator]jeremy lin didnt get anything[/QUOTE]
i don't think he has an instagram

Weak.

So he got Harden an Audemars Royal Oak...I was thinking VC. but got everyone a Rolex? It's best just to get everyone the same watch.

Why do you have to get one guy a more expensive watch than the other.

On a side note, I almost purchased an Overseas all stainless once. It's a fantastic watch. This was before the AP hype you see now. It was a chrono too.

I actually went with the Rolex Submariner due to it's durability when I was running my family's business. The RO would have been too much as it was a dressy sports watch. If anything happened to the watch it would have to go back to AP for service.

Since I will be working at a firm now, I may consider it again but I like other watches as well. I will go with a Daytona this time around.

The VC Overseas...very similar to the RO but I like it better.

Dreams pay when you're living in your mom's basement...

Thanks for the laugh though.

But did he get presents for his kids doe ?

Dude, im fking jealous.

Dwight used last year's pay with the Fakers to pay for this while playing at 50% for them. lol Stealing money and gifting it away to a team he wanted to play with.

I don't see a Rolex in that picture though. But looks like a nice basement :cheers:

let me guess the owner of the store gave these gifts for free using Howard so these Ballers can go their and buy some more jewelry from his store

He just wants Harden to pass him the ball more...so the bribe

At the end of the day, I'm happy for Dwight. He genuinely seems happy in Houston and at the end of the day, he did what was best for him.

I wonder what Dwight would gotten Royce White if he was still on the team.

I would venture out to say he enjoys the Rockets squad more than the Lakers squad.

I would say Dwight doesn't know much about watches. Seeing as they travel all the freaking time.

It was in the team's best interest to receive GMT/Travel Watch. With the many timezone adjustments, it would have been much more functional and appreciated.

he really does seem to be a genuinely nice guy. aaron brooks was saying how dwight knew that he was a huge sneaker addict from twitter, so dwight got him those super rare back to the future nikes. that shows he was actually thoughtful with his gifts.

my friend got to meet him in the rockets locker room after a game and she said he was very nice and accommodating.

Very cool! Nice watches :cheers:

I doubt any of them really use watches to tell time. Most probably just pull their cell phone out of their pocket when they want to check what time it is. It is a pure fashion statement.

I know right, he should have got them all sun dials. Much more useful... lol

:facepalm

Dude.

The engineering behind the watch and what it symbolizes is why people like me and Dwight are such watch enthusiasts.

Of course we love the appearance. But the behind the scenes and the technical side is the main reason. I freakin' love it .... passionate about it, etc. You're an outside looking in type guy. You can never fully understand it because you can't comprehend it/ understand what makes a person tick about a watch.

[QUOTE=Jailblazers7]I doubt any of them really use watches to tell time. Most probably just pull their cell phone out of their pocket when they want to check what time it is. It is a pure fashion statement.[/QUOTE]

Half true. While they are fashion statements, they are also a functional tool and better at telling time than a cell phone. Only kids use cell phones to look at the time. It's frowned upon in the business world.

While it takes time and you need a free hand to reach into your pocket, grab the phone and press a button to see what time it is and then put it back in your pocket.

I would have just glanced at my wrist and continued on to what I was doing.

If you guys are mover and shakers, you will understand how convenient it is to have a watch.

You do realize that a lot of NBA players are basically giant teenagers who play a child's game for a living right? I'm sure some players love having it on their wrist to tell time and enjoy the engineering behind it but a lot of guys buy it so they can have a $20k ornament on their wrist they will attract attention.

He does make millions of dollars and millions more from endorsements. Its still a nice gesture but lets not rattle off the price of things as if its a big deal for a millionaire. I would hope most of us would do the same thing for our friends/teammates/family/whatever if we were in the same position.

Having said that, its great that he did because he didn't have to. Its more about the message it sends to his team that he is happy to be there moreso than how much he spent or what he got them. Sending a card to each teammate would have had the same effect because all of his teammates are rich also, just not as rich as him...

I have worn watches in that price range and more. While I agree the Rolex may attract attention due to the brand and the style is worldly recognized.

Other brands out there are unnoticeable to the public unless you are a watch aficionado like I am.

At first glance, without looking at the brand on the dial, I can tell what kind of "complications" are on a watch.

Complications is a term used on watches to describe it's functions and how complicated it is made.
