who cares. hes rolling in it. The comments did come across as not sarcastic in the media. SO out of touch with average people in terms of monetary values.

Talk about instant Karma

So if he wins will it cover his fines?

I believe he gets around 16,000 for finishing in 3rd or 4th so he will be fine

Asked if he were excited about becoming the first Bull since Scottie Pippen in 1990 to participate in the event as part of All-Star weekend, Thomas barely looked up from untying his shoes.

"Not really," Thomas said. "I'm just going to go out there, get my check and call it a day."

Asked if an opportunity to rub elbows with some of the game's greats could be beneficial for a rookie, Thomas kept unlacing.

"I'm just into the free money," he said. "That's it. I'll just do whatever when I get out there."
