As various NBA off-season transactions continued this week, Brooklyn Nets power forward Kris Humphries re-signed with the team—opting for a two-year, $24 million contract. Humphries jumped from the tabloid circuit to an Internet, Hip Hop meme earlier this summer when Kanye West referenced him on “Cold” (formerly named “Thera-Flu”) Taking a thinly veiled shot at the man once married to Kim Kardashian for 72 days, West rapped the following:
“And I admit I had fell in love with Kim / The same time she had fell in love with him / Well that’s cool baby girl do your thang / Lucky I ain’t have Jay drop him from the team…”
The Nets are not a publicly traded company, so they are not required to disclose what percentage of the team Jay-Z owns. But various reports indicate his share stands at about 1.47%. Apparently that wouldn’t be enough to get Humphries “dropped from the team.” On Tuesday, Humphries signed a two-year, $24 million contract with the Brooklyn Nets. And Humphries made a playful reference to West’s line about Jay-Z via Twitter shortly after signing his new deal.
I hope he gets his ankles broke opening day.
is this hiphop news?????
Kris is so right. Fuck Kanye and fuck his hohoho…
i hope someone knocks west’s teeth out
kanye seems like the kind of guy that doesnt like girls
someone’s insecure
Is this another Taylor Swift groupie on a rap site? How does he seem like he don’t like girls cause he interrupted a white girls speech? he was ignorant but we all was thinking exactly what he was just he said it out loud
At least Kris took the high road and took the line with a sense of humor. I respect that.
thats how you interpreted cris’ lol?

Kris Humphries is a mediocre basketball player at best. That being said, he could kick the shit out of Kanye’s short ass.

“Apparently that wouldnt be enough to get Humphries dropped from the team”
The only person who can outright fire or cut a guy is the owner. Kanye was just trying to be funny, but I’m sure he’ll soon learn what being with Kim Kardasian is really like.
“Kris Humphries is a mediocre basketball player at best”
13.8 points & 11.0 rebounds a game is far from mediocre.
He still clowning Kanye and Kim cause both of them got to hustle while he just made a cool 24 million for two years…Are you freaking kidding me! together Kanye and Kim can’t amass that kind of dough. the dumb bitch left him him his monies were mis-managed and she thought he was going broke, now her ass might run back. Kanye ned to get up out of them tight ass pants- he got clowned cause dude got resigned for 3 times what he should have received. Thats karma cause he was living right in God;s eyes…
according to forbes..kim made 18mil between may 2011 and 2012..ye made 35 mil..sooo..yeah
those numbers r gd.. how many ppl avg a double double
I’d pay to see Humphries stuff Kanye in a duffel bag.
“together Kanye and Kim can’t amass that kind of dough”
Nice try. West is worth $80 million. Kim’s deceased father was worth billions.
“I’d pay to see Humphries stuff Kanye in a duffel bag”
He couldn’t even subdue Rob Kardasian. Besides, Kanye would just pay Pusha T to key Humpries car.
ha! touche. I meant gym bag anyway.
Oh Oh Oh in ya face Kimye, in YA FACE!
24 Mill on the cool… Kanye whole net worth is only 70 mill. and thats 24 mill before endoursements. well played Kris well played.
SLAM DUNK THAT LITTLE NICCA KIMYE.
Tweet should have read ” I now make more money per Game PLAYING for the Nets that a supposed owner who owns a mere 1.47%.
That was funny
well played
