Marbs is definitely the most overpaid of the bunch... Shaq, Redd, Rashard & Bibby are pretty damn overpaid too for that matter.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

There was a time not too long ago the knicks were like 4-6 deep on this list.

The bastan-bastards have three guys in that list, but they are well worth it.

So do we offer Lebron a seven year 25 million a year contract?

lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Haha very funny dude. We can't offer anything close to $25 mil for another team's FA. Max contract offers start much lower. Somewhere around 16mil with 10% raises each year.

doesn't matter what anyone offers Lebron, CLE is gonna match... the only way he leaves CLE is if he just decides he wants to play someplace else... it won't be the money that'll decide things (at least, not the salary figure anyway).

Well, besides Marbury, can you name the rest of them and their salaries?

I think by 2010, NBA salary rules will have evolved to make player movement much easier. Or the NBA will be facing increasing problems.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!
