    thread over.

    If you want the ultimate, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price. It's not tragic to die doing what you love.

    It's amazing that Ewing made more than MJ in salary for his career when they played pretty much the same time. Hell even Penny made more than MJ.

    - Michael Jordan

    Thanks MJ-Bulls for the picture.

    Joe Johnson will end up getting triple what Jordan made by the time his career is over.

    KG caused the 99' lockout with that humoungous deal Taylor gave him as a kid.

    Wow, great compilation of salaries.

    Based on the relative positions of players on this list (many many players that are obviously better didn't get paid proportionally), these stick out:

    Overpaid:
    Joe Johnson
    Rashard Lewis
    Elton Brand
    Brian Grant
    Juwan Howard
    Stephon Marbury
    Jalen Rose
    Larry Hughes

    didn't include players who COULD have lived up to their contracts barring injury (Redd, Ming, Hill)

    yes I probably missed a lot of players but those names stuck out for me


    (Relatively) Underpaid:
    Michael Jordan
    Shawn Kemp
    Hakeem Olajuwon
    any Hall of Famers not on the list (Stockton)
    I survived Stephon Marbury's inability
    Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin, Richard Jefferson era
    I survived 12-70
    Mikhail Prokhorov buys the Nets
    I survived not getting the #1 pick
    I survived Melodrama
    Deron Williams traded here
    I survived 248 games missed due to injury, 5 d-league call-ups, 14 different lineups in ONE season
    I survived Johan Petro and Travis Outlaw
    I survived Dwightmare
    Deron/Joe/Wallace/Hump/Lopez

    Jersey Strong, Brooklyn Ready.
