Lebron feels he's underpaid

[ILLUSIONIST^248]

Did you read the article before your naive criticism? Obviously not.



He seems fine with being underpaid, and his true market value is much higher. He was asked a question and he responded. It's not as if he's out there crying about what he's paid, nor instigating the conversation. He just understands that his value is much higher.

Well obviously guys like joe johnson and amare shouldn't be making more than him.

Than go play baseball .

Try hitting a 90 mile n hour curve ball with your o so sexy self

Lol lebron

Just chiming in to agree with the non-crazies - someone on twitter the other day referred to him as the most underpaid athlete in the world, and I didn't even blink. I'm pretty sure it's true.

he's massively underpaid.

but thats what happens in a league with a cap, where there is no free market. players are boxed into levels or categories. in a free market LBJ would command a lot more money.

[VinceCarter]

Stupid to say but it's the truth.

Well he chose to be underpaid so if he feels any sort of anger from this he needs to look himself in the mirror and be reminded how his decision made this possible.

It is sad to see who get paid more than him though.

• Kobe Bryant
  $27,849,000
• 2. Brandon Roy
  $21,459,805
• 3. Dirk Nowitzki
  $20,907,128
• 4. Gilbert Arenas
  $20,807,922
• 5. Amare Stoudemire
  $19,948,799
  6. Joe Johnson
  $19,752,645
• 7. Carmelo Anthony
  $19,450,000
• 8. Dwight Howard
  $19,261,200
• 9. Pau Gasol
  $19,000,000
• 10. Elton Brand
  $18,160,354
• 11. Chris Paul
  $17,779,457
• 12. Kevin Durant
  $17,548,838

Only 5 players here deserve the money they are getting (7 if you include past success when the contract was given)

The only contract on that list I take issue with is Elton Brand who basically had a contract year and has underwhelmed ever since. The other guys I feel were legit superstars at the time of making those deals and were the faces of their teams so it is what it is. I don't hold injuries against guys like Roy and Agent Zero.....

But Lebron came along after it was raining money. Stern caved in to small market owners who were crying "we can't win" and sold everybody on the farce of so called competitive balance.

He should of thought about that when he back stabbed Cleveland and decided to take a pay cut. No one forced him to take less money its all on him.

There's a difference between contracts earned and players not living up to their contracts...Durant, Paul, Howard and Anthony are the only ones I see on that list living up to it, Howard is injuried so I give him a little room, Kobe's still Kobe, but he shouldnt be making 27 mil, thats ridiculous

[Bravo95]

He's right.

[metswon69]

Considering he is the best player in the sport yeah he is certainly underpaid when isn't even in the top 12 of annual salary.

A lot of us when we see the word "underpaid" we compare it to our jobs and say **** him but that's not how professional sports work.

[iam brett favre]

How does he afford to feed his family at night? It's really a shame how underpaid professional athletes are. I'm going to start donating my paychecks to them. They clearly need more money.

[metswon69]

If you look at it in a vacuum of professional sports athlete he is underpaid.

If A-Rod is making 29 million dollars this year, then Lebron should be making more than 17.5 million.

[rocket]

He is underpaid. I don't know the context of the question, but if he said I am underpaid without anyone asking him about it than he is a douche.
