    More on Chris Palmer.

    Here’s some of his tweets…

    “Larry Bird is the most overrated shooter of all time”

    “Melo might be the best pure scorer in the game’s history. It’s just crazy”

    “Kobe Bryant will win the 2013-14 scoring title, finish 2nd in MVP voting and make his 16th All-Star Game.

    “Lakers have quietly had a really good off-season: Chris Kaman, Nick Young, Wesley Johnson.

    He's a huge laker homer. Hate when ESPN writers clearly show their bias in their work. Amin is next to Palmer, though I do like Amin sans when he talks about the Rockets

    You forgot that his last contract in effect also gave him a one-time $6+ million bump on the final year of his prior contract.

    See the link Bima provided that has all the details. As it notes, the truth is his last contract gave him $17+ million more for the next 4 years.

    And, despite the guaranteed nature of the contract, money today is still worth more than money tomorrow, so it's not meaningless... especially when you consider the amount paid upfront...

    Collison was NOT underpaid previously.

    I love seeing people put the media in their place.
