Gotta be Big Shot Robert Horry. Sure, he's skilled, and he hits the big shot (which is why all those championship teams wanted him), but Reggie Miller was skilled and hit the big shot, too, without the rings to show for it. Plus, Robert Horry almost got bounced out of Houston for lack of confidence in his shooting(!), and we'll never know how that would have effected his persona. He might've taken a Lidge-like nosedive after that. Lucky, lucky man.
Man, you couldn't be more right. That guy is stealing money. Adonal Foyle is overpaid. So is Erick Dampier.
Jerome James earning every penny with these per 48min averages http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/teams...8&season=2&sort=pts&order=true&avg=48&split=0
Glenn Big Dawg Robinson. Last player as a rookie to get a 100 million dollar contract. After Glenn, the league negotiated the salary caps for rookies.
I would have to say karl malone that guy played with arguably one of the best PG his entire career and despite all the dirty plays and physical play he involved himself never got injured until that final year with the lakers. i would pray nightly for something bad to happen to karl malone and yet throughout his entire season and his prime year he was injury free. that is amazing for any player to be able to do especially one with a long career. scott williams will always have a special place in my heart for doing what he did to karla. lately though? van horn that guy just made millions just by sitting at home. oh and for good all the players who were bought out of their contracts when going to crap teams just to be resigned by their original team. also the allan houston rule of a couple years ago that allowed players like finley to be paid their crazy contract but then sign with a team of their choice.
This year it's Keith Van Horn for sure. Wasn't Aaron Mckey also signed and traded the same way to the Memphis in the Gasol trade?
Will Perdue, Matt Maloney, this year's entire Knick team (paid millions for playing like ****), Steve Kerr, Gregg Popovich, the Laker organization (Kobe trade, Gasol trade, Jabbar trade)
Not always there are times when players get injured because of a bad collision or just bad luck, granted karla did keep himself in shape but a lot of players do that and still get injured. grant hill was always in good shape and then had that terrible ankle injury (and tried coming back to early always) i mean dirk shys away from contact and he recently had an ankle injury that kept him out 10 days or so. it amazed me a guy as physical as malone was who always would be injuring people never was injured himself until Scott Williams came along
