Jayson Williams, $12 million?! I knew he was overpaid, but sheesh!!! Is that a per year salary?!?! ------------------ WE WILL WATCH THEM FALL... Next year [This message has been edited by AntiSonic (edited August 21, 2000).]
Those are last years salaries Anti. Thats Jayson from the Nets not the Kings. He was a rebounding machine and he signed that contract well before he had the injury problems. ------------------ In order to be a success in life, you need 2 things: 1. Don't tell everything you know.

Conduct yourself in a FUN way! The Fun Police are Watching. Vote for the Rockets & Have FUN or be Assimilated.

The Blazers are over the cap, but Paul Allen doesn't even blink. He doesn't mind paying the luxury tax, as long as the Blazers win the championship. ------------------ In order to be a success in life, you need 2 things: 1. Don't tell everything you know.
Rocket River: It tends to be more, as there's the DL and waived players too. ------------------ The Serious Police are watching. Follow the rules or be assimilated. Shandon is underrated.
Way Overpaid: Patrick Ewing Juwan Howard Rik Smits Larry Johnson Rasheed Wallace Shawn Kemp Damon Stoudamire, ------------------
Oh crap, I'm gonna be sick... I just added up how much I would save over the next 30-freakin-years from Roth IRAs ($4K/year), 401k ($12K/year) and savings ($30K/year) assuming a 12% annual return on investment. Scottie Pippen made more last year. I wonder what my $500K life insurance policy says about suicide. ------------------ "There's 1,000 different things we're looking at, but there's not a lot of things there," he said.

Basing this on performance only... But if you think Ewing, Wallace, and Kemp are overpaid. Then you have to throw Hakeem out there to. ------------------ "I have amazing, powers of observation"...Pink
shake, If you take that line of thinking, he was way underpaid in his prime. ------------------ In order to be a success in life, you need 2 things: 1. Don't tell everything you know.
