Re: Top 40 NBA salaries (28 overpaid)
I don't like Noah, but is he really overpaid ?
Also this list has no Raptors players and we are top 4 team in the east.

I don't think Blake Griffin is overpaid. He proved that he could be a franchise player in the time Chris Paul was out

Rose is not a HOF
Re: Top 40 NBA salaries (28 overpaid)
what's your definition of overpaid for this case? lack of production or for box office?

Nope.
I considered Parsons a little overrated last year - but he wasn't overpaid cos he earned under $1 million.

might be derailing this but half of the players u linked are fan favorites ie.
kobe and blake. they get paid big bucks cause they bring in the big bucks.

Re: Top 40 NBA salaries (28 overpaid)
well, it's not like you can sign players in bundle packages.
the opportunity to spread the amount of money you want to overpay per-player doesn't really exist.
reasons like these makes me suspect that someone like Gordon Hayward won't be with the Jazz on his next contract.
as for players being overpaid. even if you try to get to each players proper value, you really squeeze out about what, 3-5 mils per year? it CAN be the make or break of retaining one player, but then the soft cap rules had taken cared of that aspect already.
