The NBA seriously needs to do something about these contracts and the stupidity of these GMs that give them out. Only a handful of those guys really deserve the kind of money that they're getting.

And people (by that I mean what must be very close relatives of his) get mad angry at me whenever I mention how he's the biggest waste of contract money in the NBA.

It's really not his fault though. Orlando offered him the money and of course he took it. It's the stupid idiot Magic's fault for giving a player that has showed the best he can do is 22 points and 7 rebounds without any other extraordinary stats a max contract. He was 27-28 at the time of the signing. Did they think that he would magically transform?

History wise I gotta go with Juwan Howard.

At least Rashard's been to the finals.

But this is why I don't understand why there will probably be a lockout after this upcoming season b/c the owners want the players to take less money and years with the new CBA. I mean don't they have to approve these ridiculous deals? They players aren't offering themselves these deals. Can't blame the players for their owners' and/or general managers' stupidity.
