The NBA: Where Apalling Max Contracts Happen Way Too Often

I was afraid to click on this link—really, it’s already Monday. None of us needs any more disillusionment. But hey, how depressing can a silly list be? What’s the worst that could happen?

The Top Ten Highest NBA Salaries:
10. Michael Redd—$17,040,000
9. Rashard Lewis—$18,876,000
8. Ray Allen—$19,766,860
7. Paul Pierce—$19,795,712
6. Dirk Nowitzki—$19,795,714
5. Shaquille O’Neal—$20,000,000
4. Tim Duncan—$22,183,218
3. Jermaine O’Neal—$22,995,000
2. Kobe Bryant—$23,034,375
1. Tracy McGrady—$23,329,561

Jermaine O’Neal … Tracy McGrady … Shaquille O’Neal … Michael Redd … Basically, if you have a famous name and average 10 ppg, in the NBA, you make $20 million. Life is unfair?

Or maybe NBA GMs are just really dumb.
