    No, OKC gave him a multi year extension but put more of the salary in this years cap space so it'll only be 3 mil a year in future seasons.

    Rashard Lewis played for 2 teams last season, so he's listed at #18 and #26. They pro-rated his salary into the 2 portions of the season.

    And I saw and was surprised by Collison, too.

    So how is Oden not on that list? Did you have to play in at least 1 game?

    I found it interesting that by this metric at least, Aldridge is slightly underpaid. I remember a lot of people unhappy with the size of his contract, although no doubt he stepped up some this year, so I haven't heard much about it lately.

    Well, duh, yeah. If we got 2008 LaMarshmellow he would've been overpaid, but he improved a lot last season.

    Berri gets a lot of criticism from other stat people, for his "Wins Produced".

    It is a bad individual stat, a better team stat.

    Yeah the PER based stat of wins added for the season over replacement player would be better. I forget what its called, but its probably just something like PER*season minutes
