OT - Dynamic Duo's: Did they get it right?

[magnifier661]

Miami: LBJ (19 mil) - Wade (18.7 mil): I say yes

OKC: Durrant (18.7 mil) - Westbrook (14.7 mil): I actually thought Westbrook earned more. I say yes

Lakers: Kobe (30 mil) - Gasol (19.3 mil): Ouch and double ouch. I say no!

Indiana: Hibbert (14.2 mil) - PG (19 mil): I see this way backwards!

Memphis: Zach (17.8 Mil) - Gasol (14.8): I think that should be flipped

Chicago: Rose (17.6 mil) - Boozer (15.3 mil): Boozer should be a 11 mil player. Christ he is overpriced!

What about Dwight (20.5 mil) and Harden (13.7 Mil)?

I think it's flipped too. Harden is way more valuable. They had to pay to pry Howard though, so I give them a pass.

They went to three straight finals and won two of them. They suck as a duo going forward but to date they have accomplished just as much as LBJ and Wade.

Noah is Chicago's second best player. Boozer might be their 6th.

agree, for the length of those two Laker contracts they got their money's worth and they both do expire after next season, the really stupid contract was Nash

how bout Amare and Melo? 22.4 mil and 21.6 = epic fail

 

[Blazinaway]

add epic fail NJ Nets so far with Joe Johnson (21.4) and DWill (18.6) and Lopex (15 mil), and this yr Garnett and Pierce at close to 30 mil - could be massive epic fail if they don't win

Their owner is filthy rich so he don't care... I wouldn't call it a fail as they are all in no matter what.

maybe it's semantics but for me "epic fail" are those that spend crazy money and don't win or even get to the finals, does not matter whether the owner is loaded or not

I'd say fail is missing the playoffs or losing in the first round. Only two teams make the finals so thats pretty damn tough regardless of payroll, talent, or superstars.

I am showing the highest and second highest players.

But is their contract worth it? We won't look at history, but what are they worth now. Maybe I should have been more specific

You are forgiven. Next time, just be more careful before you post.
