No doubt tony is over paid. But give me a break on top ten. Hell there are 10 just this offseason that are worse

Spoiler: Someone on the Spurs is in it

[KDKSpurs24]

Don't really like the list, tbh..

[capek]

Wow, what a shitty "article" layout. Has Forbes always been a click bait whore site? Won't be click on their links anymore.

[DeRozan m8]

Man I hate these new age website where you've gotta click through each number to see a list.

Ain't nobody got time for that tbh

Mean ya websites shit too

Cheers

[HarlemHeat37]

Damn, that was a surprisingly accurate list, tbh..

[ElNono]

:lol when Forbes lists RC as the top sports exec or the Spurs as one of the top sport franchises: "OMG, Forbes, let me click on that link 3 more times, :cry beautiful layout :cry, I printed it out"

Now they're worse than Bleacher Report :lol

smh player fans...

:lol

In reality, if Duncan had actually entered the open market this summer, there is no doubt he would have been offered a four-year max contract worth close to $94 million, or $23.4 million per year.

Kobe rightfully #1 on the list tbh. Rose is very overpaid as well, list is not bad.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

That's an interesting article. I would find it hard to believe a team would have given a 39 year old a 4 year/$94M deal, but I suppose stranger things have happened.

He would get something along the line of what Kobe got: 2yr/48

I'm sorry, but that would be too much. Duncan isn't going to be worth anywhere near that especially at 43-44.

[skulls138]

That's awesome, I hope Parker reads it as well as all the disrespectful posts here. More fuel for the fire.

[spursistan]

^ i agree that 4 years would be ridiculous..But if he were in e LA/NY or even Miami, they could afford to give Timmy 2 years at $20-22m and nobody would raise an eyebrow in the league considering his current productivity and past achievements.

yeah. i still don't think he is worth that, but it is sorta reasonable.

8/10

Will retweet

[Raven]

the list is incredibly accurate, especially for such a trivial measure. And Timmy wouldn't get anything above a one year 10M contract.. frankly, i doubt any team would sign him for a contract above the minimum. Now if he'd be sign and traded, that would change a lot.

[Mikeanaro]

Good list, TPork sucks but Lin makes me puke.

[Mal]

It`s unfair list. 5 mil for Young isnt that big. Al Jefferson at 13.7 mil isnt overpaid. What about Asik ? Joe Johnson ? Deron Williams ? Rondo ? Rudy Gay ?

[testies]

i dont get your picture

[SASdynasty!]

As long as they would have been willing to put him on the most underpaid players' list when he finished #6 in MVP voting (twice), that's cool. Duncan would have been on this list in 2011 when he was making $19+ million and putting up like 13 PPG (which dropped in the playoffs).

[will_spurs]

Since he's been on the "top 10 underpaid" list every year in his career, I'd say that's fine (and then some).

There's a script for chrome that can deslide those sort of clickbait sites.

[Bruno]

Well deserved.

Parker had 2 good months this year (November and March) and was just bad for the rest of the season, which includes the most important part of the season, the playoffs. Most disappointing Spur of last year and the main reason why Spurs weren't even close of repeating.

[SupremeGuy]

TP is basically our version of kirby. Only dumbass player fans refuse to admit he's overpaid and was a detriment to our team last year.

[pgardn]

Uhhh...

Without TP there is no 5

he was really, really awful in the playoffs admitted...
But no 2014 title without him.

[TheDoctor]

LOL

Without Cory Joseph the Spurs won't get past OKC thus without CoJo there's no V. Back on topic, Forbes nailed that list tbh. Kobe at #1, Parker right in the middle and Dwight, DRose and Swaggy in the mix.

[hater]

:lmao getting your basketball takes from Forbes :lmao

Comical...

[DarrinS]

no surprises on that list

[DAF86]

The fuck were they thinking giving Tony that extension so early? There was no reason for that. With a more reasonable contract for him and the cap extension of the next season we might have got another star, tbh.

Without TP we were a first round exit in 2014. His G7 performance was huge. (32 pts on 19 shots).
