Biggest Waste of Money

[Xylus]

Who is the biggest waste of money on your team? What player is making several millions more than they should be making, preventing your front office from signing more suitable players?


For the Suns, it's gotta be Boris Diaw, who is currently making $9,000,000 and will be making that for a couple more years. This guy has the potential to be one of our best players. He has all the tools: court awareness, passing, post moves, decent defense, a strong frame. But he doesn't utilize his talents to the best of his abilities, doesn't appear to have a very high self-esteem despite the fact that D'Antoni has put a lot of faith in him, and underachieves on a nightly basis. He's only averaging 8.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in 28.5 mpg. Damn you, Doris.

The irony is that Kwame Brown still fits this bill on the 2nd to last Grizzlies.

IMO, Robert Horry for the Spurs.

after 05, he deserves it.

for me, that (the contract) was his reward for that.

[DazedAndConfused]

Chris Childs is correct - the entire damn Knicks team (outside of David Lee)

As soon as I saw the title of the thread I knew you would say this Mono. However by this point I think you also know that most Mavs fans would not agree with you on this. We already had this talk once, but big man will always be overpaid compared to the other positions.

LeBron James - Everyone banks on you for ratings, and what do you do? You get swept in the Finals and draw no television ratings in the Finals.

Dwight Howard - Swept in the first round.

McGrady - Can't get your team out of the first round.

Yao - Can't get your team out of the first round.

These are all wastes.

Most coaches get fired after these types of performances by their teams. And these are the guys getting their coaches fired for playing like ass.

Tim Duncan - Can't get your team back to back titles.

America, eatin' my lunch from a single bowl in my parents basement, where I'm livin'. Happy Birthday, I'm forty-three.

Don't want to waste those precious calories...chewin'. Jesus come move my jaw for me, help me get my sloppy food down my throat.

Diaw was awesome in 05-06 but as soon as Amare came back he sucked.
