Nah, that's Bert Kolde, who Larry Miller went out of his way to grovel about on the radio yesterday. Take it up with Paul Allen? Talk to Paul about getting a new monitor.
Nate, I never realized you had Cho in your avatar til just now. That's Cho on Halloween, dressed as a sleek ninja turtle.
even before that.. I dont have numbers or anything.. but I doubt even MJ made that much his sophomore year no?
Didn't Kevin Garnett get a huge deal as a draft pick? I mean there's a reason they implemented the rookie wage scale, it was meant to save stupid owners from themselves and handing out huge sums of money to unproven players and the veteran players in the union demanded the change.
KG 1,666,000 2nd year. He didnt start getting 14,000,000 until his 4th year. http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/g/garneke01.html
Interesting. Yeah, maybe Wesley is the highest paid sophomore ever ... talk about a weird, random trivia question.
Most sophmores are still on there rookie contract since they have more years than 1 year with the team they go to. Undrafted rookies don't usually have an impact.
haha! I wish.. but she said the market value for those things is way to high to just be giving them to me
Is he? I remember before the rookie scale some idiotic 1st pick (it was Glenn Robinson, I remember now) was talking about a 1st contract of $100 million. He ended up getting $68 mil. Needless to say the owners (and probably the vets, too) had enough of that. I don't remember how many years that was for, but it's possible it was more. edit: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1355/is_n3_v87/ai_15969360/ it was a 10-year, $68 Mil contract, so the 2nd year salary was definitely less than $9 mil. - never mind!
He made 3.7 Million his second year according to BBR. Anyways, I don't think anyone can top Matthews's 9+ Million.
