    Who do you guys think are the most overpaid players in the NBA? That is, players who earn more salaries than they are worth. I think most players in the NY Knicks are overpaid, especially Allan houston...

    Allan Houston used to be money from anywhere and everywhere back in the day, I think he deserved that money at one time in his career but now he isnt what he used to be but he can still produce, just not on that crowded roster of the Knicks.

    Tim Thomas, Keith Van Horn, Jerome James, Michael Olowakandi, and Austin Croshere are some overpaid players for their mediocre services.

    Brian Grant. Career average of 11 PPG and 7 RPG and he gets paid over 16 Million dollars. Unbelievable.

    What in the world are you talking about? Nate Robinson? He only gets paid something like 1.1 million.

    Joe Johnson! I cant believe this hasn't been mentioned yet. He had a great season last year, but that was because when you have Nash Marion and STAT coming down the court you tend to forget about JJ. Thats not going to happen in ATL.
