Jordan's two years on the Wizards were for minimum salary, too. According to basketball-reference, Pippen made $18M and $19M during those two years.
my recall is that the Bulls continued to pay MJ while he was playing baseball...they knew his contract was a bargain as it was signed just before the explosion in pay
Don't feel too sorry for Jordan people... He had those groundbreaking endorsements, etc. Yeah it is obvious to some but not all.

Considering how many years has passed since MJ retired... id say he earned a fair lot already since the value of money has decreased in the past decade... Same goes for Kareem, but you just have to multiply what i said by around 10

Kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it? If today's best superstars agreed to play for ~$6M year. Imagine the kind of teams you'd be able to put together. In a way, it's kind of messing with the system.
