A report in RealGM got me wondering about whether the Toronto Raptors are saddled with overpriced players. Joakim Noah’s 3-year, $55+ million contract with the New York Knicks is the deal ranked as the NBA’s worst. I concur it’s a terrible deal, though I wonder if Carmelo Anthony’s monster contract, complete with no-trade clause, isn’t worse.
Anyway, there are no Raptors in the ten-worst listing. Both Memphis and the Los Angeles Lakers have two “representatives” (Mike Conley & Chandler Parsons, and Timofey Mozgov & Luol Deng, respectively), which doesn’t bode well for either team’s future.
