Derrick Rose has the worst contract in the nba right now.It's taking up 25-30% of the cap and he has missed 130+ games since signing it
and it escalates over the next 3 years

IMO, Eric Gordon had to stay in New Orleans to make the Chris Paul trade worth it, especially after the "basketball reasons" fiasco. Atleast we were able to get The Brow.
thats in the past we are talking now and its a horrible contract

OP is Jewish he should understand the value of a dollar. Don't hate on a minority getting his.

It's stupid to put kobe on this list for the simple fact his extension was offered for the expressed purpose of him staying these next two seasons and retiring a Laker...trading him was never an option, it's a deliberately "unmovable contract" ...A) that was pretty much the entire point...B) he has a no-trade clause 
....the lakers were concerned about sending off an iconic all-time great player...not some desperate nickle and diming to finally win a championship that's been escaping them

this nikka has pocketed like $33M off that deal alone and played like 10 games. he's set to miss the post season for the 3rd consecutive year. and I count 2012 as missing the playoffs since he only played one game.

"Hey guys, we want to keep Kobe a Laker, and he already has a no-trade clause so he can stay as long as he wants...but we better go 'head and make it a 'deliberately unmovable contract' anyway and give him this 48 mil lifetime achievement bonus just to be safe."It's stupid to put kobe on this list for the simple fact his extension was offered for the expressed purpose of him staying these next two seasons and retiring a Laker...trading him was never an option, it's a deliberately "unmovable contract" ...A) that was pretty much the entire point...B) he has a no-trade clause
Makes sense.
Amin is East African.
well he got a cac mentality so he's no better
great example why your the WOAT
"Let's not forgot we will gross more money exponentially by having him on the roster"
can't believe you'd show your face in here after that stunt you pulled
at least I wasn't pathetic enough to be bribing nikkas for votes
look at my rep compared to you
look at my dap to post ratio compared to you
your way worse a poster than I am
at least I got as many stans as haters
you just got haters

You're an idiot. Amin has a great basketball mind and he was the Assistant Director of Basketball Operations for the Phoenix Suns for 3 years.

Be one of the primary reasons your employer generates billions of dollars of revenue during your 20 years of service, and maybe you'd understand...the concept of the highest tier of NBA superstars being underpaid, is not a foreign concept...he spent the majority of his NBA career being underpaid...the contract was offered with the intention of rewarding a guy that's an all-time great and a franchise legend in the twilight of his career, not whether or not it could it have the flexibility to be moved down the line...in the context of the rest of the list and writer's definition of "toxic", his inclusion just doesn't really make sense
