    82games came up with a Fair Salary rating for every player, based on production per minute and minutes played over the course of the season. WHo's earned their keep, and who hasn't?

    Funny, based on the ratings Juwan Howard should have paid the Rockets $430,000 for his services this year, and Ryan Bowen despite only playing 16% of the available minutes, cost us $1.3 million!

    Jacque Vaughn was worst in the league at -2.38 mil. in value to the team. i could have sworn half the knicks would have been worse.

    Just take a gander at Juwan's +/- numbers in player pairs. The only players he is positive with are no longer with the team!!!

    well that's just how valuable a player is (or isn't), not the difference b/t their value and their salary. now that's where the knicks would start running away with it.
