The top 10 list of NBA earners this year is dominated by the “regulars.” All in the NBA players in the list deserves the pay, except maybe one: Gilbert Arenas.
Gilbert Arenas is yet to display up to what we expect him to do. If he was paid for what he was capable of, the guy worth whatever Orlando Magic pay him. However, as of today, his contribution is lagging behind all the newest Magic players. Even Hedo Turkoglu contributes way much better than Agent Zero (now Agent One?)
