USATODAY.com - Some in NBA can't buy a win

Only four of 10 highest-paid teams have winning records: Minnesota, Los Angeles Lakers, Dallas and Sacramento. USA TODAY research found that Garnett will make $22.4 million, 1 million more than Shaquille O'Neal. The Knicks will dole out slightly more than $85 million — $19 million for players no longer with the team. The NBA is three seasons into its collective bargaining agreement.
