The Worst Contract In The World
El Floppino earns his cash.
ESPN.com is reporting that Anderson Varejao, the most irritating-to-watch player in the game, is about to be rewarded by Cleveland with a base contract of $42.5M over 6 years, with incentives likely to push it to $50M.
This is the worst signing ever done by a team. Bar none. This makes Rashard Lewis’ contract look like the bargain buy of the century. Hell, it makes Isiah look good. Here’s the facts:
- You have a remarkably unlikable guy on your books for six years, even if LeBron leaves, because no one else will want him.
- You’re paying a guy $50M when he has barely managed to average 8 and 7 in a season.
- His idea of playing defence is to fall as theatrically as possible.
- You’re paying Anderson fucking Varejao $50M.
I’m going outside to kick a cat.

My main issue is that, yeah, the guy might help your team. But fundamentally, he’s not good at basketball. He’s good at moving + falling.
