New York Knicks

If I asked you what the worst contract in the NBA was and you said anything else other than Joakim Noah, you would be wrong. He will make over $17-million next season and will still have another two years after that.

To make things worse – or better, depending on how far you feel his on-court performance has dropped – he is currently serving a suspension. Basically, nobody has any idea what the Knicks are doing, but I can assure you it doesn’t involve Joakim Noah.

Toronto Raptors

Whilst he is a decent player, Jonas Valanciunas has proven to be an Achilles heel for the Raptors in the post-season. With Serge Ibaka a better option at center, the Raptors should look to rid themselves of the offensively talented Valanciunas.
