Just to make us all feel a little bit better

Our GM receives the second lowest salary in the league at $700,000

But our organization is not cheap right? We value talent and skill first and for-most right? Oh wait.

"Speaking of salaries, the lowest-paid in the NBA is Denver's Mark Warkentien, who really is more of a scout than an executive, with coach George Karl and executives Brent Bearup and Rex Chapman also having input with owner Stan Kroenke. Warkentien, who remains on Donnie Walsh's radar for the Knicks' GM post, pockets only around $500,000 per season, according to league sources. Other first-time GMs who come in under the $1 million-per-year figure are Seattle's Sam Presti ($800,000) and Charlotte's Rod Higgins ($700,000)."

When you have a guy like MJ at the helm, the GM is more of a figure head any way rather than a mover and shaker and would be paid accordingly.

It's not like he has the authority to make any decisions.

I know....but sometimes it's nice to get mad at everyone in the front office.

Agreeded im sure his main job will be scouting. MJ will be making all the decisions.
