Chart: Highest paid players for the Nets

So what does a $101 million payroll and nearly another $90 million in luxury-tax penalties buy for the Brooklyn Nets? Answer: Some very high-paid players, of course. The Wolves' highest-paid player — Kevin Love — would only be tied with Brook Lopez for fourth on the Nets:

Joe Johnson$21.5 million

Deron Williams$18.5 million

Paul Pierce $15.3 million

Brook Lopez$14.7 million

Kevin Garnett$11.5 million
