Popular misconception about Prospal. His best year production wise was 2005-2006, which was not a contract year. (He also had other non-contract years when his production was up, but I don't remember who went back & checked that info.)
It's a classic example of someone making an erroneous observation a few years ago and everyone taking it as gospel. Anyone who watches Prospal play can see it's not (solely) money that motivates him. That said, they *all* love their money, some are just more villified for it than others.
