List is definetly not complete

Gilbert Arenas ,Lebron james,Melo etc are all over 100 mil.

Unless you are talking only about salary without endorsements, then you might be right

My dude C-Webb - 176mil
Michael Finley - 127mil
Jalen Rose - 101mil
Eddie Jones - 101 mill
Karl Malone - 106 mil

And just an interesting fact - MJ only 94 mill, but of course he played before salaries really blew up other than his last season.

There are some people who RAPED the system even worse. Less than 100m but still way more than deserved:

Keith Van Horn 89mil
Antoine Walker 108mil (and still the moron goes bankrupt)
Shawn Marion 92 mill (so far)
Antonio Mcdeyss 101 mill
Grant Hill 128 mill
David Robinson 118mil
Allan Houston 117 mil
Patrick Ewing 123mil
Elton Brand 95mil
Antawn Jamison 99mil
Ben Wallets 82 mil

Oh, and OP didn't include that those figures don't include this season, so Shaq is almost at 300mill for his career.
