I think he gets like $100 million per year for the next 5-6 seasons. So probably about half a billion?
Edit: Just clicked that link; I was way off. UNDERPAID

The Magic look to compete for the Eastern title over then next five years. Lewis is a key, and his salary is consistent with retaining other key players.
As quoted by Stan-the-Man, "everyone in the NBA is over-paid, including myself."

Dwight is worth $hards contract and $hard is worth about what Dwight is getting, so as long as those two are here in Orlando together, then I just look @ it as a non issue. We needed to do something to show Dwight we are committed to winning in the long run, so we overpaid for $hard, but we also locked up Dwight for an additional 5 years. If $hard and Dwight swapped contracts, this would be a non-issue right now, so I look @ it the same way.
Sure, im not happy we overpaid 4 him but there are legit reasons why we did. (1) He was the only big name guy that year, so he had all the leverage...... (2) Dwight and Meer were both coming up on contract years and we needed to show Dwight a commitment to building a contending team & winning.......

I w as soo hoping we were done with these type of threads....
Personally I hope this guy is trolling and can be somehow locked out of the magic board for the nonsense he could incite.

Well, it sounds like he truly did want to know how much Lewis was making...
On another note, thanks for that link Dome. I sometimes forget about Hoopshype's salary section.

Question is answered. Dont see any need to keep this thread open, especially now a couple of people that love to debate the subject have shown up.
