The following are all big contracts (10mil+) that will be expiring in 09. Usually, large expiring contracts hold value for teams looking to reduce their payroll, but with so many large ones, what will happen with them?

Some of the contracts are player option, and I can't see any of the players not re-upping for next year since they could not come close to getting the same $$ on the open market except for perhaps Arenas and maybe Marion. Brand might have been able to if he was not injured,

So, who stays with their current team and expires where they are, and who is traded? And, who would be looking to trade for these players?

Mike Bibby - 15.8mil Atlanta
Wally Szczerbiak - 13mil Cleveland
Jason Kidd - 21.3mil - Dallas
Allen Iverson - 20.8mil - Denver (player option)
Rasheed Wallace - 13.9mil - Detroit
Baron Davis - 17.8mil - Golden St. (player option)
Elton Brand - 16.4mil - Clippers (player option)
Lamar Odom - 14.2mil - Lakers
Shawn Marion - 17.8mil - Miami (player option)
Stephon Marbury - 20.8mil - New York (player option)
Andre Miller - 10.3mil - Philly
Raef LaFrentz - 12.7mil - portland (player option)
Gilbert Arenas - 12.8mil - Washongton (player option)
