While I see this at times also Hayward has a 2/1 assist to TO ratio. Most of those assists coming of him being a ball handler. He well never be PG good when it comes to handles he is just to tall and lanky. But from a wing position he is much better than average
Hayward getting extension???

As can I. Rep for supplying some level headedness around here.

Yup.
Maybe he's getting a Honda dealership? Easy access to those accords, new one every week.
A lot. Like A LOT. But since you didn't say anything specific I don't have anything to respond to.
In other words I rated 80+ deals and you largely agree with the other 90%. That's fine. Like I said, reasonable people could disagree.
Batum has like $33 million coming over the next three seasons. Based on his production and league average PER that's probably $9-10 million too high total in my estimation. But it's debatable.
DeRozan sucks. David Lee actually makes the Warriors worse when he's on the court. Randolph is debatable but I think he's being paid as if he's a perennial ALL-NBA contender when he's actually simply a borderline-allstar. Gallinari is a purported shooting specialist that shoots 42% from the field. Bosh gets judged as "fair" because he's a package deal with the best contract in the NBA and contributed to winning two championships. Miami got what they paid for. My opinion of Pekovich is probably higher than average.

More or less. I was responding to the discussion about his "handle"...who the **** cares how tight your handle is if you're 3'7'' and blind?In other words: Hayward's not a good scorer off the dribble because of everything observable about Gordon Hayward.

He's not showing signs of much improvement scoring off the bounce so far this preseason.
I think your scale is off- Lebron is worth 40 mil a year. But he can't be paid that much so it throws the whole thing out of whack.

I agree, Lindsay is always talking about team flexibility and giving the max to Hayward would take a lot of that away.

He's deceptively athletic.

Ok I just want to address DeRozan as others kind of matter of taste or preference( to me Bosh is not worth that money just because he is soft and does not do anything well to justify such a big contract, yes he helped to win those rings riding coattails of Wade and LBJ but replace him with any 10mil making PF and they win it too, and maybe even in shorter series.).
DeMar is top 10 in all NBA at getting to the line, excellent mid range shooter and post up player for SG and finisher at the rim. Not a good 3 point shooter but at least he is not chucking them. Decent passer and decent defender. For 10mil a year athletic SG with tons of upside I think it would be crazy to rate his deal as bad - it is very good deal and will look even better after couple years. 18.1pts, 3.9reb...not sure why he sucks in your opinion, I can easily see him averaging 20pts per game this season.
I'm not certain where you're getting that information. I actually show him as averaging the same number of Free throws per game as Pekovic.

If this is on a FTA/shot basis I'm not totally certain how valuable that metric is, but I suspect he's below some guys like Corey Maggette for whom that is essentially their primary NBA skill.
If it's on a pure FT made basis then I guess it's accurate, but raw counting numbers aren't particularly meaningful.
I think he's a volume scorer with poor shot selection and limited range. I saw that he was one of the players that took the most jumpshots in the league (he was in the top 20%) but was in the bottom quartile of the league on efficiency for those shots. That's not the profile of a guy I want making $10 million a year. I don't want Monta Ellis at those numbers either and he's posted 20+ppg before.

He used to play PG until he grew an ton over a year. That's one of the things I think is underrated about his game. In fact, I think he could play point forward a la Nemanja Bjelica.
