Not even just that. He did not back down from the MVP at all on the defensive end.
Dante Exum re-signed

Payton shot 32% on 3 pt last year, Exum 27%... not sure where you see that hope.

Payton is older and has played a lot more than Dante. You bring up he's in his 4th year, but he's only really played 2. Also he had a shoulder injury, Kind of important to shooting might take time to get over that. Despite that his career 3pt % is better than Payton. Let that sink it HIS CAREER 3PT % IS BETTER THAN PAYTON. For somebody who bags on Dante's shooting that should send up a lot of red flags.
Despite the more experience for Payton, Dante has taken more 3pt attempts and still shot a better %.

So if during last season Payton shot 3 pointers at 5% better, that can only mean one thing - Payton improved his 3 pt shooting which was really bad first couple years in the league while Dante's shooting got worse from where it was before..... BTW Paytons shooting this year took a huge dive after he was traded to Suns... in Orlando before the trade he was shooting 3's at 37%...yet he finished season in Suns shooting at 20% in his last 19 games.... Not sure if there was any injuries but I suspect learning new teams offense and picking right spots for shots has something to do with it.
In any way you look at it Payton at 2.7mil is better value than Exum at 11 mil. Sorry but that is just simple math.

We’re the 26th smallest market and the 30th in terms of free agent perception. Yes, we need players for a bargain to stand any chance against the GSW of the world who are signing all stars for $5M deals.

Not based on stats. It is not even close.
Even TS % Payton has better by .003.
Advanced stats.
1 Dante Exum 2015 2018 162 3280 7.5 .496 .498 .157 2.2 7.9 5.1 16.6 1.1 0.7 19.1 16.1 -0.9 2.6 1.7 .025 -2.2 -0.9 -3.1 -0.9
2 Elfrid Payton 2015 2018 300 8854 15.3 .499 .123 .260 4.1 11.9 7.9 33.9 2.3 0.9 17.8 20.4 4.3
If you look at per 36 minutes it becomes sad. Payton is better at every major stat but turnovers. Way better rebounder, passer, scorer, more steals and blocks.

No, we aren't competing with Golden State by getting cheaper worse players that are a better value. Exum gives us a better chance at beating them.
Disagree. Exum put up better offensive and defensive ratings, more points per 100, better per, better ts%, and plenty of others. Then there are the more advanced stats but I don't want to dig through the tracking stats again but Exum did well in those. There are some stats Peyton has that are better but overall I like Exums. Plus he has a higher upside and is younger.

LOL, so when comparing this year 3 pt shooting I am told to look at career stats lol... when comparing their career advanced stats I am told to look at this season ( 14 games ) stats. Can we stop cherry picking to make Exum look better than he is? Andrea Bargnani once had 14 game stretch where his stats were better than Lebron... where is he now?
