Statistically he's one of the very best 3 and D guys! Best SG at defensive RPM, shoots >40% from 3 in two consecutive seasons. The thing with him is, this is the very first season he's shown anything close to this defense. Last year he was much worse...
In general, it will be a projection payment. If you project him to be this level of defender 12M won't be a bad contract. If you think this season is an aberration, it could be a gross overpayment.
Sure, I've seen a bit of Middleton actually. Bucks are one of the teams I have watched a good amount of games of. I was really wondering if if his $12 million a year would be worth it to the Jazz in particular. We still do have Hood and Burks.
