What's new

It's happening bros...

Middleton is a starter on one of the best defensive teams in the league that doesn't have great defensive big men. The dude can play defense.

Middleton only started starting once a rookie tore his ACL.
 
Funny how Middleton was being hyped to all hell earlier in the thread, and now he's garbage. By all accounts, he's growing into a nice 3&D guy. Burks got what? 11m? Middleton shouldn't get much less. I'd guess 10m.
 
Fans are funny. On the Milwaukee board there are some posters proclaiming they trade Brandon Knight for Exum. lololol!

And I'm sure we have posters here overvaluing Kanter

I know that Khris is young, and still could develop-- but Ariza is both a better shooter and a better defender-- and he got 4 years 8mill per. Ariza (minus his awful shooting percentages this year) is basically Middleton's best case scenario-- no?
 
I'm surprised no one would want Z-Bo coming off the bench. If you're a team with Z-Bo off the bench, you're a title contender.

*drops mic*
 
I was looking at his stats earlier, and misread them. His rookie year he shot terribly from deep. Has been above average the past two seasons. Is he undersized for small forward though?
 
He's nailing 1.3 triples a game this season. While his percentage is high, this number really isn't. For all the flak Alec got last year, Middleton only averages half a three more.

Gotta look at the 3-point attempt rate, takes a lot more 3s per FG than Alec. He's not better than Burks in my mind though, don't know if he's worth paying for OUR team.

He has started more than half the games this year. Crazy how he didn't start over a #2 overall pick. Weird how teams start those guys over players they perceive to have less potential than a #2 overall pick. Crazy stuff.

Burks has a higher ceiling than a "shooter" averaging 1.3 3s a game, and an "elite defender" who really started to defend competently (according to forum posters here who haven't even watched him play) this season.
