Immediately regretted not titling the thread: The Pleiss is Right.

I never understand why they use a decimal place there when it should be a comma.

No details. Keep in mind Pleiss onset have much leverage, cuz any sum would be way more than he's getting in Europe. Like Tomic is making 3 mill euro a year. Pennies. What a ****ing moron.
Jack Cooley and/or Jerrett are done.

Things I like about Pleiss:
- unreal shooting mechanics for a dude his size. I've seen him hit like 20 footers in-game (rare, wasn't demanded of him ever). His FT% is >80.
- he's really, really ambidextrous. Automatic hook-shots with either hand, has a simple repertoire of up-and-unders
- He was better defensively than Tomic IMO. He's quite mobile, but he might lack a bit of strength.
- Less 'soft' than Tomic-- enjoys finishing through contact. Hoping that mentality transfers over into the NBA as well. He always shot an incredibly high percentage from the field, mostly through the creation of good Barcelona guard-play.
- rebounded well in Europe given the minutes
- doesn't foul very much
We could do a lot, lot worse for a backup 5 IMO. I'm optimistic. He had a good year in his season before signing with Barcelona, and OKC was trying to pick him up. Didn't end up working out, and he had a down-year playing behind Tomic. He's still pretty young.

For those of us that don't know, that's about $3.31M US. In new NBA dollars, pennies is accurate.
