Was thinking the same thing.
Disappointed to find out I must be wrong.

Because you're a genius and every GM in the league is too dumb to look at per 36 minutes stats like you. Got it.
He just went full retard.

I didn't read the whole thread. Too low or too high?
I could buy into this argument if there were examples of players who just needed more minutes to prove what they otherwise couldn't prove. There are very few great NBA players who aren't a known commodity in short order.
Favors will grow and consistent minutes might give him confidence (it might kill it too). Hayward has a shot at a true breakout year so I agree with you on locking him up now if possible. That's why his value is so hard to judge. Favors is in a different boat b/c bigs are very hard to judge.

Dunno. Simply saying it's unnerving for me to be in agreement with you.

So you are telling me a guy that averages a double double and leads the league in blocks won't get a huge contract? Right now, he is worth a lot of money. Not max, but a lot. He will be worth a lot more after this coming season.
Why don't you just say what you really mean? It is tiresome to have to read your posts and try to decode what we think you might mean. Do you think we should extend favors, and if so, how much is he worth?

I don't know. Sure, low ball. Low balling isn't going to work unless Hayward and Favors aren't really sure if they can do it. If they know they've got the goods they aren't taking the easy money now.
So it's sort of a logical puzzle. They take the low ball offer it means they want the easy pay day and they're going to be phoning it in.
Let them show who they are and pay them a fair price. That's what I say. This isn't the time for bargain shopping with long term commitments.
