    The Beal contract was the ultimate testament to Washington's incompetence. They just refused to be bad, not realizing that the worst thing you can be in the NBA is almost good.

    I get your point of wanting to lock up players like embiid, jokic, and giannis, but giannis specifically since i'm a bucks fan, although embiid as well, make me nervous since their playstyle doesnt typically age well, and we're paying him until he's 34

    When you're talking about VORP, specifically the Lavine-White comparison, it's not accurate to define White as a "replacement player" for Lavine. It's a generically defined abstract stat, not a numerical comparison to a real player on the same team or a bench player. Coby White actually has a higher VORP than Lavine this year, which indicates he's more impactful compared to a statistically decent, non-real player. That doesn't inherently mean he should be replacing Lavine, because they both have a positive VORP. Love the way you handle advanced stats, I just don't want them to be used to misrepresent what they actually quantify.
    Otherwise, banger as usual. Keep it up my guy

    • @whatslaps
      @whatslaps  8 місяців тому +2

      I hear you and you're right. I meant it as two sort of separate ideas. His plus minus is low and Coby is playing really well. Bulls would probably be the same with Lavine or White at this point. Good call out.

    Beal's contract is unbelievable for the player he's been since signing it. Paul's deal is pretty crazy for his age too, no shade at him for/as a player, the man has done his job well mostly throughout his career in the league, but yeah, pretty long in the tooth for that kind of money/length. Phoenix wild for being involved with both of those guys/contracts. Going to be interesting to see what happens with Mr. Harden. Zachy boy ain't earning that dough either, what a shame. Agree about Brown, seems fair for everybody. Thanks again for the vid, appreciate you homie.

      This is going to be a crazy off-season. A lot of old heads looking for work. I'd love to be a consultant for an NBA team just from the business side it's so interesting. Being an agent would suck though unless I was Bruce Brown's agent.

      occasionally you'll see contracts that go down. Jaren Jackson Jr and Jalen Brunson's both do. Max contracts are based on a percentage of the salary cap so they always go up
