What if salary was based on actual performance?

*Note this is just for fun but interesting regardless.

Interesting to see Dre being among the elite in terms of salary to production with the likes of the Brow and co. Only players like Lebron, KD, and co broke the 20 mil mark which is rightly justified.

Singler got a nice boost in production even though he's ok.

Meeks also is literally GOAT in terms of production so maybe we did get a decent deal for him. Time will tell of course.

And I won't even mention Josh Smith in this one. I think it's abundantly clear hahahaha.

Also, how could I forget the methodology and full credits?

It's funny that Jennings is actually producing around his salary. Who would have thunk it?
Singler doesn't surprise me.

You mentioned Meeks, but all the new guys out produced their salary.

This would be better, IMO, if players who suffered injuries while playing (essentially on-the-job injuries) were not judged so harshly. There's really no way the NBA could ever punish players for getting injured so what use does it have to make a calculation that does so?

Also what formula is this guy using where Robin Lopez has more win shares than LaMarcus Aldridge did last year :o

^No clue.

I mean clearly, for a lot of players for this formula are going to have weird results.

Having said that, i think for the most part it's a fairly decent view of the players right now to at least see what they're worth in pure numbers.

Do we really need two threads for this reddit post?

Hey man, I posted earlier!

Although his thread looks more better than mine since he has embedded images while I just posted and left my house.

Mods can close this if you want.
