Is D'Angelo a 4yr, $117mil player in your opinion? $29mil/yr.

Is Jaylen a 4yr, $116mil player? Also $29yr.


only he was never close to 20/5/5 or plated good let alone great D nevermind injuries and poor shooting and finishing.

yes on dlo. no on brown. but brown is better now, healther with a higher ceiling

dlo is alot better then both

LeVert is better than Brown. Way more skilled. Brown is probably one of the most overrated players in the league at this point.

Caris had a subpar game and put up 20/5/4.

His defense needs to improve and needs to be more consistent offensivelly but the talent is there.

Brown is awful. Zero instincts. All brawn no BBIQ. No chance of becoming a star player but can become solid role player.

Totally different.

There is not alot of evidence that Levert is better than brown. Brown has better raw stats, better efficiency, better advanced stats and has done it on better/winning teams. Brown is 3 years younger and doesnt have a long injury history...

Look I hate Brown, but it is hard to objectively say that Levert is better. There isnt alot of evidence to support levert having a better season either, given brown is younger with better physical tools and frame

is brown overpaid? hell yes. but that isnt evidence he is worse then levert.

Caris is a good player with upside, but 25 year olds dont get paid the way 22 year olds do. its why heild got so much less than brown did. guys with injury histories dont get pay the way healthy players do either

can levert outplay his contract? 100% if he stays healthy. but he isnt on a bargain, the reason he got 17 million and not 25 million is because of the risk with his injury history and being older coming off his rookie deal.
