If you look at their first three years in the NBA their Per 100 Poss averages are very similar. Now, TJ is a year older than JJ entering his fourth year and his lack of playmaking skills limits his ceiling in comparison to Johnson.
If Warren can take a step forward in shooting and defense (like JJ did but not to that level) they will have a bargain contract on their hands.

I think TJ of the last couple years is worth about $10 mil per. If he can stay healthy, I think that's more like $14. If he can play like he did down the stretch last year or at the beginning, $16. If he added defensive consistency, that's about $18. If he hits two threes a game shooting 36% or better, now we're talking $22. I think the lack of great ballhandling/playmaking skills caps him out at around $24 (assuming both D and 3 ball come together).
All IMO, but yeah, I think it's a bargain contract.
