He worked his ass off for 5 years and has earned this contract.
He's only 26 years old. He plays solid defense.
$6.3 million for this guy isn't the end of the world...

Meeks - 15.7ppg on 11.6 shots per game. Made 162 threes at a 40.1% rate.
Beal - 17.1ppg on 15.7 shots per game. Made 138 threes at a 40.2% rate.
Obviously Beal is younger... but Meeks is a HELLUVA lot better than Anthony Morrow.
