Intriguing....
As for criteria, that's tough. Like you said, how do you balance the value of years of contractual control vs. talent? Is 7 years of a top 100ish player more valuable than 1 year of a top 30 talent? That in of itself is an interesting debate.
It probably depends on how close you are to contending. If you are close, you probably want 1 year top 30 player. If you are not, you take the long-term value and potential, IMO. I don't think we or anyone really is close to the GSW.
