I don't know that he'll get enough FGAs to average 24 off the bench. If he's traded, another team might ask him to shoot less and facilitate more.Revenged25 wrote:jbk1234 wrote:I think one of the reasons Sexton's agent is angry is because it's not all certain he'll get that deal if the Cavs don't give it to him.

Considering efficient 24 ppg players get a max deal, it's just a matter of fact, if the Cavs still gave him starter minutes and usage even though he's coming off the bench then I'd be perfectly fine with still giving him the max, and I'm sure him and his agent wouldn't complain either since he got his money. I mean sure it would be nice to have some more scoring from our bigs, but we could have 3 20+ ppg scorers in the backcourt and 2 of them would likely be on the court at all times which means we could get away with having less scoring from our bigs. Though our bigs would have much larger defensive responsibilities.

I think Sexton would be 3 or 4th on their lists. I think #1 on both the Knicks or Thunder's lists to max will be SGA though. Though seriously, if he were to come off the bench this year and still score 24+ ppg efficiently, then he's getting a max and no one will bat an eye at it since that's what efficient 24 ppg gets.
