He's not top 5 at all he's a good defender but stop acting like he's elite on the level of Bradely, Allen, Kawhi, or Draymond.

Staph
Westbroook
Cp3
Wall
Lillard are miles better

Then you have guys like Lowry, Bledsoe, Kyrie, Conley who have proven more and are arguably better too.

Thats exactly our pitch. Especially with his injuries in the past. Thats why he won't get ridiculous money. We have the chance to get him on a great value just based on his peers. Look at the current year contracts for PGs:

CP3 - $21MM
Rose - $20MM
Westbrook - $17MM
Irving - $16MM
Wall - $16MM
Bledsoe - $14MM
Lowry - $12MM
Curry - $11MM
Holiday $11MM
Conley - $10MM

Obviously, his worth will be determined alot based on his play/injury status next year, but even with the contracts going up, he still will probably only get $15MM-$17MM. I would absolutely pay him that. Because there are so many other great PGs in the league right now, you get to pay him a good bit less than that top teir, but when healthy he isn't far behind them on the court.

Lots of stupidity in this thread. We have a guard that gets ad the ball and plays good to great defense. But compare him to Kawhi and Green (two wings btw) and yeah maybe he's not that good haha.

The argument of AD Jrue and Ryno not being good enough to make the playoffs falls on Ryan Anderson more than anything. He was hot and cold all year and played zero defense.

The true problem this team has is zero direction from the front office. We have a bunch of injured players that don't fit our coaches scheme.

But let's trade our second best player. That'll make us better!
