    Speights is not a better player than Ryan Anderson.

    I mean it looks that way when you are playing on the Warriors and get to shoot open shots all game long and with little pressure because you are already up 20...

    Hope he has a great year and puts up big numbers in D'Antoni's system so we have the flexibility to move his contract if we get a superstar to commit in free agency.

    If it doesn't work out by the trade deadline and Dirk is still unhappy with the Maverick's situation. Maybe a Ryan Anderson for Dirk Norwitzki swap could work out for the best? Dirk still better than Ryan.. for a title run.

    Draymond Green has 15.3, 16.4, 17.5 and 18.5

    Klay Thompson has 16.6, 17.8 and 18.9,

    just saying, Ryan anderson is getting more than these guys and he has never made an all nba team or all star team

    How many times does it need to be stated that this is a different cap era.

    the same can be said about that massive contract Conley received (compared to other point guards)...this offseason was crazy - it will get even crazier next year.

    Are these accurate yr by yr?

    This could be troubling.. Shoulders are uneven and he has started to develop facial asymmetry... That's not good. Points to movement imbalances..

    It appears facial assymetry was always there. As for the uneven shoulders... have you ever seen Nolan Ryan? Didn't seem to effect him.

    Klay was paid 23.7% of the possible salary at the time.
    Green was handed 21.8% of the possible salary at the time.
    Anderson was paid 19.8% of the possible salary.

    Still an over pay, but please stop comparing players contracts by numbers and start to compare prior contracts through percentages.

    Weird that 329 of Ryno's 357 3PT attempts in 2015-16 were either "open" or "wide open" according to @nbastats. Must be a computer glitch.
