    According to this projection, Chris Paul's value over the next 3 seasons is projected to be $54 million, $48.5million, and $30.9 million, for a total of $133.4million. Meanwhile, he only makes $124 million.

    Harden at like $480 million over the next 5 years.

    League should get rid of max contract nonsense and make sure the talent gets disbursed.

    Is he willing to pay Paul?


    Didn’t think so...


    So now is the time for him to be quiet.

    Do yourself a favor, check out MCW’s value. And turn off that website for good.

    It's best to just accept Tillman being an ass. And yes Chris Paul is a max player today. Without a doubt considering the contracts being tossed around.

    He was actually good in Orlando, on both ends playing on a team with an actual offensive system.

    James Harden did extremely well according to this thingy. The majority of metrics were very high, a few were average, and only one was below average, and it won't surprise anyone here, or shouldn't. Turnovers. Look at the comparisons! Wow.

    Bro, if CP does way better than last year, can we have you start calling him CP3 again. :D

    CARMELO says we should be all in on Kevin Looney (he gone) + Noah Vonleh + Boogie + KOQ + Luke Kornet

    Yes but if he produces excellent numbers against the best teams in the NBA after 32+ minutes for several playoff games in a row then sometimes he doesn't give full energy on some plays when the ball is in the hands of our second playmaker.

    So really it doesn't matter that he otherwise does enough to be worth $480m.
