    Hard to say, everyone goes on and on about his insane potential, and I know what the mean. But, he has yet to really show that he will live up to it, except for in flashes.

    That being said, he has been very impressive lately and if he keeps it up he may have finally turned the corner.

    It takes a special talent like Kevin Love to get the max while his team is in the lottery every year.

    Only the Wizards could possibly give a max contract to a guard who cant shoot

    Surpisingly...the Wizards are 18-15 since he returned from injury.

    Not saying that makes him worth a max contract, but if he could turn that franchise around and get a winning season under his belt, it's possible he will get one. Harden got one and he was a sixth man.

    Short sample size, but since March, 20.1ppg, 4.5rpg, 7.7apg, 2.1spg, 52.4%fg.

    He has potential. And he does have the work ethic. But I would need a longer sample size than half a month.

    I'd absolutely love for the Wizards to give him the max and be stuck in mediocrity.

    Why would he NOT say he deserves the max. It's called ne-go-tia-tion

    He is worth more than J Lin but less than Max

    The best player on your team is not automatically a max player. A hard lesson that cost some GMs their job.
