15 mil for Nene seems absurd when Lebron James made only 14.5 Mil.So I got to thinking and came up with a formula to calculate the value of players. It is mainly based on PER which doesn't take defense into account. The basic formula uses PER, SALARY, and an adjuster PER. The reason for the adjusted PER is for this case: Suppose player one has PER of 10 and make 100 dollars then his value is 100/10, but suppose you have player 2 who has a per of 30 but makes 300 dollars well player A and B have the same value but player two is much more valuable since very few players can provide what he does. So in my rankings adj PER is just Per divided by the rank. For example if there are a 100 players player 1's adj PER would be 30/(1/100) since only 1 out of 100 players can provide what he does. So essentially it is an exponential effect given how much more star players are worth. Based on my ranking nene would be the 87th best value last year and he is going to go lower with a 15 mil contract. Pau is ranked 40th.

NBA maximum contracts is the worst thing for small market teams. Lebron James is worth way more than 14.5 Mil. Superfriends in Miami would never have happened if Lebron could sign for more than the max deal. Lebron might have joined Wade, but their is no way Lebron and Wade leave money on the table for Bosh. I am still shocked that the max didn't get changed. It would seem the players association and the small markets would be allies on this issue. It would prevent the fun cities from stocking up on stars under the cap as each guy wants as much as he can get. The players association tends to favor free movement of players and getting the stars whatever they want.
This table has nothing to do how good a player just value vs amount of money paid. That why Arenas is dead last.
So wait, this is basically a ranking of "bang-for-your-buck" value, based on last years salary (and production)? If so, you may want to make positional adjustments to account for scarcity.
My script has problem with players who played with multiple teams since it uses Basketball reference and espn Per ranking. Peja should be 299 not 21 since that 21 salary is bogus.
You should remove all rookie contracts. And this says Ryan Anderson is the 8th most valuable player in the NBA. Think about that for a minute.
By their nature rookie contracts represent the best value. You get good to elite players for bargain prices.
PER is a fairly poor stat and not a really good measure of whether a player is good or not. Starting with a flawed stat then matching it against salary = bad results all round!
