Austin Reaves Discussion: How Much Is He Worth?

I think this a massive overpay as well.

 

I don't know why yall expected him to take a discount also these contract numbers are all based on the salary cap, by that 4th year the salary won't really mean all that much unless the cap takes a nose dive.

 

. Self awareness is the first step to recovery..

 

Ah......we're the problem. 10-4

I saw plenty of examples that were given to your points of concern. None of them were saying you were wrong, just we didn't see it that way...we tried to answer stuff and instead we were the ones babbling. I'll keep that in mind in the future.

Funny how this place is not in touch with reality but everywhere else that says the Reaves deal was a bad deal, is so in touch with the times.

..................and I'm at peace with my thoughts. Moving on.

 

A little more time in the weight room and less time on the links is the first part of living up this contract

 

I’m dead certain LG is exploding in rage right now … what fun to be there for the next however many years any time a typical basketball s*** happens injury bites AR or he has a scoring game in the teens that we lose. Sounds maybe more to your liking, and that drum will be beaten endlessly no worries.

 

as if you could be more annoying, you apparently care more about what he gets paid and if he's earned it every time, rather than the Lakers being closer to winning

do you get a cut of the 185M or something?

people here in general are not worried about Reaves, he'd still be alright if he was paid 150M instead of 185M. People are rightly worried about the repercussions this may have for the future of the franchise.

 

Welcome back Austin

 

Come on he put like 10 lbs on last summer and no doubt will be at it again this summer. Only so much at a short period of time is physically possible or probably advisable for a skills type player?

 

Everyone that knows who Reaves is going to be in 5 years, where the Lakers will be in 5 years, who will be the projected #1 pick in the NBA in 5 years, and what the cap will look like in 5 years, and how trading away picks will go in 5 years.....raise your hand.

Because if you don't know what something will look like in 5 years, you must be assuming. And you know what that does to someone....................

 

Tears of the weak minded are funny.

 

LakersBall has it all. You can come here anytime to get updated on contract info, salary cap issues, player comparisons, injury updates and pretty much anything else you want to know. We have many very intelligent, informed posters that post regularly on some complex issues in a way that even I can understand. I pick up a lot of good stuff here. I like having my opinions challenged and occasionally my point of view changed. Very cool place.

 

Thank goodness there’s a nice contingent of 5 or 6 that will remind everyone daily about it too …. indefinitely.

 

I find it ironic that those who crash out over other’s opinions turn around and claim that those remaining calm are freaking out and that they “can’t handle” differing opinions.
Mental illness is real.

 

I am guessing one of the people on my ignore list is threatening to leave? Excellent.
