Carter williams has the better deal, no question. you have him under control for 2 more years on his Rookie Year. He can't shoot to save his life and IMO has regressed this yr. I watch a ton of sixer games both live and on TV. He won Rookie of the year and is the best player, right now, on that team...but I'm not big on him in the long term and theres a reason the siers have been shopping him since last years draft.

Knight will get significantly less than 20M a year, no? Probably more along the lines of what IT3 got?

We really shouldn't be concerned with "right now." And it's a problem having to pay Knight based on just 30+ games. But this front office doesn't seem to have a problem that sort of situation.
In terms of contract, MCW's is preferable. In terms of development, Knight is actually 2 months younger than MCW.
LOL, there you go with those birth certificates.

Whos payin him on 30+ games? What does his prior playing experience not count because he wasn't on the suns?

I am sure I will get to appreciate Knight, but unless he makes another big leap, I just can't justify giving up the LAL pick to get him when he is about to get a new contract.

I would have been ok with just dumping IT3, trading Dragic and finding Plumlee a new team.

the 1st round in 2017 from Miami is protected top 7...the other pick from Miami is not protected but it's in 2021.

Really not much different than Jason Kidd at the same point in their careers. A step below in talent and potential, but very similar. No wonder Kidd traded for him.

You may be kidding, but if not, how is it not relevant?

He refused a 9 mil year extension for the Bucks.

I honestly can't tell. Well, he is not getting 20M, that's for sure, but wouldn't be surprise if he lands $9M per. Above all I hate having to deal with another restricted free agent.

Well before this season, Knight has really struggled. So unfortunately, his prior experience does count and that should add to need for caution.

Based on his play this year, he'll probably get Bledsoe money.

He definitely shares a lot of the blame dropping his bomb 48 hours from the deadline.
