[QUOTE="kg01, post: 936025, member: 11"] I hope I did this right. Tried to move the convo to a more appropriate thread. Can't really look at salary that way. Teams don't necessarily choose the exact dollar figures. It's percentage of the cap in a particular year, which changes every year. So the timing matters. If Jokic were a free agent this year, his salary would be more. Heck, Bradley Beal iiuc is the highest paid player rn. Every "offensive engine" can be considered a bad defender. That's not an issue specific to Young. And there are lots of players one should take over him. I won't argue that. But that doesn't mean he's a bad or overhyped player. Whether the Hawks win with him or not depends, as is the case with every player, on how the team is built around him. Say what you will about those other guys but the reality is, at this point, the Hawks have progressed further in the playoffs than both DEN and DAL. And before it's said that Luka will "surely" win a title at some point, I'll remind you he plays for a pretty bad owner when it comes to building a team. Right now, all Luka's guaranteed to do is put up individual numbers. [/QUOTE]
