Awesome contract, even if we wanted to move him before it’s up he’s a valuable asset in a trade on this contract.

I think I’ve lost track on what is a good contract so I’ll take your word on it. But sounds like a lot for someone who is probably better of coming of the bench.

it's short and only 16m/yr

look at the players around him and those with bigger contracts than him, plenty of guys I take PJ over in a heartbeat and he is still young with potential. He averaged over 15pts/game last year on ok %s, is solid defensively and on the boards, even if he doesn't get any better, this contract is not an issue and easily tradeable if need be. 

He may be better off the bench but there are plenty of guys who do come off the bench making more so that wouldn't make it a bad contract. And as is I think this should be our starting 5:

PG: LaMelo

SG: Miller

SF: Miles

PF: PJ

C: Mark

Meh....not really excited about this because im not high on PJ and i absolutely did not want to overpay for him. I think he has underachieved since his rookie year. Thing is, i actually was high after his rookie year cuz he showed a lot of promise then the inconsistency started. Miles ended up jumping ahead of him far as a priority player so i thought we would never end up keeping both. I will say this deal is pretty reasonable so im not pissed and he can be traded in the future easily with a deal like this.

Meh we're not doing much in the foreseeable future I could see him improving just as much as I could see him remaining the same inconsistent player he's been to this point. But I like PJ. I'd rather pay guys like him than have bums like Hayward keeping the bench warm all season for a hundred plus million.
