$6mil for a player that should be coming off the bench is too much. Wes is an inconsistent role player.

Don't get the point of this post?
If PER average is 15, he is at 14.1, below average.
Wes had a nice start to the season and then regressed. Wes simply isn't worth this escalating contract:
$6,505,320
$6,875,480
$7,245,640

It's average of NBA players, not startersPER is normalized such that 15 represents the average NBA starter. Thus observations about him being a glorified bench player are mostly correct; he's slightly below average for a starter.

Afflalo is overpaid as well and has a crappy contract. This may come as a shock, but there are more that 2 bad contracts in the NBA.

Enough of this stupid talk. It's draft day.
Seth Davis - "NBA people I talked to had Lillard as the best PG in the country since Decemeber."
Dispels the myth that Lillard has only come on lately that I've read here.
I have tried to be fairly calm about it, but I really hope we snag Lillard
