BREAKING: John Wall & Wiz are nearing agreement on five-year deal in $80 mil range

[The Macho Man]

Not a single person in this thread watched the Wizards last year they were hilariously better when he finally came back. Dude deserves this contract. Isn't ****ing Roy Hibbert getting paid the max?

[KyrieTheFuture]

Forgive me, everyone hating on the contract hasn't watched them. How could anyone watch how he improved and say he doesn't deserve the max?

[PleezeBelieve]

LMAO @ putting empty stats when your team has the 2nd worst record in the league enough to justify getting 16 mill a year.

Are you kidding me?

[PleezeBelieve]

Rondo is a better player than this guy and he makes 25 mill less.

Child, please

[IncarceratedBob]

Can't believe the lakers

Why not just offer wall and George 20 million next year

[KyrieTheFuture]

I don't have the numbers but I'm almost positive they were over .500 with him in the lineup. Also, how does Rondo signing the friendliest contract in the league have anything to do with what Wall deserves?

With Wall and Nene Healthy they were a playoff team.

[Xiao Yao You]

You can say the same thing about everyone who isn't winning titles(cp3, love, Howard etc.). They have to give him the max, it would be stupid not to.

This is nothing like Gilbert's situation.

They could wait til next summer. See if he can put it all together for a whole year first. He finally looked like he got it late last year but that's a lot money for potential.

With Wall and Nene Healthy they were a playoff team.

Nene won't stay healthy though.

Thats only for the people who dont know how to actually evaluate basketball players themselves, without mindlessly falling back on judging individual players by team successes.

They have to give him the max, it would be stupid not to.

People such as yourself.

With Wall and Nene Healthy they were a playoff team.

This, if Beal and Wall can stay healthy and Nene can play in like 65+ games they should easily be a playoff team.

[Xiao Yao You]

Hasn't played 65 games the past 2 years.

[Jameerthefear]

Just needs to keep developing that jump shot.

[hawkfan]

Max contract players should be able to make their team at least playoff competitive.

If he's healthy next year, maybe that will happen.

But right now, it's too early to tell and too early to give him that contract.

[SpurrDurr]

Next year Wizards ill make the POs and he ll shut you all up.

Last year when he played, Wizards were a POs team, there is no doubt about his talent. The only doubts are about his health.

[KyleKong]

Does he deserve a huge contract? Yes

Max? Hell naw.
