Dillon Brooks got 4years 80million while Austin Reaves only managed 4 years 56million

I've been saying it for years - GOBB is super washed at this point. Like if MJ would have came back at age 45.

GOBB is just plain dumb in this thread. Shooting 2-26 with 8 turnovers type shit.

Austin is like 95 percent of what Gordan Hayward was in Utah. The talent level is very very similar. To get him for what the Lakers did this off season considering the market value of other players, is an absolute steal. It's one of the best value contracts in the league right now.

Sheesh.

GOBB has made some braindead posts in this thread but somehow this went mostly glossed over. You should have just left it at a steal and great value contract but instead had to say something monumentally stupid.

Lakers really underpaid AR15. I see a franchise player on a peanuts deal. Just wow.

Reaves averaging 15|5|5 on 50fg% since Gobb made this post, beats Brooks in every statistical category.

More proof that you are out of touch with today's league.

Eh dillons been really good this year actually been playing up to his contract. He completely transformed his shot selection and still all-defense caliber. 3rd best player on a decent team with only one star in sengun. Austin is obviously underpaid still and deserved at least something like bogdan bogdanovics extension

Brooks has cooled off considerably after his hot start. Has a FG% of around 40% since January. Currently at 13|3|2 on 56 TS% for the season.

Reaves on the other hand at 16|6|4 on 62 TS%.

That doesn't include tonight's game where he just dropped 29|14|10

Gobb made a fool out of himself yet again.

He always does, from about 2013-current.

I wonder what Reaves numbers would be on a shitty team with high usage. I think he would have a chance at 25/5/5 is this era.

He's basically a less athletic version of Ginobili, very crafty, love his game.

It's also funny how overrated Gordon is. He was an under 20 ppg scorer for almost his entire career and was a average playmaker at best. Usually averaging 3/4 assists.

You'd think I was saying he was 95 percent of Mitch Richmond or something. He never finished with ANY mvp voting points in his career and was a one time all star.

Imagine watching the game, and thinking like this.

@OP, guess what?
Most athletes will take 15-20million less over a few years contract, to stay with a team they like, in a city they like…. And in order to ALLOW the organization to sign other good role players, increasing their chance on winning another ring.

Not everyone is a zero sum bean counting selfish, anti-team-chemistry jerkoff like you.

Rui and D’Lo have been rolling too at just the right time. All three players on team friendly deals. Rob Pelinka is a damn genius

Theyre ninth place in the conference. “Damn genius” feels excessive.

If they dont get up into that first play-in bracket and nab the seventh seed, theyre likely looking at a date with Denver, IF they win both play-in games to secure the 8 seed. Theyre currently two games back on that 7/8 play-in contest.

It’s still looks fairly grim for the Lakers.

Crazy that AR went undrafted. Super clutch player and shooter. Triple double last night on the road vs the fully load Bucks. And buried Dame in crunchtime.

Reaves is pretty lackluster defensively and that's part of the reason US got clapped in FIBA. I think they essentially balance out considering Brooks is much better defensively and Reaves is better offensively. If one is better than the other it's not by much.

[rawimpact]

The guy is 25 with one good season. Not great. Not elite. And got rewarded $56mil guaranteed over the next 4 years. And idiots here actually think he got lowballed, shafted. It’s mind boggling.

And what’s annoying is posters here are slow. They read a post like this and interpret it as me saying Austin Reaves is a tuna can. He’s dog water. He flat out can’t get better. When all I’m saying is how the hell does he justify getting any more than the deal he was offered? Based on what Dillon brooks and Draymond green received? Ridiculous

Such a stupid take...

He wanted to play with the Lakers so waited it out.

Had a great game against the Bucks. That game was extremely good. So intense.

DiVincenzo just got 50 million for 4 years from the Knicks, not close to the player Reaves is.

Pelinka taking souls.

DiVincenzo is way better than Reaves. Lay off the crack
