2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[SleepingHero]

It's not a reasonable or rational standard to think that 'anything better than Maxi' (who is paid less than MLE) is worth max money (which Collins is getting). If you're paying max (or giving value to get such a player), you need to be getting MAX-worthy production.

Collins has averaged close to 20ppg on incredible efficiency the last 4 years. Is that not worth max money? He also has all the tools to be a switchable big on defense with the right motivation. 

Could he not grow and become a good defensive player under Kidd? The same coach that turned Powell into a plus defender? 

IF Collins became that is that not max-worthy production? He's also only 24 years old.
