The thing I think about from a contract perspective and from a team building perspective is if you want to spend money on that middle tier, near star player or are you better off dumping all of your money into max level guys, have one or two DFS/Bullock contracts and then fill your roster with veterans, reclamation projects and up-and-comers. I'm not sure there is a correct answer and a lot of that assumes you can get that second and third star. Golden State has that middle tier guy in Draymond but they've forgone the Bullock/DFS style contracts.
I also kind of hate the fair market value argument as Bertans, Robinson and Harris all got fair market value and all of their teams regret the decision.
