nah you just don't want to see it. I see it every night. Soon as I contextualize your point, you have no choice but nil. I don't give a fukk if he's the best shooting big in the league against the lottery team but goes ghost against the contenders. We ain't playing the Nets , Lakers, or suns in May
I. You didn't "contextualize" shyt - you don't even what you're talking about - you never do.

II. You shouldn't be determining whether or not a player's salary is bad based solely on their production. Let alone cherry-pick games where they don't perform, when you have players like Noah who don't perform at all.

III. You have to look at his importance to the makeup of the team v % of cap; the best shooting big man on a team whose offensive scheme is based on shooting 3s - that means his value to the team is basically irreplaceable (especially in a PnR league). Past all the surface stats, the very threat of his outside shooting affects practically everything on the offensive side of the floor - how often guards/bigs overcompensate when he's poppin out, how often Harden has a free run to the rim/paint because Anderson drags his opposite out, how often teams get caught up in switches because they're worried about his shooting, how often opposition teams don't send help to ballhandlers because they're worried about his shooting etc etc.

You don't even know how to use the advance metrics your presenting. All I did was put your numbers into context.l, which we esybcubi have the eye test to help me. You gotta be able to break down the number to its roots. Ryan Anderson doesn't show up where it counts most against the best teams in the league. That's an issue. It been one. And on top of that he's hesisitant to shoot the open shot. He's not the worst contract in the league. That was hyperbole accompanied by a smiley. I just think 20milliin should get you more.

1st Round Playoff Exits
i would literally drive noah to houston myself if i could trade him for ryan anderson
you know you wouldnt take him :laff:
you say all this...but he's still a 40 percent shooter from 3.
the objective of the game is to put the ball in the hole...ryan can atleast do that.
noah cant stop someone from doing that...and he cant do it himself.
noah is getting his minutes ate up by a rookie....that makes less than 1/15th of his salary
Kyle o'Quinn = Ryan Anderson....why would you get same player twice....
