Nuggets wasting their MLE on another guy that won't help come playoff time?

Negative. It’s even more important for role players to get theirs. It’s easy handing out these max deals. Thai agent either messed up and got his client thinking he was worth more or his client told him to pass and get him more. If agent is fired, we know the answer
Teams know better now though after seeing what paying Heat role guys has brought them :lol:

He was never getting a better deal from elsewhere because nowhere else would value him as much
 
Still rooting for Gabe Vincent to beat the former HEAT role player allegations and be solid on a different team because he went to UCSB. But I’m not optimistic.
 
Good deal for the Hornets w/ Miles. It would’ve been absurd to let him walk after already taking the PR hit for bringing him back. Not to mention how many players of that level actually want to come to Charlotte w/out a huge payout?

Hope he keeps his head on straight and then knocks the rust off that clearly showed last season.
Is it actually a good deal? He presumably didn’t have a whole lot of leverage this late. Only a few teams with cap space and he has clear red flags. He’s not a guy I’d be willing to pay the “suck tax” for
