Simple question for TL: Is playoff Duren worth a max contract? The answer will always be the same.

Regular season Duren isn't even worth a max contract.

You don't max a Center unless he's an MVP candidate. You laugh uncontrollably if an agent brings up the max for a rim running Center that isn't a good defender and can't shoot outside of 3 feet.

He's a starter and a high level role player. Average starter salary is 23M, so he should get just a bit more than that.

if someone wants to pay duren north of $30m, let them.

of course, we all know were going to pay duren.  were just fooling ourselves.
