I'm not worried about it.

I know Kleiza and his special ops team will take care of stupid ESPN on an off day this season

Landry Fields is #164, Former Raptor Jarrett Jack is #161

Here are the salaries and ages of the players around Fields on this ESPN list. Although this list is far from an exact science, or an accurate one at that, it is interesting to see that this small sample size depicts some glaringly bad contracts. I chose age because there is always a "potential" aspect in a contract and I didn't want to be exhaustive in providing information like contract length and role on team. Thought it could at least drum up some discussion.

#161 - 5.58 million - 28 yrs old
#162 - 4.6 million - 30 yrs old
#163 - 8.28 million - 26 yrs old
Fields - 6.24 million - 24 yrs old
#165 - 6 million - 27 yrs old
#166 - 3.75 million - 31 yrs old
#167 - 1.4 million - 27 yrs old
#168 - 3 million - 24 yrs old
#169 - 5.1 million - 24 yrs old
#170 - rookie contract
#171 - 1 million - 27 yrs old
#172 - 9 million - 26 yrs old
#173 - 4.25 million - 28 yrs old
#174 - 3.6 million -26 yrs old
#175 - 3 million - 30 yr old
#176 - 3.75 million - 29 yr old
#177 - rookie contract
#178 - 5.75 million - 29 yrs old
#179 - rookie contract
#180 - 4 million - 27 yrs old

#161 - 5.58 million - 28 yrs old
#163 - 8.28 million - 26 yrs old
Fields - 6.24 million - 24 yrs old
#165 - 6 million - 27 yrs old
#169 - 5.1 million - 24 yrs old
#172 - 9 million - 26 yrs old
#178 - 5.75 million - 29 yrs old

Just to hone it down a little finer. Within 1.4 million more to 2.75 million less than those up to 10 slots lower than him in the rankings and .75 million more to 2 million less than those up to 2 slots higher than him in the rankings.

Nice job Coach. Certainly puts things into perspective.
