If OKC had Maxi he wouldn't be on the court because he is out with injury. And that is the problem. His availability is on a significant downward trend and games missed does not even tell the entire story, because sometimes he plays hurt and is a shell of himself. And its not about how valuable I think he is, its about what other teams think. And this was a thread about dumping salary, so its only rebuilding cap space teams that we are talking about. Those teams are not looking for a 32 year old defensive specialist who can't stay on the court. He provides no value to them. Someone suggested dumping his salary to make room for DJJ (which I would be against even if possible) but it doesn't make sense for either team.
