I haven't seen details of Courtney Lee's new deal but it seems odd that he resigned when he's unlikely to make the roster.
Without digging into the details on the NBA salary cap, is it possible the Mavs signed him to a big number, much of which may be non guaranteed?
For example, say he resigned at $13 million with only $2 million guaranteed?
Is that doable? Would that make him an ultimate trade chip sort of like the famous DUST (Dampier Ultimate Sign & Trade) chip, that counted as a big number for trade-matching, but would vanish upon being waived by the acquiring team?
