They did not spend the BAE on Boban (that’s still going to Sterling Brown)… they used early Bird rights and actually gave him a raise!

If they are going to be over the cap anyway (and they are), then using early Bird rights only has two effects
1) Cuban is spending a bit more than he has too
2) Might actually be useful as trade filler at some point.

Could be worse. At least it is not Burke. Imagine a team signing a player that was out of the league for more than the minimum. Nevermind...

I would rather START Burke than have Boban on the roster.
If it were up to me he wouldn't even be allowed entry when whichever team did pay came to town. He'd have to wait at the hotel.

and ...?
It's not enough (particularly if the second year is not guaranteed and/or TO as someone suggested) to affect anything the team does or wants to do in the next few years (unless, again, it happens to help put trade math together). So why do you want to hurt Boban? Everyone loves Boban. Except monsters...

That would actually make me feel a lot better. I'll hope for this.

I think you are missing the forest from the trees. That THJ contract looks way better now. That was great news. You can almost look at the Boban contract as good news. It suggests Cuban is less miserly than feared and possibly increases likelihood the will actually try to spend the TPE. These two contracts end any thought that we will operate under the cap.

Yeah, it's a steal. I'm happy about that, for sure.

I think some Toronto fans will boo him to start the season if he makes it that far. Maybe that is part of the plan, make yourself a little toxic.
