ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

Exactly and I don’t know that there is even 1 team that wants to pay a 32 yo backup C any more than vet min, let alone the full MLE. Say what you guys will about counting stats, but teams pay for them and consequently don’t pay for the lack of them.

His leadership is worth something certainly.  I just think a lot of what he does will be offset in the playoffs.  We also already overpaid him last time around.  Take one for the team, Dwight and you'll certainly find yourself on the coaching staff to help make up for the "home team discount".
