Guys who could become serviceable parts of a good team, maybe even a championship team, but had contracts significantly bigger than their performance.
But, what the new CBA is teaching us is that there is no room on a championship roster for underperforming contracts.
Maybe we'd be tempted to exchange some of our negative-value contracts (Bertans, McGee, maybe THJ? Or Bullock?) for other teams' negative contracts. But Ayton's contract is REALLY negative, IMO, and hangs around on your books for a long time.
If you're thinking this way, AND you're Cuban's burner account, this post rules.
