More from Stein:
There will have to be some sort of cost-cutting if the annual salary for Thybulle is higher than $9 million. The specific move is not yet clear. But I've been saying for days that McGee would not be back. One way or another he will not be on the roster.
There are 3 ways this can happen, right?
1. Trade
2. Waive (presumably stretch waive)
3. Medical retirement
Other teams get out of bad contracts via #3 all the time, it seems. And then the “retired” player recovers and plays for another team a year later. Isn’t that what LaMarcus Aldridge and Joe Ingles did recently?
Pessimism doesn’t make you smart, just pessimistic.
