I think it's because they weren't going to be able to have him under contract if they were to sign Aldridge. Tgey couldn't sign him until all of that was resolved and I'm sure he got put on the back burner until Bev and Brewer were dealt with.
An ordinary two will be a "Double Dekker" and a double double will become a "Double Dekker Squared." This will get ugly before the season is over.
So when he inevitably gets whistled for a non foul on a star like Curry, will we get: Dekker!? He barely touched her!

And if he posterizes someone on a dunk, it could be called a Double Dekker with a side of fries. Keep it going...
