Yes, we have the biannual exception. But consider that the Pistons will pay Smith the whole salary for this season already.
Remember depth was a problem entering this year w/ Josh Smith we will have a bench of Brewer, Papa, Smith, Terry, Jones?, Some Russian Guy.

Alright. So this is going to proof of whether or not Les is actually invested in this team for wins. If we don't try to sign Josh Smith then it will have proven Les does not want to shell out money to contend.
