    Does this mean Sheppard gets to be the instant starter?

    This sucks! On the other hand, if it is gonna happen, it is the best to have it before the season. It gives the whole team a lot more time to adjust and maybe there is a chance he returns by playoff time.

    It certainly forces a stubborn IME to play better upside players.

    Not to be a vulture, but Stone better use the DPE pronto (give us ~12.5M to use on a player)
