Why people want to cut SF? Don't you know we owed his salary either way? if we need to cut sot and save money, we need to cut either DJ or von. Those two are not guarantee money until in mid-season. Also we can do trade 2 for 1 or 1 or draft to get extra spot open or save money. come one people get with the program!
I didn't think we gave him that big of a salary. I'd rather keep Von and DJ. If we could trade SF and Head for 2nd rounders or 2 for 1, I'd be fine with it.
you are not paying them the money. whatever makes sense to the business is fine. neither Von/DJ is going to be play much anyways.
God, hate to see Mike Harris go. I hope he finds another team and does well there, preferably a bad one like Memphis or Charlotte where he can show his skills.
I think we should have a rule that anybody that proposes to cut/waive a player with a guarnteed contract should be demoted to Rookie status after the first incident. Repeated offenses means your status changed to FAIL.
