2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

So whose decision was it to sign WCS for $4.1 mil this year?
Really need a process review so mindless crap like that doesn't happen again. At no point did that make any sense. Especially after trading for Moses and signing Boban

Actually once we decided to operate over the cap it made total sense (and shows that Cuban is not super cheap).  It was a team option and he was already here so we could sign him over the cap.  He had some defensive value the last couple of years but also his 4 mil salary could come in very handy in a TDL trade because its expiring (thus the drama around the Chriss signing).  Once we are over the cap, there was no downside to triggering the team option.  Had no effect on cap or anything else (just a roster spot, which turned out to be more valuable than would be expected).
