Wonder if that is it for JJB? Just training camp and then step aside?
That would be MY preference because I don't want any of the guys we have to be put aside for him.
The more I think about it, the more I think that person (@"Mavs2019", maybe) who suggested this was a convenient and easy way to get JJB a "bonus" for his Mavs career makes sense.
I think it simply gives him the chance to feel like he had a shot, making it easier to swallow a transition to coaching, and the guaranteed salary (not aware of any rule that would prohibit the team from stacking a coaching salary on TOP of it) probably helps make him feel valued, too.
