Default RE:Potential savings if Fin is waived

Quote:
think once Finley is cut, he'll see some big name free agent and he won't be able to help himself. I can see him losing lots and lots of money because of this loophole.
All cubes can spend is the MLE on a FA, same as if we kept Fin. Cubes won't be able to spend more than the MLE on a FA until we're more than the MLE below the salary cap, and that won't be for years if then unless he does some more major slashing like letting Jet's and KVH's contracts expire and/or not resiging Dirk and Howard or such moves. There's no real sunny side to letting Fin go talent wise. We're losers talentwise if we do this. It's just Cuban being a cheapskate and not even a very smart cheapskate IMO.
