If you cut LaVar, that is causing more cap trouble. they are going to have to take the roster bonus due in July and make it guaranteed money, spread it over the contract and deal with it. if you cut him, yeah you save that 6.5 mil, but you are hit with something like 12 or 13 mil next year. and with the CBA in doubt, and if its not extended then the money cant carry over to the following year, it is all on the last year before the CBA is expired. You dont want to cut the guy, not just for financial reasons, but he is a player, leader, and great team mate. plus, I have a #56 jersey, I dont want to have to buy another one. maybe I can just put somebody elses name on it!
