benning changes his mind every couple of months. i remember when he talked about teams in cap trouble and how he could take advantage of that, but didn't get teravainen/bickell and is now saying he wouldn't take on a contract like datsyuk's because they want to be competitive lol.
i dont think any team will eat datysuks whole ticket @ 7.5 but they could retain 40% making it a 4.5 caphit and trade it for a 2nd round pick i would definitely eat that if i was JB.
Jim Benning, 2014: "We believe the core group of veterans here can be part of a quick turnaround."
Jim Benning, 2016: "We knew this would be a long, hard process from day 1. There are no shortcuts. Previous regime left us with bad vets with bad contracts."
