I understand, but the problem was they didn't "just get rid of him" they kept half of his contract too and got pretty much nothing in return.

Maybe that's the only way they could have gotten rid of him, but it shows just how terrible the contract was. But I have my reservations, injury aside, that's a pretty big fall to go from a consistent 20-25 player who was being traded for 1st round picks to having no team want you unless being paid 2.2M.
