I agree with that as well. No matter how I look at it, it seems like someone or some teams will get the short end of the stick and there's definitely no way to make everyone happy.

I'm just dumbfounded that this wasn't decided during the last CBA. There should have been a set rule that GM's could work with moving forward. Instead the league is going to be making rules on the fly and there will be people complaining no matter what.
