He ain’t a $6M player. But he’s the guy they have. It’s not like you move him out and suddenly you’re better because you aren’t spending $6M. To (a) move him and (b) get a $6M centre is pretty much impossible. And if you retain salary and get a different centre it better be one that’s better and for $3M, in order to break even on the deal.
