The difference between Toronto's 18th place finish and Indiana's 8th place finish is a five point differential in scoring. (which reflects both offence and defense). So essentially a 5% difference. By removing Bargs, and making incremental improvements, the Raps are in the playoffs, in this simplified example. Not that it is that simple, or that anyone is satisfied with 8th, but anytime you can improve your team and players, by spending money outside of the players salaries, why wouldn't you do it.
That hyper cooling treatment is one example. Alex McKechnie is another. Loading up on excellent assistants, scouts and analytics guys would also seem to be no brainers.
