What happens if a Dallas lets Marion go on an amnesty cut and then resigns him for the minimum? He gets paid plus some more and they get lux. tax relief. Are they allowed to do this?
My choices would be among Danthay Jones, Mike Miller, Pietrus, Camby. Miller has been injured a bit lately and he has lost a bit of his shot I think but the others strike me as being "Casey types" and good defensive players.

I found it interesting that the article listed 10 teams as a "slam dunk" for using the amnesty. I'm not sure I agree with that. I think it will probably be less than that, but that's just IMO. I'd be okay with picking up another SF or a center. If Thabeet got amnestied and the raps were serious about playing Barg's at the four then having Thabeet on the bench wouldn't be a bad thing."They're going to have to rename the whole conference after us: Toronto Raptors 2014-2015 Northern Conference Champions" ~ ezzbee Dec. 2014

Picking up camby for a year or 2 as a place holder for Jonas Valanciunas aka junior varisty aka juvie aka juicey jo would also be acceptable. another pg or another sg is also an option if trades for jose and barbosa are planned."They're going to have to rename the whole conference after us: Toronto Raptors 2014-2015 Northern Conference Champions" ~ ezzbee Dec. 2014

I won't be surprised at all based on all the good press he's getting. I won't be surprised either if he doesn't do anything. I do wish he got a full camp with Casey...

Now is the time at Raptors Republic where we contrast:
NBA Owners Part I: We have no money! We are losing money! We need a system where we spend less money!
NBA Owners Part II: We need an amnesty clause where we can pay out an enormous, bad contract in full so we can have cap room to sign a replacement player to an equally bad contract! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
