When Isiah takes back a lot of money the typical response is:
"It ain't your money"
When it seems that Isiah isn't willing to spend a few million after wasting hundreds of millions the response is:
"We shouldn't overpay. We should make him earn it."
Usually he has taken money back because he is trading up in talent and the only way for him to do that at times has been taking on salary.
Jackie B is a very different scenario.
If not for Isiah taking a chance on this kid- every other GM could have done the same before us- we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
I think Isiah has done well with these reclamation projects. Even though Demar is no longer on our roster, he is in the NBA and a marginal contributor.
