And that was part of it to, the move seemed ridiculous to me with Melo's status up in the air and no other major move on the horizon. If we had the talent and stability like the Rockets, I wouldn't have cared about the money but in our situation, it felt like we bought expensive rims to a car that we didn't have, which obviously wouldn't make any sense.
