Love that Cuban is shit stirring again, but this article illustrates the larger point, from a Pistons perspective, cap room is good.

If you're the Lakers, would you rather amnesty Gasol (for example) and still have to pay him his salary, or would you rather send him to a team that can absorb him into cap space? They'd likely take a 2nd round pick and a huge TPE as the better route, right? They might even be willing to include a couple million in cash to help pay his salary.
