Do you think its viable? Basically they have agreed to take on the most horrendous of contracts on decent players as long as a top pick is attached.

I am going to argue that Baron Davis and (if they are lucky) 2 top 3 picks, and JJ Hickson will beat the snot out of us next season. They have numerous contracts that expire next season, and very feasibly can afford to do the same thing.

For a cold market team that is not a big city like Chicago, is using your cap essentially as a buffer to notch top draft picks (at least until you have ones worth keeping anyway) every year an idea. Trading your expiring every season for a decent way overpriced player with 1-2 years left on their deal and a first rounder. Roll it up and repeat it every season.
