Won't actually change his 'take home'.
He has low base salaries and high roster bonuses. So a restructure still gives him the same paper at the same time, just pushes the money across 5 years instead of 1.
But don't forget that it compounds every time you do that.
I still say you only use it in cases of emergency or if there's a good ROI on it. So for instance, if pulling that trigger allows us to extend Sneed or Gay early and at a discount, then go ahead and get it done. You'll get it back on the back end when you're paying them less.
But if you're just robbing Peter to pay Paul so you can pay retail prices for guys - that's gonna eventually burn you. I don't love the idea.
