His contract would still count against the cap until his contract is over(I believe there's one year left on it after this year).

Screw a buyout. Sit his ass on the bench and trade him next year when someone wants a guy in the final year of his contract.

if snow accepts a buyout, the final year of his contract is off the books.
AV will still be in the same situation with the Cavs if he doesn't play this year. If he takes any sort of one year deal (pro-rated or not) he's an UFA next year.
edit: the final year of his contract still counts against the cap, but not the luxury tax. so, buying out snow would be stupid.

Can somebody explain to me why Boobie only takes 5 shots (and makes all 5) in 41 minutes? [censored].

Cavs waste triple-double from James
Thursday, November 15, 2007 3:59 AM

 Tony Dejak Associated Press
The Magic's Dwight Howard drives past the Cavaliers' Zydrunas Ilgauskas during the third quarter. Howard had a career-high 35 points and 16 rebounds.
CLEVELAND -- LeBron James heard the whistle and figured he was headed to the free throw line.
He got there. Just not to shoot.
Driving down the lane in the final seconds of overtime, James was tied up by Orlando's Hedo Turkoglu for a game-ending jump ball as the Magic, paced by Dwight Howard's 35 points and 16 rebounds, remained unbeaten on the road with a 117-116 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers last night.
Howard made two free throws with 5.8 seconds left in OT to put the Magic up by one. After a timeout, James, who finished with 39 points, 14 assists and 13 rebounds, took the inbounds pass at the top of the key and quickly drove past Keith Bogans.
Continued.....

I was just checking the box score to see what Hughes did. Pathetic. The fact that Brown let's this [censored] continue is a [censored]ing joke.
Glad I didn't watch it.
