The main point of the trade is the cap-space it opens up at the end of the season rather than a clear talent upgrade.
Roy's deal is now expiring but D.Will (4.8) Ridnour (4) Barea (4.3) all have contracts running past this year that could be cleared in order to pay Pekovic & Budinger. If I had my way we'd clear Ridnour for sure. Sign Budinger then match/re-sign Pek.
