...why we don't simply renounce rights to, and eliminate cap holds on:

Brian Cardinal
Damien Wilkins
Nathan Jawai
Sasha Pavlovic
Oleksiy Pecherov

Or, better still:

Latrell Sprewell
Kirk Snyder
Michael Doleac
Sam Jacobsen
Oliver Miller
Sam Mitchell
Andrae Patterson
Bracey Wright

What's the disadvantage of doing so?

Because there's no reason to until we want to sign a free agent.

Thanks. Guess it's simply a matter of timing, as cap holds technically affect available cap space but, practically speaking, not until a signing or trade actually occurs. Just seems odd that players like Oliver Miller and Sam Jacobson are still on the books.
