The Nets traded for Wallace last March, giving up a first-round pick which would become rookie sensation Damian Lillard. The Nets claimed the move would "balance the roster... and [allow them to] still have cap flexibility."

In the off-season, Wallace signed a contract for four years and $40 million. Damian Lillard makes $6.27 million over two years. So there's Billy King's definition of "cap flexibility."
And despite that huge contract, Gerald Wallace is having a terrible season. He's shooting 27% from the field in March, which is abysmal. Like, "Maybe it's time to go play in Europe" bad.
