IIRC, his salary, at least the amount that Portland would have applied to their cap is the vet minimum of around 1.6M (the scale for a vet with 2 years experience). Faried would make more, but the NBA would pick up the difference in scale...his salary would be pro-rated according to the games left in the season, but I think the tax would be 1.62M X 58/82 X 2.5. So then somewhere in 4M range for tax and salary. I might be off i that somewhere
All right, there's a reason he WASN'T on an NBA roster. Maybe not 4.4m of them, but they include: "he sucks at everything except rebounding" and "he's got a bad attitude".
