Yeah, it was money they had to spend and were able to do so on a player that fits and a contract that fits their long term plan.There were not any other players that fit what they were looking for in free agency this year better than iHart. Any other player they want would have to be acquired by trade which would involve salary matching anyway... What's the issue?

You’re right. And if OKC ever wants to trade for a disgruntled star, guess whose salary would help them match salary in a trade? There’s a ton or reasons why overpaying here makes a lot of sense.
