At the time the team was living hand to mouth. A Dodgers scenario (unable to make payroll) was not far fetched.

Not sure where you got your numbers, but yearly difference was $2million between Chandler and Okafor. Chandler's salary would have put the team in the luxury tax- why they tried to deal him to OKC for expirings. So Okafors contract saved another $2million.

The final savings were about $8million with luxury tax included.
