opting out until he suddenly found another team who could offer him something.

Other teams offered Maggette MLE because that's all they had, not because he was worth only that.

The team's new found cap room was not going to be used on a great player because there were none left who were not going to be matched by their current teams. Therefore, they decided to split the cap room on good value players.
