Cap space as an entity is an asset, but the extent to which you are willing to use it ultimately determines its value. Renting out cap space as an asset-building tool has netted the 76ers two first round picks, three first round pick swaps, and countless second round picks since the 2013 Draft, not including players traded for (so not counting Nik Stauskas, for instance). It's an unprecedented, astounding use of cap space never done before on such a wide scale.
