The only guys that get their rookie scale options decline are Thabeet-type total stiffs.

yes. We can't gain anything and can only lose. Sub-zero is far worse than a replacement player like Gelabale.
Sub-zero: 5.9 PER, -0.038 WS/48 (negative! or sub-zero)
Gelabale: 10.5 PER, 0.62 WS/48
Wes Johnson: 9.5 PER, 0.21 WS/48
He's a historically terrible player.
