That is all nice but not relevant. Players come and go for all teams all the time so you play with whomever. You don't keep MJ because he is buds with Dunlap.
MJ has value, no one disputes that, but he is not worth the amount we are paying him. If a younger guy can perform close to him and has more upside for 1/3rd or less of the cost it is a no-brainer.
