how did they get the salaries to match?
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

Even Morey can't make $8.3m within range of $12.4m

Alan Williams makes the team? Bev probably regrets staying now.

Failed Trade Scenario
Sorry, but this trade does not work
Due to Houston being over the cap and having a post-trade Team Salary over the Tax Threshold, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Houston could not receive more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did not happen here.
Due to Denver being under the cap and choosing to invoke the Cap Room rule, Denver could not go over the cap by more than $100,000 of post-trade Team Salary, which did happen here. Also, Denver met the requirements of the Hard Cap rules of staying under the Tax Threshold plus $4M for adjusted post-trade Team Salary.
This trade failed to meet the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Is the trade-checker updated with all of the new financial information that was sorted out during the moratorium period?

ESPN number is not the same as Hoopshype so i don't know

Houston will send Kostas Papanikolaou, Pablo Prigioni, Joey Dorsey, Nick Johnson and a protected 2016 first-round draft pick to Denver, sources said. Along with Lawson, the Nuggets will send a 2017 second-round pick to Houston.


Rockets first round pick is lottery protected
Nuggets second round pick is not protected

Morey kept Lawsons cup full and had Tim Connelly's blunts rolled. Morey is a beast.

wow, so cool... almost lose nothing to get a borderline all-star guard, Morey is a genius again...so excited about the coming season...I hope Pat will still start, Lawson plays the 6th man role like what Jeremy did... Hope coach McHale has the gut to do this...
I don't like the back court of Harden and Lawson defensively...

Rooting for Ty off the court - he's got some demons I hope he addresses head on. Low risk move for Houston. Should be fun to watch.

Best of luck to you all.
