Resigning Expiring Contracts after Trade
OK so in the new CBA... the Melo rule...not maintaining bird rights to offer Max deal if traded in the middle of the last contract year.What can a team offer the player at the end of the season? Does the player simply become a UFA? Does a team under the cap only have the cap to sign the player? Does a team over the cap only have the MLE and BAE? Are there no type of "bird rights" that they can offer the player a contract that of what other teams can offer...obviously not a Max deal ? I know this may be elementary but just never paid much attention after the key components of the CBA. THANKS

Re: Resigning Expiring Contracts after Trade
Never heard about that - or does this refer to the limitation of "extend and trade"s to 3 years instead of 4??
