Bob is right. Using his example. We "give" Al (or for a player/draft pick(s) if they are not under the cap enough) to Charlotte. Exellent point (I concur with Mylie).
I miss his Mbenga avatar (aw shucks).
Actually that's a whole different thing. Lets say we get Carroll and a pair of distant rd 2's. If Al is $4 mill more...we just got a new TPE,but the old one was irrelevant. Char was under cap..so no variant gets them a TPE...further...they can add salary up to the cap,and I don't know what that number is.
Bob's example better applies to a team over cap. I'm not certain a TPE is instant. However part 2 can be a day later if nessecery. In theory at least,we can do a small (under $10 mill) deal and structure it so both teams get a TPE good for a year. I don't know if there's an obscure rule against that. In that context we would not nessicerily be adding salary. We'd do a normal trade and the new TPE is a little bonus.
CENSORED... No comment.
