TPE's
This may be a stupid question, but how exactly do you create them? I have an idea but I'd like to know in greater detail.
Thanks!
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.

The basic premise is that if you send more out in trade than you receive back in a deal where you trade one player, you get a TPE back for the difference in that amount. For example: Team A trades Player 1 who makes $5,000,000.00 to Team B for Player 2 who makes $3,000,000.00, a TPE of $2,000,000.00 is created for Team A.
Where it can get complicated is when a deal looks like it is one deal, but actually structured as more than one smaller deal. Sometimes, it looks like a team sends an equal amount to what they get and a TPE is created. This is generally when the deals are broken down in to smaller deals. Sometimes this happens when teams are working around trade restrictions as well.
I recommend checking out the sections on Trades, TPEs, etc. in the CBA FAQ. Very informative, and just as important to me, easy to follow.
