    Mills alone would be enough, BTW; Marks alone would not.

    58min until the "deal is dead" Tweets start.

    Either that, or Chris Paul is traded to Charlotte for Augustin, Wallace, and some picks without any prior rumors.

    Can't combine a TE with a player in a trade.

    So, could it be that this is taking so long because we are working on a simultaneos trade?

    Trade exception has to match an entire players salary; can't be combined with a player or another exception.

    can't mix trade exceptions and players to make the CBA trade work

    picks don't count as money (value of $0) in trade calculations.

    Why doesn't Cho just use the TPE in the Wallace trade? ;)

    Both idiotic rules. I swear, the NBA (Stern) goes out of their (his) way to make trades difficult.

    You can't use a TE with another piece. Giving cash in the deal doesn't count toward the salary match.

    If you don't believe me, try it in ESPN's Trade Checker.

    since Crash makes 10.5M, we have to send back 8.3M in salary (125% + 100K) Joel's only 7.4053M. So we need to send out 894,700 in trade. Marks is only 799,500 in cap hit (though he makes 1.2M league vet min). Patty's cap hit is 937,500 and would work. E. Williams' is 1.255M and would work.

    No but it allows us to absorb more than we send out. Which is the exact situation we have here, is it not? Pryzbilla plus cash and ability to absorb more then we send out = deal done.

    I would much rather keep Armon around than Babbit. I think as far as 3rd strings go, Armon can have shining moments.

    Perhaps we're involving a third team to make the salaries work?

    So basically Dwight Jaynes is the only person saying this deal is close.

    Not holding my breath.
