    For outgoing purposes, only the guarantee portion counts for us. For the receiving team, his entire $19M counts towards the cap. However, we can adjust the partial guarantee and give him more money like ATL/SAS did and then they can cut him and save that money. So for salary purposes we could bump his guarantee to $7M to allow to receive a bigger salary back and then the team could cut him and save $12M from my understanding.

    You need a nice big pick-up truck for work. Used car prices are crazy. Do just buy an older smaller one and say the newer one "wasn't worth it?"

    My boy Drew "Bob" Eubanks is returning too. He's developing nicely.

    Rules Question:

    Theoretically, since the Grant deal isn’t finalized … can the Blazers fit him under the TPE and then simultaneously trade him elsewhere? [alone or in a package]

    IIRC, in a trade including Bledsoe rather than the TPE, he could be moved in a simultaneous trade in a package.

    [Thanks, in advance, for the CBA knowledge.]

    Only point would be to get the 3.9M guarantee off our books, possibly allowing us to take on a little more salary in a future deadline deal.

    not worth the pick or whatever we'll have to send them back in addition. i don't trust Cronin for deals to give us "flexibility. "

    You won't have to give up a pick to get rid of Bledsoes contract...the difficulty is making math work in a trade. Beyond that the team receiving him can cut him and only have to pay guaranteed $$.
