    Delly, Pat, Legend, Plumlee and we all know Blake will find his way back to PDX. Always does. All-Time white gym rat with "great motor" team EVER! Add a little splash of weird-white-guy-that-doesn't-seem-to-fit-in-the-NBA Kaman and we're looking very vanilla delicious.

    Simply doing a sign-and-trade for Delly (+Haywood) would accomplish the same goal without being considered a CBA violation.

    Delly's salary would not decrease the trade exemption? For some reason I thought the difference between the
    two contracts was a factor.

    Yes, difference between contracts exchanged, but we wouldn't be sending any contracts. It would actually increase their trade exemption, since they would be sending us ~$14M in contracts and we would basically send them nothing.

    Oh yeah..... that was stupid on my part. Yes that makes it even more advantages for Cleveland.

    Speaking of Hitler, I've always been taught dont judge unless ye be judged, but the more I learn about that guy, the more I don't care for him.
