From ESPN Chris Sheridan "Charlotte Bobcats basketball operations chief Michael Jordan, and he could be a major power broker in the Iverson trade saga because he's the one guy in the entire NBA who can make just about any deal happen by brokering a three- or four-team trade. Iverson wouldn't end up in Charlotte, mind you (and if you believe everything you read, he doesn't want to play there, either), but would be traded through the Bobcats to someone else. Here's how: In most NBA trades, the salaries of the players being traded for one another must be within 125 percent of each other, plus $100,000. But if one of the teams in the deal is under the salary cap, that rule goes out the window, and the salaries no longer have to "match." In this case, the Bobcats currently have a payroll of $37.77 million, leaving them about $14.4 million below the salary cap of $53.135 million. In other words, they have $14.4 million in cap space. So in order to take on Iverson's $17.2 million salary, they'd have to move $2.8 million worth of salary -- and Jordan could do that by including Brevin Knight ($4.4 million) or Melvin Ely ($3.3 million, trade-eligible Jan. 2) in a three- or four-team deal." So we need to talk to them about what they want pretty much
