TRADE ACCEPTED Due to Minnesota and Philadelphia being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. Minnesota and Philadelphia had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement
If we were just focusing on this year, I would probably do that. Although it does seem a bit lopsided. But anyway, if we are going to make trades this season we have to make them work for the future. We have to get young guys that can run with Garnett, and get rid of the wretched attitudes on our team.
