    Trade exceptions are only generated when a team is above the cap.

    Yeah, I don't get it. Charlotte is trying to give him away. That dude can flat out play and has real all-star talent. For some reason teams are afraid of him. As much as I like Jason Terry I would package him and Capella if Charlotte would take that. Lance Stephenson is that second player that can create shots for other players, he is a defensive stud and can play multiple positions. When we play GS I would love to put him on Draymond Green.

    What do you guys think the chances are of absolutely nothing happening?

    Absolutely zero chance of nothing.

    Didn't they say the same thing when they were trying to move Asik last year?

    He tries to hard to live up to the All-Star tag everyone has labeled him as. The guy has talent but he still doesn't know how to play within the game. Too many one on ones without getting anyone else offensively involved.

    I doubt he gets traded. And if he does it won't be to us for a trade exception.

    Just because you have deals doesn't mean you take them. Eventually Morey got what he wanted. A lotto pick.

    True, but maybe he doesn't like any of the deals this year either.

    This year is a bit different. This deadline actually matters. Last year if the deadline passed, we still got to keep Asik. A valuable back up. This year we get nothing if the deadline passes.

    Keep in mind if we are using the TPE soon, we'd have to cut someone. Is Morey ready to dump Troy?

    He's a SG that can't shoot. DO NOT WANT.

    I agree with most of what you post.

    However I cannot agree with you on this one.

    Lin and Parsons constantly deviated from their defensive assignments and arbitrarily switched. While effort wasn't an issue, defensive IQ was. As a result the team was constantly out of position.

    A team can deal with a single player being out of whack, but cannot deal with 3 (Parsons/Lin/Harden).

    Nothing like a chemistry killing addition to change the team when they're rolling. Would totally be a Morey move

    Three of those players would kill Morey's treasured 2016 cap.
