Successful Scenario Due to Houston, Indiana, and L.A. Lakers being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Houston, Indiana, and L.A. Lakers had to be no more than 125% 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. before everyone flips out look at the big picture 1st- we empty are backcourt 2nd-we solidfy or front court Ming/Mutombo Diogu/Radmanovich/Hayes Mcgrady/Novak Wells/Synder James/Tinsley/Brooks we can then add another wing player or another frontcourt player with the MLE... The pacers already said they would do the deal if they got Odom and Bynum LA will do it to satisfy Bryant Lakers: O'neil Brown Battier Bryant Parker Pacers: Bynum/Foster Odom/Murphy Granger/Dunleavy Daniels/Head Alston/Armstrong
