NBA TRADE TALK: TDL over

[aguiar95]

Just a thought experiment....

This probably smacks of desperation, but DAL feels like it is starting to stagnate into a steaming pile of doggy doodoo.

I was listening to a couple guys talking about how HOU is not playing Wall (and should they be forced to). Started wondering how (not if) DAL could trade for Wall ($44.3MM) + FRP. 

In an ideal world, we could swap KP + ?, but I don't think that's happening. The next two salaries are DP and THJ, which a lot here are currently down on, and their salaries get you to $32.4MM. Add in Burke and you are at $35.5MM, just inside the 125% limit. It would take a huge issue off the table for HOU and give them three players a hell of a lot more tradeable than Wall. DAL gets Wall and a FRP in appreciation.

Wall is getting paid this season and next, so 2022-23 will be a huge salary to manage.

I'm sure some of our more knowledgeable contributors can knock the stuffing out of this, but I submit it for consideration.
(And I know this can't happen until after 12/15.)

I doubt very much that a rebuilding team like HOU would give up a 1st to dump one and a half year of Wall. The best we could do is:

THJ/Powell/Burke for Wall/Theis (TPE). Maaaaaaaaybe we can get a prospect that they are not interested in, but that's it.
