It would probably need to involve a third team, but that would open up plenty of minutes for Dragic (and some of the other small wings) and greatly alleviate tax concerns while signing DFS and Brunson.
Am I right, if we traded for Dragic we could re-sign him and not use the MLE? But if he is bought out, then the only way to resign him is via the MLE?
I would imagine if he did wind up here, it would not just be for the remaining part of the year. He is probably looking for something longer. So if you could trade for him, couldn't you use the MLE for a guy like Batum or someone else in that price range? You could probably get both for close to the Hardaway salary next year.
