In total that would be a reduction of about 20M next season, but you might end up with having similar talent available on the roster. Is that realistic?
I'm not sure if it's realistic or not (you'd know better than I).
Maybe I need to get more familiar with Harris, but not re-signing him was kind of the point for me in the earlier scenario (which is why I was hoping for another smaller asset like a late first, second rounder or Moses Brown type).
But, if Harris is some sort of prize, maybe your idea is the way to go.
I, personally, think Powell is starting to look like an important part of this team again for the first time since the injury, and I'm quite content to simply keep him until his deal expires. So, I'm a little less keen to replace him with Lopez than you might be, but it would help with the tax issue, I suppose.
All in all, this is probably the way "salary dump" deals look. We haven't seen many of them around here over the years. I suppose the Richardson deal from this past summer applies, but it was much simpler. Seems like other teams make deals like yours fairly often.

Huh? I'm describing what he is? So, it does exist. It's him!
Maybe we're not understanding each other.
