MLE's may be split: http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q25
Ultimately, the previous Summer will not be judged until the TPE expires or is used - I mentioned in March of last year that this would be a viable strategy for the Mavs to pursue (TPE + FULL MLE) over the summer, because I seriously doubted their ability to land a top level FA. When I was upset over the summer results it was due to 4 months of being told this was an asinine assertion - No Premier FA's, and a need to preserve the assets: NOW the other side of the shoes need to drop - I hate to say make a move to make a move, but there are about $16 million dollars worth of assets that will simply disintegrate in less than 5 days between Lee's contract and the usable balance of the TPE.
