I did not know this (as I mentioned, I didn't check the numbers on any of this), and if you addressed it elsewhere, I missed it. But ...
1 MIA wouldn't be allowed to S&T for Kyrie or anyone with a payroll in that vicinity. They have to land below ~$170M (the apron) with a hard cap at that number for the entire roster.
2 At the same time, if you're offloading salary from MIA to DAL, you potentially create insurmountable problems in the Mavs payroll.
3 That may all be solved within the trade as you've outlined. If so, never mind!
