Question for you….
Curry is reported as BAE, but it isn’t final yet. It fits under the TP MLE as well. Is the TP MLE a hard cap trigger?
What I’m thinking (possibly) is if the Mav’s don’t use the BAE, trade for a non-free agent (so not a S&T) and only use a 10% trade spread, can they exceed $172mm? I’m not saying it is likely. I’m just trying to think through all of the possibilities. Thanks
