ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

[Chicagojk]

I was not suggesting THJ outgoing just to turn the Brunson deal into SNT, but rather THJ-for-something as being able to make multiple teams happy.

Yes, a consequence of a SNT is usually a TPE but if you roll the use of the TPE into that same deal, it gets even better. One idea would be to route Burks to Dallas, for example, with the thinking that he is more of a 2-way player with a bit smaller contract, while DET - who has no money issues - gets THJ a better shooter and a bit bigger salary to pay.

And if you end with a TPE for later, if there are teams looking to shed a player here or there for one of the mega-trades being discussed, having a medium-to-large TPE can get you in the discussion of a place for someone to land. Joe Harris might be an example.

Thanks for the description.  I wasn't responding to you I just read some quick thoughts of Hardaway and just wanted to throw my opinion out.   I just feel like lets keep Tim unless it benefits us on the court.   We will see.
