The value of having a lot of salary when making that big trade is that you can send out filler and picks and still keep your core (who a rebuilding team probably does not want anyways). Its a very similar path the Bucks took. We don't have a Middleton, but we do have more quality role players. I think we just need that number 2.We’re talking about taxpayer vs over the cap. I know there have been some avenues that have been stymied by fgump due to the rules regarding trades ehile over the cap this offseason.
I also know that if the taxpayer MLE is used the apron is a hardcap so there is no taking on extra salary in trade. Limitations to flexibility as I was talking about.
