Whether you want to couch that as avoiding the luxury tax this year, giving yourself more room under the first apron or just becoming more flexible for stuff at the deadline, to me it’s just good business.
If they can kill two birds by exchanging him for a player they like, great. But if I’m running this team I’m at least dumping him to a cap space team for one of those new 2nds, if that’s possible.
My biggest question with McGee is why did the Mavs get two second round picks in the Reggie/GWill trade and then later the spurs said they were looking for assets/picks for their remaining space. If it were easy to dump McGee why wouldn’t we just do it in the SA trade and they keep the picks.
Or is there a bigger trade where McGee’s money is needed?
