Does Brunson's departure have to be a SnT to generate a TPE? I feel like it does, but I'm not an expert.
If this is the case, does the Tax Apron limitation kick in for NYKs? I'm just trying to see if there is any small value to extract from this deal and a TPE seems like the cheapest return, other than air. But if the apron thing kicks in, then NYKs would be incentivized to NOT do a SnT, at least to my logic.
Please help.
The "reasons why" are various, depending on what NY wants to do next ... but a SNT would be to NY's advantage (with no downside). Making it happen should be an easy cooperative move for all 3 teams. If the Mavs can't see how, or know how to sell it (not that they should have to), or know how to use it, they are way worse than I thought possible.
I would expect this is in the "done deal" part of what's going on, essentially --- but don't have complete confidence in these guys at all, when they keep getting pantsed. We'll see.
