Trade & FA 2024-25:

[KillerLeft]

This is why I raised the idea of Green to the TPE in Washington.  His salary in June fits, but it doesn’t in July.  So, this has to be done in two parts since THybulle can’t be traded here in June.

Portland has four picks in this draft and none in 2025.  Maybe it is THJ/protected 2025 for Thybulle/#34 (executed in July like we did a year ago) and you fill an open slot with the salary of that second rounder from Portland.

Like the way you're thinking, but don't like including 2025 in that deal. If they're interested in Hardaway at all, getting off of the Thybulle contract (for which they have Dallas to blame) has got to be at least part of the motivation, so I'm hopeful they can find a way to do the deal at a lower cost.
