ITEM 3
if I understand your point here, you have come to the wrong conclusion in applying what I said.
The Marks info is correct. If you do something in June that is a trigger for a hard cap, then that hard cap will continue to apply to the end of the following season (in this case, to June 30, 2025).
But there is no "both time frames" rule when a salary match is calculated. It simply is what it is, on that trade day. The reason "THJ/Maxi for Grant in 23/24" would require a >100% match for DAL (and for POR too, fwiw) is that in June, the Mavs outgoing salary total would be less than what they take back. THJ's salary credit applied (TPE) is not normal in a June trade because he's on a declining contract -- and it's a different number used for DAL than for POR.
The bolded info is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you!
