Is this about the desire for Ty Jones?
If so, I don't get it.
None of these ideas (unless I overlooked something) makes much of a difference in having the payroll to sign someone like T Jones.
If you give away Hardy, for example, you actually have LESS salary possible for Jones, since Hardy makes 2.0M but a minimum costs 2.1M. Powell only gives you an extra $1.9M in spending room. Exum nets about 1M. It's all nickels and dimes, unless you are trading (to WAS) someone who is making about what Tyus will be paid.
What I was hearing was that Mavs would like a guard making minimum salary. I'd love to have a 3rd string PG like him, but can't see him having interest, much less money to pay him
