Trade & FA 2024-25:

[Mavs2021]

We are on a similar page here.  3/$100mm is what I was thinking also.  My thought is that the third year might be guaranteed for only $10-$20 million so that if he only plays two years, the salary is similar to $40/year, but the cap impact in those years is only $30/year.

Well that will certainly be a tester for this new found Kyrie sanity. 

Funny/sad sidenote is that with the new CBA Cuban would finally been able to successfully implement his bargain bin summer shopping approach. It seems the bargain bin has become much larger and of higher quality. Likely wouldn´t help Cuban with his expert eye for talent, but it seems a more valid strategy now. 

For example the Pistons gave Harris 52/2. Very stupid. That is not a desirable contract, unless you think you can use it for a bigger trade. Neverthelss if you split that into Luke Kennard, Tyus Jones and Precious Achiuwa you have three very good roleplayers that make your team better, but are also very valuable for contenders in a deadline trade.
