If they use part of the R-MLE for Sterling and use the $5.38mm in space with another outgoing contract or two to get LM, doesn’t BYC go away?
"Base year" would be an issue for CHI, not Dallas, and CHI would not be using cap space. But if the other team has either a decent sized TPE or some cap space before to grease the deal, you can probably find a workaround (which is why I called it tricky when I noted it, but not a "deal-killer").
Not advocating this, but as you point out, Chicago has to be satisfied and Dallas has to get to a number LM wants for multi-years…especially if we are giving up items of value.
Maxi plus space gets LM to $14mm.
Is Maxi enough (he’s certainly a better fit in Chicago). Is $14mm enough? Maxi fits well here also. How about Powell plus Green plus room? That get’s LM to just north of $19mm.
Doesn't work. Base year, and cap space room error. It's tricky!
I probably do that…especially with Sterling taking minutes from Green.
Others like KM more than I do. To me, LM at $19M is bloated salary and he's lost all appeal. I'd be interested if he's fairly cheap both asset-wise (I consider Maxi a high price to pay) and also in salary.
