2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

Interesting.  That is not a bad number.   Instead of picking up an extra year of Powell, they can either try to move Reddick (does any of the teams in the East have an TPE near this range?) or a buyout would be easier at this range.  Maybe Reddick makes a million or two, and then signs with someone else at the minimum during the season.   Could Dallas even throw in cash in the trade as well?    Not sure any of this is possible and there is some complexity, but if I was Toronto I would probably prefer this avenue over taking on around 10 million of Powell for two years.

I like your idea and don’t think it’s getting enough attention. Maybe cause the board is dead right now. At least DS seemed to take you seriously.

I know one answer to your question is Brooklyn, which is Reddick’s preferred destination. They have an 11.5 million exception from the Dinwidde deal:

I have always believed the Mavs signed him last year with an eye to getting an asset out of his inevitable, eventual move to the Nets. Rules implicating the hard cap have thwarted, so far, any of my ideas for making that happen. But perhaps sending him to Toronto for a short stint would allow the Nets to avoid that. I dunno.
