Long story short, base year compensation adds additional trade matching rules that are extremely difficult to meet without adding lots of additional salary and/or getting a 3rd team involved. And since Dallas will be well over the cap this summer with Luka's extension kicking in, BYC rules will apply to Brunson's deal. So a S&T is still possible, but more difficult than a typical trade.
But doesn't that really just mean that if the Mavs S&T Brunson they would only be able to take back 5/8 of his salary (+$100,000)? (And a minumum of (his salary minus $100,000) * 0.4 .)
If that is with New York that would be advantageous for the Mavs in terms of taking back less salary that they don't want (in addition to whatever picks were part of the trade)?
Or am I reading the cbafaq incorrectly?
