I went back and read through Stein's stuff the last month or so. Only two real Mav mentions from him. The Reggie for Reddish deal and confirming through his sources that THJ is indeed available for LeVert and it is really up to Cleveland to decide if they want to do it or not. Since I'm about to tie the two together, he also has written that NY would be willing to trade Rose if the deal "did right" by the former Thibs favorite.
It would be quite disruptive, but is there a world in which Reggie goes to NY and Tim goes to Cleveland. LeVert (CAA) ends up in NY and we get compensated with Reddish/Rose and at least one other contract from somebody. NY needs to send out about $2.5mm more in a Reggie/LeVert for Reddish/Rose deal. That is more than any of their smaller contracts for guys like Quickley, Grimes, McBride or Sims. Theoretically we could take two of those guys. NY could also send out someone making as much as Hartenstein and still save Dallas a dollar or two. Or, you could add Fournier and Bertans to the deal and make it large enough that the trade spread swallows the $2.5mm needs to send out.
Edit: Since Reddish only makes $5.9mm, he qualifies for 175% treatment in a deal for Bullock. So, the simple way to do something like this is to break it into two deals. Reggie for Reddish and then THJ/LeVert/Rose as a three way. Both stand on their own. Since Dallas is sending out the largest salary and bringing back the smallest in the three way, you can add any smallish salary you want and/or picks from NY. Obviously, Dallas would want more than just Reddish/Rose if they are sending out two 'starters'. So, I presume there would be more to it than just the base deals.
BTW, anyone else notice this offensive surge from Reggie corresponds to THJ being out?
