If you use the 22/23 salary plus the TK, it would be more like $23.65 to match.
2 Would the TK be paid in the current season or the PO season if the trade is done in June?
3 I assume Green could forego a piece of the TK if it makes the matching easier. For instance, if the TK is $3.8mm and it puts a logical trade $300k out of being legal, can he take a $3.5mm TK?
Thanks
1 I think you're probably right. TK's have weird rules, and so do after-season trades sometimes. I did use future salary and probably shouldn't have (but too lazy to look it up).
Suffice it to say that if 2022-23 salary gets used w TK, the diff between June and July in what GS has to take becomes an even wider gap, and GS has been paying tax at a multiplier of 5-6x.
2 The entire TK would be paid in June, if done in June, and would be paid by GS.
3 Any part of TK can be waived for any reason (or for no reason).
