How To Use Burks' TPE

As far a combination of most likely to occur, and what I'd value: I'd be all over DJ Wilson. We're losing Grayson, but can maybe recoup this by picking up someone we were interested in the prior draft.

And thanks for starting this thread! It's a useful thing nobody has been talking about.

Thanks man. If we keep Favors at $17+, we really will only have $4.7 million, minimum contracts, 2nd round picks and this trade exception. We have to maximize this.

OK, scratch the most likely to occur. I'd still quickly take him if an opportunity opened, but I don't think the Bucks are trying to get rid of his salary. It sounds like just Snell's and Ersan's.

Also Bird rights on our current players, at least the ones we don't have to rescind in order to get far enough under the cap to do the Conley trade.
 
A TPE only exists as long as the team is over the cap. I believe that when Rubio's contract (and Thabo et al) comes off the books on 1 July, we go under the cap, and this TPE vanishes. Also, we cant use the TPE before then if the incoming salary would keep us over the cap, as we can only make the Conley trade if we are under the cap.

Sure? You are right we need to be over the cap, but we get there with the Conley deal. Every TPE I've ever seen is date determined not cap/luxury determined.

Dang, looks like you are right. From the FAQ,

"A team's exceptions may be lost entirely, or the team may never receive them to begin with. This happens when their team salary is so low that when the exceptions are added to the team salary, the sum is still below the salary cap. If this happens when the exceptions arise on July 1, then the team doesn't get their exceptions at all. If the team salary ever drops below this level during the year, then the unused portions of any remaining exceptions are lost (and do not return if the team salary later increases)."
