2020 NBA trade deadline discussion

Sorry, what?
I think he’s saying trade those three guys to Minnesota and not take back salary, then make another deal for Olynyk with the trade exception.

You could probably send Davis and Mudiay to Minnesota and then combine the TPE and TB for Olynyk.

TPE’s can’t be combined with anything. On top of that, each player counts for their own TPE that - again - cannot he combined. A player and their salary can only by absorbed by a TPE larger than the player’s salary, which means you don’t get the wiggle of taking back 125% of the outgoing salary.

In other words, the Jazz need to trade a package of players for another player if they want to get anyone making eight figures.
 
Seeing how Derrick Favors is playing for the Pels, the Jazz should have gotten more back in a trade for him. I get that they sent him where he wanted to go though.
yeah except i wish we didn't send him to NO... he is making NO a dangerous team right now that could beat anyone. and if they end up keeping him in the summer, they will be a problem next season.

Something like that... lots of cold medicine so things are foggy.

Making it a three team trade allows us to aggregate the three salaries going out... using Minny allows the heat to not have to create extra roster spots.
