Ideal and realistic are both entirely different concepts. But I will bite and try to go for my 'ideal,' realistic team.

S&T Wanamaker of about 8 million, with the 2nd or 3rd year non-guaranteed. (He does this, because he gets a lot of money upfront, plus he gets to stay in the NBA, and he'll also see plenty of minutes considering the lack of depth at the PG. Similar to how we did the Keith Bogans deal.)


My understanding is that a sign-and-traded player cannot be aggregated with other salaries in order to make a trade work financially.

I understood that too, but maybe I'm mistaken, but I read somewhere that a player that is tendered the Q/O with Early Bird Rights can be restructured as a new contract, and aggregated. If not, I may be mistaken. Regardless, I took that into account, and presumed Brown would sent out to cover salary purposes.

I don’t believe that provision is in the CBA.

Hrm.  I thought there were restrictions on how you could use a sign-and-traded player to make salaries work, to prevent teams without cap space to take advantage of free agents to make the trade money work.


Judging from some googling and some reddit posts, it looks like I'm not alone in thinking sign-and-traded players can't be combined with other players from the same team.  However, nobody can seem to find authority for that rule.  So I'm not sure where that idea originates.

4. Signed-and-traded players can be difficult to salary-match in trades.

There’s one scenario in which a sign-and-trade may genuinely make sense — if a free agent wants to join a team without cap room. However, even that scenario can’t necessarily be handled like a normal trade, since the Base Year Compensation (BYC) rule often applies.

The BYC rule applies to a specific circumstance. If a player is being signed-and-traded via Early Bird or Bird rights by a team above the salary cap, gets a raise of at least 20%, and his salary is worth more than the minimum, his cap figure for salary-matching purposes will be affected. For the team acquiring him, his full salary would apply in a trade. For the team trading him, he would count for his previous salary or 50% of his new salary, whichever is greater.

Yes, there are limitations.  There's the BYC rule.  Receiving a player in a sign-and-trade can result in a hard cap of the "apron".  Only players who were on a roster at the end of last season can be signed-and-traded. 

But, aggregation isn't a problem.  Under the old CBA this happened multiple times, and I don't think it has been abolished.

And you're right:  a lot of people think it's a rule.

I really don't know if I want Kyrie  back, but I figure the C's have to make the offer.  I sort of hope he leaves.  He was supposed to do what Kawhi is doing in the playofs, and for the most part he did vs Indiana, but came up short in a way that is unacceptable for a Max guy/super star/#1 scoring option.  One of those games maybe but 4 in a row, not acceptable at all.  Also, team chemistry is rally important and I think that what ever happens some players are going to have to go.

Kryie stays:
 
PG - Kyrie
SG - Brown
SF - Hayward
PF - Harford
C - AD

Bench
PG - FA
SG - FA
SF - Simi
PF - Morris
C - Banes

End of the bench towel swingers

Williams, Pick #20, Pick #22

I think the popular view is that Smart and Tatum go for AD.  I disagree that they will want all three of our first round picks though because with the #1 and our three that would add 4 rookies on guaranteed deals and I don't think they want that.  I see it as our #14 and next years Memphis pick.   Add Yabusele to make the money work and I think that's the trade.   I don't think they want Yabusele but he works. If we tried Williams and Semi instead trade machine say the trade still fails so we would still need another player and I really don't think NO wast to add a bunch of bench players. So, Tatum, Smart, Yabuselle, $14, and Mem pick.  I think Rozier is offered a nice deal and we don't match it, so he's gone.  With AD and Kyrie I think Banes and Morris exercise their player options, but I don't think that we bring back Theis and his minutes go to Williams.  But if Kyrie was an issue for Morris and with Smart gone, I could see  Morris opting out.  In which case Williams would take the PF spot on the second unit.  I think Banes really likes it here so I really can't see him opting out.

Kyrie goes but roll the dice anyway:

PG - Kemba Walker

My hope is that we can sign him as a FA and I think he will fit better into the team culture.  I think the rest of the roster stays the same but only with Walker switching places with Irving.

Just tossing around an idea/question.

But (Assuming player and team agree)

Couldn't something like Hayward and Rozier signed for a 1 year 20 mill dollar contract work in a deal for Beal and Mahinmi? (of course Boston would add some sort of pick in here)

Outgoing salary for Boston would be 51 million, incoming would be 41 million, and according to ESPN's trade checker those numbers make a legal trade.

I mean you, in this instance, would have the debate of if Hayward and 1 year of Rozier is worth Beal. I would argue yes as it gives them a pg for a year to replace the injured wall, Bet on Haywards recovery (they probably make playoffs in the East), and lines up massive expiring s over the next few seasons allowing for a bit of a rebuild on the fly.



but on to my thought of a deal to create my ideal team for next season.

NOP gets Mahinmi, Tatum, Smart, Memphis pick, Clipper pick, Boston 2021 first pick
gives: Davis, Moore. NOP adds a fat expiring deal they can move at deadline, adds a high value pick, and another pick this year as well as a future pick on top of an ALL NBA defensive SG/PG and a superstar potential in Tatum. Wing positions are set for a long time for them.

Washington gets Hayward, Sacramento pick, 2019 Boston second.
Gives, Beal, Mahinmi

Washington immediately saves 10 million in payroll. Bets on Haywards return to form and goes on a little mini tank next season until Wall comes back. Sacramento pick adds them another nice young cost controlled player this season.

Boston trades: Tatum, Smart, Hayward, all picks but Bostons own this year.

gets< Davis, Beal, Moore

This is why Boston does it.

Kyrie/MLE point guard Beverley/Wannamaker/
Beal/Moore/min player
Brown/Carter lle/Semi
Horford/Morris resigned/Dudly lle
Davis/Baynes/Williams

Our outgoing salary in that case will be 41 million, as Rozier's outgoing salary will only count as half the salary he will actually earn. Also I believe that S&Ts have to be at least 3 year deals, as pointed out by Csfan1984. And btw Washington will not sell Beal for that type of pu pu platter lol, we'll probably have to attach multiple first round picks for such a deal to be done.
