What the hell is trade exception

Teams with a trade exception have up to a year in which they can acquire more salary in other trades (Trade #2, #3, etc.) than they send away, as long as the gulf in salaries for Trade #2, #3, etc. are less than or equal to the difference in salary for Trade #1.

Just puts the final question mark on what has been a mystery of an offseason already.  I just don't get it...  IMO, Troy shouldve been getting a lot more minutes than he was here anyway.  There aren't many guys in the league that can sit on a bench for 20+ mins and come out making threes like they've been in the whole game.  I would think that's an asset you'd want to keep...

And then all we get back is a trade exception?  Ridiculous.

I agree 100% - we should keep him to mold him into a starting SG or at least the 1st guy off the bench, like a JR Smith..

but you have to understand the front office mindset on him to see why this is a good move (in their eyes).. they see him as someone that is out of the regular rotation and not cemented in the 2nd unit.. he is expendable to Cho/Cliff.. ship him off for cap room - in my 'conspiracy theory' - it is to give Marvin extra $$$.. he took a pay cut so we could go after another big name, and when we didn't land who he thought we would land = he is upset about taking less and wants what he is due.. i have no idea why he hasn't signed yet like everyone else has.. it's weird when he was the one everyone knew he wasn't going anywhere and staying 'home'.. maybe he saw what happened to D.Wade and was like - "that ain't gon be me!!"

Cho knows he blew his load into getting this team in the playoffs after the Lance debacle. Now he's swinging for the fences next off-season by trying to save every dollar he can. Hopefully it doesn't backfire, but if the Hornets don't get in the playoffs.. let alone advance, he knows he's finished.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
