Yea keep throwing guys into trades to make the money work, but it doesn’t work like that First, owls can’t make this trade because they are 6 guys over the 14 man roster, so they could either cut 6 (which no one does that mid season) or find a third trade partner which no one has enough roster spots to eat that many guys. And if a third does get involved to take on contracts, they need compensation. As well as vice versa lakers are 6 guys under the 14 man roster so they would have to scramble and find 6 fas on the minimum within like 48 hours.
This is mainly for big market fans like Dallas and lakers just because u add in like 5 scrubs to make the money works doesn’t many any team wants them. It helps when you’re making a trade to think why would the other team do it. And think about what’s a negative asset, a neutral asset (salary expiring contract usually), and a good assets.
no team is trading every single pick they have and learn what the Stephine rule is.
