A third team will likely be necessary because the Raptors cannot take on any additional salary from Dallas in order to maintain the cap room they've cleared to sign free agent Hedo Turkoglu to a five-year, $53 million contract. The Mavericks would be willing to move guard Jerry Stackhouse and his partially guaranteed contract; he is scheduled to make $7 million next season, but only $2 million of that is guaranteed, with Marion going to Dallas. But even that $2 million is too much for Toronto to take on and be able to sign Turkoglu. Hence, a third team is necessary. (Ironically, the Blazers, whom Turkoglu left at the altar last weekend, have $8 million in cap room, and could easily absorb a contract like Stackhouse's. It is hard to see Portland being very interested in helping Toronto, though, after all that has transpired in recent days.) Another option would be convincing one of the few teams with cap room, like Oklahoma City, into taking an expiring contract. But so far, the Thunder has been reluctant to get involved in many deals, choosing to stick to their long-developed plan to save room for the future, when they know they'll have to extend Kevin Durant, Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook. If trading falls through, Dallas's best hope may lie in convincing teams with existing trade exceptions to use them to absorb a contract. Several teams have large exceptions that will expire either later this month or early next year. But it's highly unlikely that most of them will be interested in using the exception, which would only get them closer to the luxury tax threshhold. The list above details the amount of the exception, the player that the team traded to help create the exception and the day the exception expires: Denver, for example, will almost certainly not use either of its trade exceptions. A source indicated Tuesday that the Raptors may be trying to create room to take Stackhouse's $2 million guaranteed salary by finding a home for forward Kris Humphries, who has two years and $6.1 million left on his contract. Humphries will make $2.9 million this coming season, and the Raptors would, in this scenario, trade him for cash (thought to be $3 million, the maximum allowed). They would also get $3 million from Dallas for taking Stackhouse, which would actually make the deal a profitable one for Toronto when they buy out or waive Stackhouse at the $2 million. Marion, one of the top small forwards in the league this decade, would be a significant upgrade to Dallas' rotation. The Mavs could move Josh Howard to shooting guard to make room for Marion. Shooting guard has been a hole in Dallas' lineup for years. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.138.153.22
