Trade Idea
I thought yesterdays draft was a very successful draft to say the least. Anthony Randolph looks to be a real offensive force, and is has high defensive potential. He's just an all around great player. Richard Hendrix also looks good, but you never know how a second rounder could turn out. Although Hendrix is a pretty solid low-post guy in terms of creating offense, get rebounds, and playing goood defense. But that is at the college level, and we are in trouble if we want this guy to be our guy down low. Even though Beans is pretty good, I think we need to bring in another guy, along with Beans. So taking a big bold move for a guy in his mid 20s who can be a real force when healthy, here is the trade:

Trade exemption does not mean...
that Dalembert’s salary will only be on the books for the amount over the $10 mil. And the TPE can’t be combined w/ another player in a trade. As for the trade in itself… I don’t think it would work numbers wise. The salaries would need to be w/in a certain % because the warriors are over the salary cap.

Dalembert
would be helpful for the Warriors but as MMN stated, players can’t be combined with the TPE. It could be utilized as part of a larger trade (two separate trades)
hypothetically speaking, if we were to really trade for Elton Brand LAST YEAR, we’d use it to take back some bad contracts because the Clippers would not trade Brand to us as intra-division rivals without having to pay a higher price than most other teams:
2007
Trade 1
Elton Brand (15mm) for Al Harrington (9mm), Mikael Pietrus (4mm) Marco Belinelli (1.5mm), Future Protected 1st
Trade 2
Trade Exception (9.9mm) for Cuttino Mobley (9mm)
The player we absorb using the trade exception would have to have a salary no more than the amount of the exception itself.
Sam would be a good fit in G.S., but I think he’s a bit overpaid ($34mm over the next 3- yikes) Dalembert wouldn’t be the player we go over the luxury tax threshold for. (Another couple million and we have a Brand, Marion )

Props for the idea
even if it doesn’t work out.
Please if anyone proposes a trade, check out the rules for any part that you wish to use. Useful info on the TPE and salary cap can be seen here:

Chicago or Indiana
Chicago could unload a point guard, as could indiana. Ben Gordon’s salary isn’t huge, but i doubt they would want to trade him. Hinrich’s salary on the other hand is pretty big.
Tinsley could be doable with Indiana.

yo we could....
pull out the elton Brands if we package Al harrington, Brandon Wright, baby rocky, and future number 1 pick. it sound crazy but it might works.

Even though Elgin Baylor is clueless, I don’t think he’s dumb enough to trade Brand to the Warriors. Strangers things have happened though.
