What are the exact details to this exception?
What the is a trade exemption if you cant use it?
If a team trades away a player with a higher salary than the player they acquire in return (we'll call this initial deal "Trade #1"), they receive what is called a Traded Player Exception, also known colloquially as a "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. This exception is particularly useful when teams trade draft picks straight-up for a player; since draft picks have no salary value, often the only way to get salaries to match is to use a trade exception, which allows trades to be made despite unbalanced salaries. It is also useful to compensate teams for losing free agents as they can do a sign and trade of that free agent to acquire a trade exception that can be used later. Note this exception is for single player trades only, though additional cash and draft picks can be part of the trade.
Ah okay.
Not sure if there are any opportunities to use it before the deadline. That would be interesting.
Couldn't be much.
Could Mahinmi plus the trade exception net a good wing?
Doubtfull.
Prob the moves to be made are done.
Unless Barry is waived and is brought back.
Can't combine the exception with a player.
Either the Spurs pick up a cheap player or let it expire, probably the latter.
Presti used a trade exception brilliantly. Got a trade exception with the sign-and-trade of Rashard Lewis (Orlando just kept on out-bidding themselves), parleyed that into a trade with Phoenix where they got 2 first-rounders and KT. Then trade KT for another 1st rounder from the Spurs.
So Presti took a player that he was gonna lose anyway (Lewis), and then through a series of trades got 3 first-round picks. Well done sir.
Is "Beno Trade Exception" a term of art like "Bird Rights?" Will Beno's career be forever immortalized through this term?
