Why would they? "Here, take our starting small forward and here's 3 mil to boot."
Think ducks.
The Nets would only use up 3.4 million in cap space in a deal like Bruno suggested. They would still have enough to max out LeBron.

I doubt New Jersey would want to commit 8 million a year on Jefferson, if they signed Bron. They already have Williams as a very capable back up.
They might not have to, but if the options for the Spurs are letting RJ walk for nothing, or throwing a little money at another team in order to get a crucial trade exception, they might choose the latter.
Jefferson and James plays the same spot. It's more realist Jefferson is their Plan B if James goes elsewhere
I like bruno's deal a lot, but i think Jay Z and Prokhorov efforts could very well pay off. So a deal with the knicks and D'Antoni is more probable in my eyes
They have money. FAs will go where the money is to get paid. This shouldn't be a hard concept to understand.
ofcourse I'm starting to like the trade exemption now, could go after a restricted FA like Josh Childress.
Or someone like Travis Outlaw who is young and still has a lot of upside.
What kind of shape do you think Bruce Bowen is in?
or use that TE on someone like Kyle Korver, Mike Miller.
Also another question, can a TE be split between 2 players? or only used on one?
Well, you can also add Gee and Temple to the trade to create a bigger TE but Spurs may want to keep some of Gee/Temple/Hairston/Jerrels.
You can also imagine a 3 way trade.
Spurs get Humphries + a SF + $3M for RJ + Hairston + Jerrells
Nets get RJ + Hairston + Jerrells fro Humphries + $3M
3rd team get TE for a SF.
Add picks to balance the trade.
In that scenario and with RJ starting salary at $6.6M, Spurs can get a SF paid $7.2M.
A TE can be split.
TimVP predicts quite well usually ( cf last Mavs playoff series ), what would you predict TIMVP ? A trade exception from the nets ? And what player could you see us get with it ?
And just a few days ago there were dreams of Rudy Gay....
wow RJ continues to piss off spurs fans....
A sign and trade for a trade exception is pretty much a best case scenario since opted out. I'd love to do it without taking Humphries, but if that's what the Nets want, Spurs gotta play ball to get that exception.
I actually like Humphries, seems like a spur
Who here would take on Curry's contract to get Chandler from the Knicks?
to get the other team to do a sign and trade think aggie think aggie
The only player I like from NJ is Damion James
not my the smarter spur fans
they knew he would be to much but not the max![]()
They can have all of those guys if they want them. Fine by me. D-leaguers are a dime a dozen.
The problem is that the Nets don't have a lot of player's under contract. So, this would all be dependent upon a guy like Humphries (for example) agreeing to a S&T because he doesn't think he could do better on the open market.
Terrence Williams isn't bad as a backup SF, has a decent contract and the Spurs could use the TE to find a starter.
I agree, although at 3M he becomes the 5th big and almost eliminates any chance of Bonner returning.
Humphries already picked up his option, he's under contract.
Humphries isn't a FA.
Nets are under the cap, they don't need to match salaries.
