    It's been widely speculated that the Mavericks will use the one-time amnesty provision to remove Haywood from the salary cap. But a rare clause in Haywood's contract could make that move unnecessary.

    Haywood has what one NBA executive called "the best spread provision in the NBA'' in his contract. In layman's terms, any team that waives Haywood can spread out the payments for the remainder of his contract until 2026, according to an NBA source.

    That means the team that owns his rights and waives him would be responsible for no more than $2 million per year over the next 14 years.

    But the fact that the $27.22 million that is guaranteed can be spread out over more than a decade, if a team so desires, is a huge advantage for a team looking for salary-cap protection if they also are looking for a functional center.

    What a great contract, not as good as Joe Johnson, but up there.

    Teams can't have cap space and the MLE in the same offseason. But yes, after trading Haywood and amnestying Marion, the Mavericks will be able to make some pretty ing awesome moves.

    Nothing relieves cap like a contract of 9mil for three years.

    a team like the heat could use haywood then just cut him after a year or 2. they are in bad need of a center and would actually benefit from having him.

    Who do you want from the Heat for Haywood?

    just late first rounder or a 2nd round pick...just want to get rid of him tbh we need cap space. if we get rid of haywood and amnesty marion, we can afford both dwight and deron.

    By getting rid of those 2, we will only be on the books for 24,411,020 next year, while the cap is expected to grow to between 60 and 61 million.

    That leaves us 35,588,980 to work with this offseason.

    Nobody in the league would trade for Haywood. That contract for that player is way worse than Jefferson's.

    If you trade Haywood you have to take back roughly equal value for him. That's how trades work. Unless a team under the cap want him. Which no team in the league would.

    Marion will be on the team unless you can trade him. For roughly equal values.

    Haywood will be amnestied.

    extend all expiring s to one more year and get a bargain from the FA market, mavs are still pretty compe ive imho. just wait another year and keep good financial flexibility for 13' summer in case DH becomes a free agent. deron ain't worth the max imho and you got jason kidd who can still play

    honestly the more i think about it the more i really don't want deron williams. i don't think he's worth the max at all tbh, i'd rather wait one more year and get cp3 if we have to max someone out, or just go with dwight plus a shooting guard and sign a role player as the pg
