According to Adrian Wojnarowski we got a $9.7 million trade exception out of the deal. You can't package trade exceptions together or with a player meaning we can't use it to get Iggy or Melo, but I came up with a list of potential SFs and Bigs that have the right size contract and are on teams that might be in a dumping mood in February.

Marvin Williams SF $6.7
Boris Diaw PF $9
Stephen Jackson SG $8.45
Nazr Mohammed C $6.9
Desagana Diop $6.5
Anderson Varejao $7
Birdman $3.9
Chris Wilcox $3
Andris Biedrins $9
Dan Gadzuric $7.2
Shane Battier $7.3
Jared Jeffries $6.9
Jeff Foster $6.6
Hasheem Thabeet $4.8
Ronny Turiaf $4

Can't you just swing 2 seperate trades? For example, trade the exception for Jeffries and then in a seperate trade throw in Jeffries to match salaries?

I'd have to look at the length of some of the contracts. Varejao would easily make us a true title contender, but Cleveland isn't giving him up for a TPE.

Would love to get Williams, Nazr, Thabeet.

Atthehive is saying we are only getting a 2 mill TPE. Anyone know the truth.

Just grab whoever fits position of biggest need for now and hold on to them until the deadline (and then package all the expirings together for a big name trade).

Yeah Varejao would make this team something special, by there is no way that would ever happen without giving up a major piece of our team.

Jackson would be cool if he could behave; however, he wants a nice extension too.

Mohammed is the one I like too, but haven't looked at the numbers to see.

Varajo would be good. We could use a goon in the paint.

I've always liked Steven Jackson but the crack here would kill him.

I really like Thabeet, he really is just a taller and younger Mbenga with more potential.

Thabeet is an elite shot blocker with great size. Would provide a great backup C option with his defense. No idea if Memphis has already given up on him or not
