We can use the trade exception, min salary, room, veteran, and rookie exceptions.
So we could trade Lopez for a 2nd and get a ~$5.5m trade exception, sign CP3 and get against the cap, then use the trade exception for a similarly price player to go over? Trade exceptions can't be packaged with another player, right?

Well, not exactly, I've got to work the numbers (I really don't think Chris is coming here, by the way), but it'd all have to be coordinated in advance.
Lopez is nonguaranteed. Drop him. Sign Chris with cap space or threaten to do it and send something to LA to get Chris back here, which is ok since we're under the cap and shipping out enough (in this) to make it all work. Then we can use the exception for trades (not the leftover bits in nonsimultaneous deals) to grow the roster like when they added Lopez.
Remember, you just have to be able to sign the FA in one scenario to force a trade. This is what the Heat did (twice).
