Beasley to Utah?

Alan Hahn's latest tweet:
Miami is close 2 completing a 3-team deal 2 move Michael Beasley + get a trade exception

Locke's RT:
Has to be w/ Utah or team w cap space RT

 

[Chad Feldheimer]

Miami gets the Trade Exception
Unknown Team gets Beasley
Jazz get a wing or white stiff

 

[The Ghost of Blue Edwards]

What other NBA team has a trade exception other than Utah?

 

[David Stern]

Hopefully its us. You don't get the chance to acquire a number 2 pick every day for nothing.

 

[Zerol]

if it's a 3-team trade, then we won't be getting Beasley....

There have been rumors involving Miami + Toronto + Charlotte + Houston (obviously, this is 4 teams).

I'd be happy with Beasley and Millsap manning the 4 for the Jazz going into next season.

And, as I've posted before, those who think Beasley is more undersized than Boozer should take a look at how they both measured out (including athletically) at their respective pre-draft camps (I understand that Beas has yet to pan out as a rebounder or scorer in the NBA).

He would get a lot better playing with Dwill if he did come here.

Does Toronto, Charlotte, or Houston have a trade exception?

 

[Gyp Rosetti]

I want nothing to do with Beasley. Please let us get something else.

Edit: His numbers were a little better than I thought and if it's a for TPE, than why not I suppose.

I haven't been able to figure out why the Jazz don't have more interest in Beasley, but hopefully it was just the uncertainty around Boozer. Beasley's head is a risk, but it's not a big one, and it seems like almost dumb luck that he's available at so cheap a price. Just take the gift.

 

[The Ghost of Blue Edwards]

Jazz probably don't want a head case on the team, but I think they should take the risk. What do they have to lose at this point?

Meaning its either us or Orlando, right?

 

[mfree]

So if I read this right, Orlando and Utah are the only two teams with TPE big enough to use to acquire Beasley?

 

[Revolution 9]

Beasley has been a bust so far. I can't see him and Sloan working together either.

 

[GVC]

Or the trade could create a new TPE for Miami...

 

[David Stern]

How does a TPE combine with cap space for Miami?

Unless the team with the exception is within a certain percentage of Beasley's contract(75%) or have enough room under the cap.

They clear Beasley's salary and can use it to trade for player(s)

 

[enchilada_style]

He has a load of talent and the Jazz need talent. If he doesn't pan out for the Jazz its not like it would cripple the franchise Its worth the chance.
