This trade could not have been better for Miami.

 The Heat will save $15.4 million in luxury tax on the trade and create a $6.4 million trade exception.

So we can do more. Besides getting a younger guy who's getting 23/night for $4M less than we were paying Kyle, we save significant money on the cap, to do more, and get a trade exception. To do more. It's unbelievable to me that Charlotte made this trade. For a lotto-protected 2027 pick? They have to be looking to flip Kyle. This is a cardinal example of why the Bobcats are the Bobcats.
