The Regime Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Danny Ainge is trying to use Rasheed Wallace’s contract in trade talks, a move that would allow the Celtics to retain their midlevel exception, league sources said. Wallace has yet to file retirement papers, so the $6.32 million owed him next season and $6.79 million in 2011-12 would come off a team’s books after Wallace is traded to them. http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/67653/20100701/celtics_trying_to_shop_rasheed_in_attempt_to_keep_mle/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted July 1, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 That doesn't make sense. Teams receive MLE's to spend when they are over the cap. Just because Boston knocks $6 million off of their payroll doesn't mean they can spend that money like it's the MLE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
