I believe there is a rule that trades between two teams must be within
twenty percent of each other in terms of the salaries of the players being
swapped. Therefore it would be impossible to swap a 2.25 million guy for a
6.5 million guy.  Perhaps if the Nets through in another high priced player
then the deal would work but that would defeat the purpose of clearing up
cap space and besides how much do you think New Jersey is really going to
give up for Radja?
