Successful Scenario
Due to Dallas, Boston, and Memphis being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Dallas, Boston, and Memphis had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Dallas does this to get something for finley. We get wright and la frentz. we can then go from there, we'll probably keep wright and try to trade la frentz or amnesty him.

Boston does this to rid themselves of 2 ugly contracts. They can only amnesty one player, but they have two horrible contracts, with this move they pretty much "amnestied" both players' contracts. They also get a promising project in the siberian bear.

Memphis wants to get rid of a disgruntled wright. They probably want to get a big man back in return for wright, and big men dont grow on trees. Wright and Blount produce nearly identical numbers and rebounding is the only issue.
