As for the deal itself--once you fill it out with enough contracts to make it work, of course--I think it's interesting in that it pretty much highlights the worst case scenario for all the other three teams. (Obviously, it works pretty well for Dallas.) You look at any one of those deals and say: yeah, they might have to take that. LA might have to take KG if they are going to deal Kobe. Minny might have to take Harris (or similar) if they have to deal Yi. Minny might have to take Howard and expirers if they have to deal KG.
Where it gets screwed up is to think that Minny could have Kobe instead of Howard and filler. It would make sense at all for them to take Howard and filler instead of Kobe. But then again, Kobe does have that no-trade clause, so it's feasible.
You can make ANY deal work under the cap, if you are willing to add enough pieces to it. This one looks awfully flimsy as a four-team deal. But again, it's intriguing because at least one of those teams is probably going to have to end up taking something like that.

This is what I got for a start:
Successful Scenario
Due to Dallas, Milwaukee, Minnesota and L.A. Lakers being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Dallas, Milwaukee, Minnesota and L.A. Lakers 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.
