No MLE. Zack Lowe described it well recently:
A team cannot get under the cap, use cap space to sign outside free agents, and then use the full midlevel exception. The full midlevel is only for teams that start and stay over the cap
In fact, we don't have any cap room for Carter if this goes through, so I think our only chance at Vince is if he took the room exception (I think $2.7MM?).
Plus still no real backup center, still no backup 4, and still Felton as the starting PG.
