Successful Scenario
Due to Dallas and Sacramento being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Dallas and Sacramento 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.

+++++
Not really sure WHY the Kings would do it other than to get rid of Artest and to gain the potential of Ager. It does reduce their salary by $3M.

Maybe if we kicked in a 1st? And Cuban's old standby: $3M?
