You'd likely need a third team to facilitate the deal though.
Honestly, it'll probably be easier to wait until next summer...

I may be a little bit behind, but isn't Vince's deal fully guaranteed for now and next season since we passed the 6/30 deadline about buying him out?

Fully guaranteed for this year - next year is a team option.

It makes a lot of sense... I mean, we would be the only big market team that would still have the cap space. And he said numerous times he wouldn't mind playing here. Unfortunately, the Lakers pose a real danger to get him...

No, Vince is fully guaranteed next season. His contracts for this season and next season became fully guaranteed on 6/30.

So our team option for this season covered next season as well? I don't get it - is this specific to his contract, or is this some kind of rule that I don't know about? I thought the last season was optional...

It wasn't really a team option at all. His contract was simply partially guaranteed, with a date at which it became fully guaranteed. That date as passed.
We can still waive him and use the stretch provision to reduce his cap hit down to 1Mil next season if we want (as could any team we might trade him to).

Dammit, Thig - where were you last night when I was coming up with possible trade scenarios? And don't tell me you have a life outside this forum, because I don't buy it! I wasted a perfectly good beer trying to come up with a trade that could go down before December...
