[HeatGM]

Heat sends:

Gregory Holman

for

Bucks sends:

Jamal Sampson

i agree to this trade....

[BucksGM]

I agree.  I get basically the same player at a cheap contract and retain 8-9 million to spend in FA this year.

[HeatGM]

i need sampson's expiring contract to boost my salary cap space to 15 mil... although holman is a solid backup player....

[NetsGM]

Sorry guys.

Jamal Sampson = 1.2 million
Gregory Holman = 1.763529 million

the heat are the ones with cap room, but the bucks are the ones who need to be able to absorb salary.

trade doesn't work.

[CelticsGM]

[NetsGM]

Yup, deal is dead.

[BucksGM]
