Gravedigging, but it's worth noting that on Monday(9/22) Malcolm Thomas becomes eligible to be aggregated/included in trades with other players on the Cavs roster. So all three Jazz guys can be packaged for a player. Powell and Harris are both eligible as well now I think. Not sure when Alex Kirk and Chris Crawford become eligible to be traded(or if they ever had any restrictions on them to begin with)
Bottom line, with a little over a week to go before training camp begins, we may see some movement to add another player to the roster making up to the $5-6 million dollar range. Not sure they'll be a player of decent value out there, but they may just decide to turn the Utah contracts into a vet on an expiring contract who could have value at the trade deadline.
Also keep in mind that in 2011 Miami took a bought out Mike Bibby for the stretch run and the first year of the big 3 in Boston they added a few guys late in the year that were bought out(PJ Brown, Sam Cassell). Not ideal but something to consider as possible to probable after the trade deadline.
