How does the waiver clearing process work? Any chance we can get Delfino, Garcia, Brooks back?

I just had a thought about this that I wrote on the salary cap thread.

If we offer a second round pick to Lakers for a S&T for Dwight, do we aty over the cap and therefore keep our full $5m MLE?

The Lakers do it because they get a second round pick and a massive trade exception instead of Dwight walking for nothing.

We get the extra 2.5m difference between the full MLE and Room Exception and we get to retain Anderson and Ohlbrect.

Can anyone clarify?

Thought we had to be over the cap to have the MLE. Declining Garcia, waiving Brooks and Delfino put us under, did it not?

Ain't no shooting 3s anymore. It's all about that postgame baby!

What money can we even offer?

Garcia is a must.

Double teams in the post lead to 3's. Whether or not Howard's post game warrants a double team is a more interesting question.
