players are disperesed between the 3 teams

If you are team A and receive team C type of dispersed values.... you get a double dose of 25% less of trade value... 56.25% of team A.... a lot less

and all legal...
You're still using .75(x) instead of .8(x)

In a 3 way deal, what each team sends out in total must match up with what they get back by the rule of the TPE.

If Team C is sending out $11.25, they can receive a maximum back of $14.1625 in salary.
If Team B is sending out $15, they can receive a maximum back of $18.85 in salary.

That equals an amount of $33.0125 maximum salaries take in so far for a total of $26.25 going out. The total amount going out in your example is $46.25 which is $13.2375 more than the maximum taken in.

Team A can't take in $13.2375 for sending out $20 because it violates the TPE. The key is this statement is Coon's faq

Quote:
As described in question number 67, exceptions are the mechanisms that allow teams to function above the salary cap. Any trade which results in the team ending up over the salary cap requires an exception. This is true even if the team is moving downward in salary. For example, if the salary cap is $50 million, a team has a team salary of $55 million, and they want to trade a $5 million player for a $4 million player, they still have to use an exception. Even though their team salary would be decreasing by $1 million, the fact that they would still be over the salary cap ($54 million) means that an exception is required.
