I may be wrong, but I think teams can't trade a player, and then trade back for him within a certain amount of time. I want to say it's not allowed if it's within the same season, but I'm not sure.
Regardless, I think any deal of that nature would very clearly constitute cap circumvention, and the League would never allow it to go through.
