Philly send rebounding(Evans) bench scoring (Green) and a fresh start (Carney) to Orlando

Orlando sends cap Relief (Garrity & Dooling) young shooter ( JJ Reddick) to Philly

Sixers free up cap space by trading Evans and Green and Carney has been struggling and maybe he needs a fresh start on a new team..Dooling is a servable back-up point to take Greens spot and free up Young or Reddick to get some playing time..plus Reddick would benefit playing with Miller and AI who are penatrators and dishers..

Orlando gets some needed rebounding next to Howard and a guy who does not need to ball to be effective...Green would be a good scoring punch off the bench a Carney might beneift from a change of teams...

Toughts .... and like always be kind...LOL

Not sure why Orlando would give up two expirings for not much of an upgrade.

Dooling to Green is a wash, with Green holding the longer contract.

Evans is better than Garrity, but that's not saying much, and he also has a much longer contract.

Carney and Reddick are a wash at this point.

I think you would need to sweeten the pot for Orlando in order to make this deal go through.

Done for the Sixers even without Reddick.

Redick was good in college, when he was protected. But as a Pro, his total lack of athleticism has hurt him. Worst combine numbers in NBA history :-) He is not the equal of Carney, not close. Evans to is a good player cause he is the best per minute rebounder in the league, except maybe for Foster of Indy, and it's close. Green is 3 times as athletic, and a great scorer. Dooling is a injury waiting to happen. You can't rely on him. He has no future in Philly, and would be released as soon as the deal went down, so IF he is so valuable as the poster says, Orlando can just bring him right back. The deal does help Philly with Cap space. But the Immediate Talent helps Howard, and Orlando this year in the playoffs.

Sixers would be $20M under the cap and still have Miller.

cap space is what Philly is after and by geting rid of Evans and Green they are freeing up alot, which is why Garrity and Dooling are keys to the deal Reddicd would be icing to se if he can play or not and he is still on his rookie contract...orlando gets what they need to make a playoff push this year and help Howard on the boards and get another scorer to come off the bench and be a spark...i think it is win-win for both sides

As an ORL fan, I'd prefer to get Andre Miller in a deal like this and have some consistency at PG.
