Sixers trade: Miller, Carney, and Jason Smith
Sixers receive: Elton Brand

Clippers trade: Brand and Tim Thomas
Clippers receive: Arenas, Etan Thomas, Carney and Smith

Wizards trade: Arenas and Etan
Wizards receive: Miller and Tim Thomas

It works in the checker as is but the Wiz clearly need to get more. Not sure what we could tweak, though. We could get a pick from Philly but they're already essentially giving up two firsts. Maybe a pick swap?

Sixers want Brand to opt out of his contract & then they'll sign him to an extension. Pass on this trade.

They also want peace in the Middle East - doesn't mean it'll happen. The 6ers would be absolutely insane to pass on this.

no. your insane to think they woudl take it.

1. We only want brand if Miller stays
2. We only want brand if we can sign him to our own contract
3. We arnt willing to trade Jason Smith

Sixers are rebuilding, so why would we trade our young pf for an old one with health problems

Because the old one on 1 leg and half a kidney is still better than your power forward.

By the way, this trade stinks. A Wizards fan you are not.

Jason Smith is extremely under rated. I like brand alot, but I dont care if he has 3 legs, and 6 kidneys, he is too old for a rebuilding team.

They're rebuilding. Brand is 29, has played a zillion minutes & is coming off a serious injury. If he's healthy it would be OK. You also have to consider the amount of money that he is going to expect which could be a cap killer for most teams.
