NEW LINEUPS:
Lakers:
PG: Fisher/Farmar
SG: Kobe/Navarro
SF: Odom/Walton
PF: Gasol/Turiaf
C: Bynum/Mihm

Magic:
PG: Miller/Nelson
SG: Bogans/Reddick
SF: Lewis/Evans
PF: Swift/Cook
C: Howard/Foyle

76ers:
PG: Crittendon/Arroyo
SG: Lou Williams/Green
SF: Thad Young/Carney
PF: Jason Smith/Evans
C: Dalembert/Randolph

Grizzlies:
PG: Conley/Lowry
SG: Iggy/Miller
SF: Gay/Miller
PF: Kwame/Cardinal
C: Darko/Battie

REASONS:
Lakers:
1) They go for the title sacrificing youth and a draft pick. When Bynum comes back, the Lakers could be the favs. to win it all.

Magic:
1) They get to use their expirings to find some immediate help to fend off the surging Wizards. Miller and Swift would be in the rotation right away. They could challenge Boston and Detroit with this move.

Memphis:
1) Iggy would be an excellent compliment next to Gay and Conley.
2) Gay is confirmed as the best player on the team.
3) They take on Battie's awful contract, but save some serious cash because Kwame expires.

Philly:
1) They get their PG of the future in Crittendon.
2) They tank for best possible draft pick.
3) They get serious cap room this summer because Miller is gone, and they don't have the cap hold to extend Iggy. They can Max Brand.
4) They exchange Miller and Iggy's cap holds for Crittendon's salary since everyone else expires.

Lakers get Gasol way too cheaply.
Orlando gets a fair deal, I assume they would do it.
Philly gets screwed. That's more than equal value for Miller, but adding Iggy on makes it ridiculously bad for them.
Not sure about the Grizz, b/c they would have to resign Iggy.

This is one of the worst trades I've seen that's included Iguodala. It's perilously close to being one of the worst trades I've seen that's included any Sixer. The way Miller's playing, he's worth close to a pick, Critt, and expirings by himself, IMO. What could possibly possess Ed Stefanski to throw in Iguodala, with the possible exception of the spirit of Kevin McHale?

[DiplomaticMagic]

Orl does. But Sixers WTF? They just give away Iggy

[sec-106]

This is one of the worst trades I've seen that's included Iguodala.

Amen to that.

[hermes]

not a good trade
but i'll take it as a laker fan

[IggyTheBEaST]

Sixers would Cut both Orlando AND L.A out. Even then, I wouldnt give BOTH Miller AND Igoudala for Gasol

[RoxFan08]

Wow. Philly gets strapped down and LA goes to work.

[1eyedjake]

Sixers get screwed over.

I like it for Orlando though.

[ITK9]

why don't you use you head
great offer,iggy and andre miller for critenton and a late first.you should be banned.for that offer you might get andre miller...

[AKBlazerFan]

Wow this is bad. I have always wondered if people posting trades took into consideration other teams, lol. I mean, this dude has got to be a Lakers fan. Look at the title. It had all big names except an LA big name, i knew right then this would be a doozy.

[memgrizzlies]

Were not giving up an All-Star (Pau) and a Rookie of the Year candidate (Navarro) for a Iggy and a bunch of no-namers.

[Teddy KGB]

wow if LA adds Bynum to Philly then they say yes otherwise no fkin way. and how the hell does LAL do so well?

[corwin]

Sixers award you the Gold Medal for the worst trade of all time.

[jefe]

Kwame, Critt, and a late first is nowhere near enough to land Gasol. Dream on Lakers fans.
