Fantasy Trade Thread

Vince's 16m expiring is huge, Gortat is a blue-collar rebounder that many of you say you need, Pietrus is a poor mans Iggy, and Jameer is a hometown kid who can score......so don't tell me we don't have valuable assets. Even if you downplay those assets like you are doing, we could always include a 3rd team

Gortat is the only player I like in the deal. Pietrus is all yours, . The ist round pick at 27 or 28 would not even make the 76ers next year. A 3 corner transaction is possible if the 76ers get Gibson, Gortat and the Bulls ist round pick. This way the 76ers would get Gortat, Gibson and the Bulls ist round pick and you can make your trade whomever you want to send to the Bulls. I can live with Gortat, Gibson and the Bulls ist round pick. That should close some of the bleeding in Philadelphia.

How about Kirilenko + 13M trade exception (from Boozer sign-and-trade) for Iguodala and getting rid of Brand?

Iggy would be great alongside Deron even if that means having a declining Brand back up Millsap.

You guys clear about $12M this season and a lot the next 3-4 years, including $30M for next season alone.

No thanks!

Felton signing with the Knicks got me thinking...


Lou Williams for Nazr Mohammed + 2011 2nd.

- We get rid of Lou's contract
- We get a serviceable big with an expiring
- Lou could challenge for CHA's starting PG spot

That is grammatically correct. Separate the laughing smiley face with a comma. Take note of that people. That is how you properly use a laughing smiley face.

That Iggy to Jazz trade is interesting, but I'm going back and forth on trading Iggy with Brand. I think I would rather trade Iggy by himself (more value) for a young player and keep Brand as a vet locker room guy and huge expiring contract in two years.

As to the AK+trade exception for Iggy+Brand trade idea, you can absolutely keep Brand if you want.

How about Iguodala and a lottery-protected pick for our Boozer trade exception?

You missed his point. He's saying he doesn't want to take a below market value return for Iguodala just because he's attached to Brand, which I understand the thinking and sort of agree with.

Igoudala for nothing is not something we would even think about. Iguodala and Brand for nothing? Sure thing. But we're not giving him away by any means. The original offer you made is 100x more enticing than this.

It's like us countering your AK + TPE for Iggy + Brand by saying: "We want to keep Iguodala, but you can have Brand for AK."

[Arsenal]

I would do that original Jazz deal.

Iguodala + Brand for Kirilenko would really set the Sixers up next offseason with a ton of cap space, no bad contracts (Nocioni will be an expiring then), another high lottery pick, and a talented young core who will get more playing time this season. Of course, the Sixers would probably rather keep Iguodala and Brand, win 40+ games, and sneak into the playoffs as a low seed even though the team will have no shot at winning anything, instead of going all the way and rebuilding Oklahoma City style.

We would have to do that Jazz deal. But if it was offered I'm sure Ed would say no. If we make any more moves this summer I think we have to trade Lou for a 1st round pick. That would allow ET to play some point and allow Meeks to get significant minutes so he can show what he can do.

[sem3376]

If we are trading iggy to the jazz brand goes with him. I would love that trade. Just them 2 for ak 47 and trade exception. Although I do believe turner and iggy complement each other very well and there game aren't similar at all if you actually watch bball or know the game I would trade him because to me we need cap space and another bad year next year so we can get another high lottery pick to team with are young backcourt. I personally love the ok city model and want to blow it up asap and go young with high picks. Eventually get lucky and grab are durant,duncan,wade and go from there with something we can sustain. I wouldn't put any pressure on collins to win now but to teach and see some improvement with the players. I am looking to be patient and go young not patch holes and stay in the middle of the pack forever! We have been doing this since 2001 and look where it has gotten us? Nowhere. If young guys don't wanna sign for reasonable price let them walk and don't bid aganst are selves when a guy is restricted all ythe dumb **** we do time and time again that eats up cap space for NOOOOOO reason. Go young be patient and build it up over a 5 year plan. The heat are gonna win for the next 5 to 7 years anyway so now is as good a time as ever to be patoent and develop the young guys. 2nd place in the east is no better then last place in the east, as a matter of fact I'd rather be last at least u get the high draft pick for it. Its about titles to me and if you aren't winning them you are a loser like the other 30 teams so let's be patient and build this right!!!

[Numb3rs]

I think that there is probably about 7 teams that would be interested in Iguodala, the Bulls, Cavs, Magic, Mavs, Clippers and maybe the Jazz or Warriors (after the team is sold?). And with the deals that Johnson and Gay have just signed, Iguodala's deal starts to look affordable.

According to SF76 Chicago wants Iguodala from us and has offered Deng, Taj Gibson and a conditional pick.

Depending on which direction the Cavs decide to go post-LeBron, Iguodala could provide a decent replacement. As far as I'm aware new head coach Byron Scott runs the princeton offence which Iguodala has at least been introduced too and could play a similar role to what Richard Jefferson did for Scott in NJ. Problem is the Cavs lack of assets. West's non-guarenteed contract? Hickson? Some of the draft picks from Miami? Perhaps a 3 team deal involving Williams?

Deals have been flying around this board involving the Magic and the likes of Gortat and Pietrus. I think Iguodala would fit well with the Magic and would probably just replace Turkoglu from their system the season before last.

I think the Mavs were interested at the deadline and are always looking to make deals. Bulter, Dampier and stevenson could all be available? And the Clips could probably just use a quality SF.

Thoughts?

[sec-106]

Really would like to take a shot at Okafor.

Do any of the following get it done:

Nocioni+Green+Speights

Nocioni+Thad+Smith

Kapono+Williams+Speights

Or any combo of the above?

[bdownbear]

Okafor could possibly be another Ben Wallace, that's if Collins toughens him up. If he is that type, would you take a shot?

[red96]

Hello Sixers board, Rockets fan here. I dont think you guys are currently trying to trade Iggy, but would our PG Lowry and SF Ariza intrest you guys? I heard you guys were still looking to strenghten your 1 slot. Lowry is a RFA but his QA is only about 3 mill. He's young and alot cheaper (and better)then what alot of scrubs been getting this offseason and will definitely battle Jrue for the starting position. Iggy is a richer man's Ariza (literally) but he also costs twice as much as Ariza. I think the addition of Ariza with Turner would more then pick up the slack from Iggy's departure.

Would do you guys think about this rotation?

Lowry (Holiday)/Holiday (Lowry)
Turner
Ariza/Nocioni
Brand/Nocioni
Hawes/Speights


IMHO thats a nice 8 man rotation. Thoughts?

[BringBackKorver]

Not really. We have Lou at backup PG, so Lowry doesn't hold a ton of value. I wouldn't mind an Ariza for Iguodala swap as long as we grab a couple of those NY picks in the process.

[ZarcMumoff]

I don't mind Ariza for Iguodala, but would need like BBK said, some of the NYK's draft picks.

[Wydmuch]

Ariza PLUS a center. No other possibility. We have already ton of small players.

[76erFixer]

Only Okafor deal I would do is Brand and Kapono for Peja and Okafor.

We get more cap room next year and the Hornets get out of Okafors deal a year early (maybe 2 because I heard brand has a team option)

I like Okafor but with big contracts like Igoudala and Brand, our expirings are more valuable imo

[sem3376]

Why does everybody including some national pundits think we need help at the point? That might be the only position we don't need help at. A lot of people are gonna be suprised this year and beyond when holliday starts to take peoples lunch!

haha yup. not many people are familiar with him but that will change this year even with all the talented young point guards.

[radrmd216]

red96, what about Iggy for Ariza, Hill, and possibly a pick? i would like Patterson, but he might not be that available and we would have to wait 60 days to do the ttrade.

Ariza's numbers improved, but some people say he his game actually got worse. Did his play not justify his numbers?
