Dude, BC is good, but there's no way he can rape the Sixers like that... Iguodala and Dalembert for TJ, Rasho, Kapono, and Garbo, and 2 low picks? TJ and Garbo are both coming back from injury, plus they have no need for either of them... Then you have two picks in the 22-30 range, an expiring contract, and a one dimensional shooter...Not even in 2K8 is that possible...
If you want something good, you're going to have to give up something good..
Buddy, Iggy turned down a 57 mill/yr extension (and that was when Billy "Big Spender" King offered him that deal. You think this new GM would give him more than that? and do you think he would take a similar offer only to play for another losing season? especially when they're tryin to deal Miller? What else would be left for Iggy to play for in Philly? I am sure he'll turn a similar offer down and take the QO to become unrestricted. You think if that happens, Philly will just let him walk to a team that will have cap space in the 09/10 season? They'd rather milk the cow.
Lets say that TJ comes back and stays healthy the remaining season and plays well enough to get his starting spot back (which I am sure Smitch will give back to TJ seeing how Smitch is a "know your role" guy). TJ's stock rises again. Kapono has been having a good shooting season. Rasho is a good servicable big with a very attractive 8 mill expiring contract. 2 first round picks + Garbo's expiring contract puts Philly in a good spot to sign FA's better than Iggy in th subsequent years.

A young PG is commodity in this league. Specially when you have a declining PG like Miller, you don't pass up the opportunity to land a TJ Ford if you can. Add to it the opportunity of getting out of Sammy D's big ticket contract, Philly just might bite on it.
