ESPN: 76ers Trying to Acquire Lowry
The Nuggets, Bulls, 76ers, Heat, Warriors and Nets are among the teams seeking to acquire Lowry, the 24th overall pick in 2006 who became expandable when the Grizzlies acquired Javaris Crittenton from the Lakers in the Gasol trade.
This from Chris Sheridan's column today about the upcoming trade deadline. Even though this is part of ESPN Insider... it's in the "FREE" section so it's worth a read.

I know Lowry is a favorite on this board and since I don't believe LouWill is the PG of the team's future, I think this would be a great move (depending on what we had to give).
Would you part with Utah's first for Lowry??

Looks like he had a good stretch of games the end of January.
13 pts 10 assists vs. Wash
21 pts 4 assists, 8 reb vs. Clips
17 pts 4 assists, 5 reb vs. Dallas
19 pts, 1 assist, 4 reb vs. Nuggs
He was playing big minutes in those games though he wouldn't get that kind of time here with Miller around. I guess he could be a good backup pt.

It could be simply to give the team options. It's probably fair to say that teams truly are pursuing Miller and that Stefanski is hesitant to deal him. However, he might be less hesitant if he at least had another young prospect to replace him if he was inclined to deal him. Basically, Ed may feel much better about moving Miller if he had Lowry, although to compare the two is absurd. It's just that the team would at least have a potential replaement. As for Williams, I think the plan is to bring him back because Miller may be on the trading block for as long as he remains in Philly (and Williams is about 20 anyway) and Lowry might not pan out either. I don't think either move means anything with regard to bringing Williams back.
