Great package for Philly. I know alot of people think that LA is being hosed in this deal but I don't. Livingston has really begun to turn the corner and he is playing EXCELLENT basketball for the Clippers. As long as Sam is there is going to be a problem with what PG to run and I think they want to rid themselves of that problem. Run Livingston and Iverson in the same backcourt and you got one hell of a tandem.

Maggette is a very good player, combine him and Iguadola at the 2 and 3, along with Sam and you got yourself a very good backcourt. Add in Webber and Dalembert and you got yourself a very good starting lineup with one hell of a bench as well.

Philly instantly becomes a better team while LAC hopes that the combination of Iverson/Brand/Livingston gets them farther into the playoffs, I think it could. I think they would have to make another trade, maybe if someone becomes available at the Trade Deadline they could trade some draft picks and Koralev for that player. Good trade.

I love Cassell and what he brings to a team. He is a leader and makes the players around him better. Maggette has alot of talent but has been injured alot. I am surprised LA didn't offer Thomas instead. Mobley is a good player and overall I think its a good package for the Sixers. They need to move on. Cassell is getting up there but Iverson plays so hard that at 30 I think you have to worry he will be on the decline also.
