TRADE ACCEPTED

Due to New York, L.A. Clippers, and Philadelphia being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. New York, L.A. Clippers, and Philadelphia had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.


LAC-tired of playing elton Brand at the center position, they trade their backup young PF and backup C for a starting Center who will work great down low with Brand. He doesn't need the ball to score. And brand is already the athletic one. Nazr is a beast on the offensive glass so they should improve from his presence.

NY- Nazr has played well for them all year, but he is not what they need. Kurt Thomas cannot run or Jump and they need some athleticism down low to block some shots and grab some rebounds. They trade one of their most valuable assets in Nazr and a throw in (Bruno) for a young athletic big Dalembert and a backup C from LA with an expiring contract.

Philly- Has not really made it work with Dalembert on th floor. They trade him for a different kind of young big, who would play well alongside Marc Jackson who isn' very athletic. Wilcox is smarter and stronger than Dalembert and could be a perfect fit with his aggressive play on the boards and at the rim.

Would this be a move in the right direction? I think so.
