that won't get it done. mashburn is done next season and taking mckie's $$$'s isn't enough to get rid of dalembert.

but this might work:

kurt + sweets + 2005 #2 + our 2006 #1

for dalembert

I have seen Dalembert play only 2 times. I am not impressed with that cat. Adding 2 picks is a NO-NO for me. I would do a Kurt and Sweetney for him though.

KT/Sweetney for Dalembert/McKie/Barnes(filler) works. contract wise. Sixers get 2 productive PF's and we take another bad contract(sigh!). They might go for that.


New York trades: C Kurt Thomas (11.8 ppg, 10.3 rpg, 2.1 apg in 36.6 minutes)
PF Mike Sweetney (8.2 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 0.6 apg in 18.8 minutes)
New York receives: SF Aaron McKie (2.1 ppg, 2.4 rpg, 1.5 apg in 15.0 minutes)
C Samuel Dalembert (7.5 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 0.5 apg in 24.2 minutes)
SF Matt Barnes (3.8 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 1.3 apg in 16.6 minutes)
Change in team outlook: -6.6 ppg, -2.9 rpg, and +0.6 apg.

Philadelphia trades: SF Aaron McKie (2.1 ppg, 2.4 rpg, 1.5 apg in 15.0 minutes)
C Samuel Dalembert (7.5 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 0.5 apg in 24.2 minutes)
SF Matt Barnes (3.8 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 1.3 apg in 16.6 minutes)
Philadelphia receives: C Kurt Thomas (11.8 ppg, 10.3 rpg, 2.1 apg in 36.6 minutes)
PF Mike Sweetney (8.2 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 0.6 apg in 18.8 minutes)
Change in team outlook: +6.6 ppg, +2.9 rpg, and -0.6 apg.

TRADE ACCEPTED

dalembert is pretty much EXACTLY what we need. he flies up and down the court. he sometimes watches the ball instead of boxing out (that can be taught) but he boards and most importantly block shots. shaq had him posted up under the basket. he went up for a hook and my man jumped straight up and swatted it. we need that. think camby but 10 years younger and 10 times healthier.

What about KT, Penny and the 2006 #1 for dalembert?

That works and they get an expiring deal.
