Sixers get:
Raymond Felton
Nazr Mohammed (Bobcats are desperate to get rid of)

Bobcats get:
Andre Miller (who will be a free agent at the end of the year and seems unwilling to resign)

then I would at least try to make a push for Amare, even though the Sixers probably don’t have the necessary pieces to get him (and you can’t trade Iggy b/c of clause in his contract)

Maybe something along the lines of:

Sixers get:
Amare Stoudemire

Suns get:
Samuel Dalembert (and his ridiculous $11million contract)
Louis Williams
1st round pick (maybe two 1st rounders)

I don’t know why they would do it, but hey, the Lakers got Pau for Kwame

Someone to go out there and totally loose his mind on the court! I would love that backcourt. Jackson and Lou. On the Boston game broadcast Lou was talking smack to Garnett, and Bob Salami was talking about he needs to be quite. Contrary, that's exactly what this team needs a swagger.

A cockiness added and one of those passive leaders gone, and Elton isn!t going anywhere. I have been looking all over the league for a trade that gets us that kind of guy and the best I could come up with is the following: A.Miller and a future #1, if necessary to Gol.St. for S.Jackson,Morrow and C.J. Watson. This only works if Gol.St. wants to clear cap space and room in their crowded backcourt. Sessions is mentioned a lot on here but Watson is another undrafted player that seems to be able to hit the three. Morrow is a guy that fits here perfect and Gol. St. put themselves in a bind with the Maggette signing so one of them has to go.With Azubuike [a Nelson favorite] there along with Ellis coming in soon Morrow may be gettable. L.Will. gets the starting p.g. spot because a backcourt of L.Will. and S.Jackson[if he can handle the 2 guard] would give this team a cockiness and well needed swagger, something this team could use I believe.

I predict the Sixers do nothing because as it stands with Brand out a month, a new coach, Big Ed doesn't know what we have yet. Remember the Cleveland trade last year; Everybody thought it was a bad trade and they didn't gel last season. Add Mo Williams a year later and now look at them. We loose Miller next season either way, so in a season that we have committed to make a playoff run do we move Miller? That's giving up and Ed has too much pride and too much at stake for that. And what makes everybody think that anybody wants Dummy Bear so bad? We will make a huge mistake moving Thad and we're stuck with Iggy. So we'll just have to play the hand. You guys are tripping!

Compare the 2001 team position by position with this group, would it surprise you that other than A.I. and Theo, who else is better ? Last years team had less talent but found a way to play and maximize each others role. I keep thinking of how Carney finished strong, how J.Smith had his little contributions [screening,blocks, jumpshots], how Reggie, in spite of his offense was a factor for 28 minutes a night, how a less well rounded Thad gave us as much as he has this year, it seems. It isn!t as much an upgrade in talent but getting the right pieces. How would this team be playing this year if we kept the same group with the only additions being Spieghts and Theo for Booth I wonder. An identity was being formed last year and maybe E.S. should of  seen how far that gritty group could have gotten. Guys, is it just a talent issue ?

Of course the bench also needs to be better, but that was always the summer of '09's project anyway.
