    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Kyle Korver and Steven Hunter would probably be the most tradeable rotation players and both have the kinds of skills that give them value for a team looking to bolster its depth. Since the Sixers tried to trade Hunter to New Orleans at the trade deadline, he's far from an untouchable, even if he did end up starting down the stretch when the Sixers were disillusioned with the performance of Samuel Dalembert.

    Some teams that a) might have some interest in AI and [​IMG] might be able to handle Iverson and the three years, $60-million remaining on his current contract: Golden State (Baron Davis and Mickael Pietrus), Denver (Kenyon Martin and Andre Miller), Indiana (Jamaal Tinsley, Stephen Jackson, Austin Croshere), Chicago (Ben Gordon and Luol Deng) and New York (Stephon Marbury).

    On the free agent front, the Sixers don't have much flexibility, but can offer the midlevel exception or portions thereof to bring in a veteran or two that will play the solid defense that King expects. The kinds of veterans that might work would be guys like center Jarron Collins (Utah) or wings like Adrian Griffin (Dallas) or Shandon Anderson (Miami).

    With the 13th pick in the draft, which is where Philadelphia would pick barring any lottery changes, the Sixers should be able to add either a point guard or an athletic big man to help out Webber and Dalembert in the low post. That's a start, but bigger, more dramatic moves will be required if the Sixers are to have any hope of returning to the postseason.

    Out of all those scenerio’s the Bulls one would be the best in terms of talent returning to the 76ers. It would allow them to build the roster around three former high lottery picks who have shown the ability to be stars, and also give them a lot of cap room to sign free agents.

    We should look to trade Webber, Iverson, Dalembert and Hunter this off season. If we can get something decent for them that would fit our team then I say we blow this team up.
