    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">A year ago, there was the possibility of sending Snow to Orlando in a three-way deal in which they would have acquired Michael Olowokandi from Minnesota.

    Olowokandi could remain attractive to the Sixers because, even though his salary is $5 million-plus, he is only signed through 2005-06.</div>

    They would have to have brain damage to do that. But it would be a great move for the Wolves.

    Dalembert for Kandi, I'd take that in a heartbeat. Kandi has proved to be a bust and Sammy is very young and is only getting better. They expect huge things from him, as do I. I guess we can keep dreaming because that would never happen.

    Damlebert wouldnt be traded for kandi unless king is retarted. I wouldnt trade anyone form the sixers team for kandi, but since they are intrested possible we could aquire glenn robinson from them or bring over arron mckie.

    Dalembert is about 3 times better than Olowakandi, I doubt Philadelphia would be so dumb as to do this. Especially when they can have a great future at the anchor positions (Dalembert and Iggy).

    No need for Glenn or Mckie if we resign Hassell. And I'd take McKie over Glenn right now. Glenn is getting old, and bugged by injuries. All Glenn is, is a scorer. McKie is a scorer but he can hit the outside shot nicely and would be a better fit I think. With McKie, you won't have to worry about injuries as much as you would with Glenn.

    I see no business making a trade with Philly. Only if we got Dalembert in return which is going to happen. I say we just wait until we find out what happens with Hassell. Then we make our move. Because, if we trade for a center, and Hassell isn't resigned, we will be in need of a better backup to Wally, besides Ebi.

    Ok, I live in Philly and follow the 76ers every step and just to let you know that the 76ers included Sammie as a big piece of the 76ers future. He is a young player that has really blossomed and showed us mad potential. He is a fierocous shoot blocker and cat quick for a big man getting down the floor. One other great thing about him is that you can throw that ball anywhere near that rim and he'll flush it. The fans of Philly have grown to be attached to him and I don't think King would ship him out.
