ASSUMING WE DON'T GET THE #1 PICK,

Do you guys think Philly goes for Blatche, the #1 pick, Mike James (expiring), and Etan Thomas (expiring) for Iguodala and Speights?

I think this deal would be a real homerun for us. Yes, we do take on a lot of salary with Iggy, but he is a great fit next to Gil, because he can pass like a PG and is a stud defender. Iggy is similar to Butler in that he is a star who is a good role player. I think Speights would be the real steal of this deal though. Just look at his numbers this year. The guy is a stud. He scores a lot, boards a lot, and blocks shots a lot. I really think this guy is going to be a bigtime player.

I think Philly would go for this deal, because they seem to want to make Thad Young a centerpiece and that guy needs to get his touches. Plus, with these tough economic times, I am sure they would be up for slashing salary and Blatche is a good fit for their team. They could use that 1st round pick on a guy like Thabeet or Hill.

I think Philadelphia has some things going with some young talent on their team and Iggy will turn into one of those veteran lockeroom leaders. Your post is contradictory, you say Iggy is a #2 and they are trying to get Young to be the centerpiece. Isnt that going to plan then?

Not gonna happen man.
