Yeah just like for Lowry so I guess anything is possible. With Lowry in, Bayless out, I‘d really like to see Jose back. Only players I‘d be willing to offer for Iggy right now are Ed and JJ... Add in a couple picks, TE & cash and everything can be done!
Valanciunas/Gray/Magloire
Bargnani/Johnson/Acy
Iguodala/Kleiza
DeRozan/Fields/Ross
Lowry/Calderon
Gotta sign a 3rd PG
If DeRozan could improve his D, the Raptors would suddenly have one of the best perimeter defences in the league. An amazing trade, Iggy would bring solid consistency and leadership to a team that sorely needs it.
However, it seems too good to be true, but fans can always hope and dream, right?

Walking like I'm already there.
What was Wright traded to the 76ers for?
I'd love to get Iggy without giving up Demar, but there are so many rumours on where he could end up.
Iggy for 2nd round draft pick and amir
They didn't even get that. They got a past pick, who coincidentally was picked by us. It was a salary dump move. Shame really, We could've used someone like that. Especially if he could come close to his 2010-2011 numbers
"Edin Bavcic of Bosnia and Herzegovina in return. The 76ers acquired Bavcic’s rights in a trade with Toronto in 2006"
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sport...rticle4404903/
Now BC needs to turn the Fields signing into something similar... 2013 2nd round pick & rights to Zubcic & $3.15M TPE to NYK for Fields (3yrs @ $6.3M per)... make it happen BC! NYK only get a TPE worth 50% of Fields' contract, due to it being a S&T, rather than a trade for a player under an existing contract.
You would think that GS received better offers for Wright than the Philly one
Unless a salary dump is all they wanted. A guy who'll likely never play in the NBA and a TPE equivalent to Wright's contract is just about the perfect salary dump trade. The only way it could have been better is if a draft pick was involved as well, but I doubt any team would/could provide all of the above.
Not another tweener.
I am happy we didn't trade for him. Kleiza will prove to be a much better option.
From Philly Inquirer:
Already loaded with players at small forward, the 76ers added another on Tuesday, acquiring 26-year-old Dorell Wright from the Golden State Warriors for the NBA draft rights to 2006 second-round pick Edlin Bavcic, according to a league source.
Wright, in the final year of a contract that will pay him $4.4 million, averaged 10.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game last season for the Warriors in 27 minutes per game. He joins a group of Sixers small forwards that includes Andre Iguodala and first-round pick Maurice Harkless.And then speculation from HoopsWorld.com:The move could indicate yet another move to be made by the team. Still in need of a legitimate power forward and a backup point guard, the Sixers have been stockpiling one- and two-year contracts that make them a more desirable trade partner. They also could be setting themselves up for next season, when the free-agent market will be more robust.
Minnesota and Toronto have long been rumored to be interested in acquiring Iguodala.
The T’Wolves currently have a $45 million offer on the table to restricted free agent small forward Nicolas Batum, but the Portland Trail Blazers are intent on matching the deal. The inability to potentially pry Batum away from Portland may push Minnesota back into trade talks for Iguodala over the next few weeks.
In my opinion, if Minny loses out on Batum, they have a better package than the Raps could offer:
Minnesota: Derrick Williams, Luke Ridnour, non-guaranteed contracts to make the difference, 2-2013 first round picks - plus MIN is not a divisional rival.
Toronto: any combination of Calderon, DD, ED, JJ, Amir.
Will be interesting to see what comes of both the Batum and Iggy situations. The one thing that Minny can't offer is a good young PF, whereas Toronto has Amir and Davis, should that be something Philly wants in return. Davis would fit nicely into their young core group and is a pure PF, rather than a tweener. I could also see Calderon's $10.5M expiring contract as an attractive asset, since Philly seems to be preparing to be a major player next offseason.
