So what i got from reading W&G's posts is there are some financial problems with the deal but both Philly and the Cavs are trying to find a third team to fix the problems. We still have an opportunity to get Iguodala. Am I right?

Honestly, it'd make most sense to try and use Sacramento as the 3rd team considering they wanted Dalembert before and have a big expiring (Kenny Thomas)... Basically it'd be Thomas + Ilgauskas + picks/players to Philly; Iguodala + players to CLE and Dalembert to Sac...

OKC could work too with Etan Thomas going to PHI and Nick Collison coming here...

Anyway here's some more buzz:

Amar'e Stoudemire trade scenarios still plausible for Suns
by Paul Coro - Feb. 8, 2010 07:09 PM
The Arizona Republic

On this final march to the Feb. 18 NBA trade deadline, there is no imminent Amar'e Stoudemire trade, but a deal with major franchise implications remains quite possible.

The Suns' most frequently mentioned potential trade partners are Cleveland and Philadelphia.

A trade prospect with Cleveland combines a financial windfall and a young, promising power forward replacement in J.J. Hickson, whom the Suns liked in the 2008 draft when they tabbed center Robin Lopez. Phoenix would stand to save several million dollars in a deal involving center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, who received most of his salary up front and could be bought out to move Phoenix toward the possibility of being a luxury tax recipient rather than payer.

Possibilities with Philadelphia could be stronger with two fronts, a deal between bringing in swingman Andre Iguodala for Stoudemire with perhaps young power forward Marreese Speights or a three-way deal involving Detroit with Pistons guard Ben Gordon winding up in Philadelphia and the Suns getting Iguodala and Detroit power forward Chris Wilcox. The rub with Iguodala, a 26-year-old former Arizona star, is inheriting a contract that will pay him $56.5 million over the next four seasons.

Stoudemire's declaration that he is leaning toward picking up next season's $17.7 million option also has muddied the trade waters for teams who like him as an expiring deal.

The Suns have not been interested in other teams' inquiries about Lopez.

I don't see how a PHI-PHO trade could work out considering the two main pieces (Amare & Dre) would occupy most of the salary in the swap, leaving little room for expiring contracts which it seems both teams need and want most...
 
I took it as the Cavs are the ones looking for a 3rd team, and not so much the 76ers because they have other offers....

hmm, time to re-read I suppose.
 
So no Iggy then?

And now W&G with the winks for multiple teams we've already been linked to in the past.

So, nothing new.
 
What's the latest ?
