For Kedric Brown and Kevin Ollie - DONE DEAL according to the front page of http://insidehoops.com

**Damian Necronamous** · 07-20-2004, 11:20 AM

Great deal for the Cavs, they've got two nice PGs there now, in Snow and McInnis. I'd expect them to trade Z and Wagner in a package deal soon.

I think it was a good deal on both sides. not the fact that we got back 2 stiffs, but it allows AI's eventual move which I have been screaming for the 2 years back to PG. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

good trade for the cavs. The sixers just have to hope that brown can develop now. Ollie has a huge horrible contract.

Ollie's contract isn't very good (4 years, $12 million), but I'd wouldn't go so far as to call it huge or horrible -- Snow's is much worse in my opinion (5 years, $30 million). Snow is a better player obviously, but the Sixers don't especially need him with Iverson ready to slide into the PG spot. If Brown can fulfill some of his promise, it'll be all the better for the Sixers.

Very good deal for both sides.

Bad deal by the 76ers.

Illie bad contract and Brown is out of shape

**Mongolmike** · 07-20-2004, 12:48 PM

The same hopes 76er fans have about Kedrick, are the same hopes Celt fans had, and then Cavs fans had.... he's got great athletic ability... but he plays timid. He will disappear for long stretches, and I don't think he is mentally very tough. One thing that kept being brought up about his game, is for as athletic as he is, why doesn't he attack the rim and draw fouls? He rarely gets to the line, and he would rather gun long jumpers.

In any case, he had his shot in C-town, now, he's your problem. I really like Eric Snow's game, and the fact that he's coming back to his home town area. If AI moves to pg, then good for you. If you're looking for another SG.... interested in DaJaun Wagner? He's on the blocks too.

and Snow is a solid player

jc76ers · 07-20-2004, 01:01 PM

bad trade for the sixers. they don't need anymore guards. brown and olllie will barely play. they just gave away snow for nothing.

i do like the idea of iverson back at PG though.

Brown is a two time failure for the Celtics and the Cavs, I consider him a nonfactor in this trade. I wouldn't bat an eyelash if he sat on the IL all year and we nontendered him as a restricted free agent and take his salary off the books. So if all that happens is that we shave 30 million down to 14 million, then thats okay by me.

Its time to see what Green, Salmons, and Iggy can do in some type of nontraditional backcourt configuration with AI as pseudo point. You know he's going to tear up the Olympics with the unselfishness and unbelievably high shooting % that he displayed in the Olympic Qualifying events, hopefully it carries over into the season this time.

**RoyWilliams** · 07-20-2004, 02:46 PM

I like the trade personally. Id rather have Ollies contract over Snows.

Bubbachuck · 07-20-2004, 03:07 PM

Billy will just make some moves as has been reported on TV. With the roster standing at 18 players he'll have to ship out a lot of people. Carter is on the trading block, we could try and get him. It might sound impossible, but we can throw anyone at them for Carter.

Nice trade cap wise, and possibility wise for another trade.

Iverson is untouchable..

I dont mean to sound rude or anything of the sort, but do any of you know what you are talking about? Pleas explain how it is a bad trade where we shave years and money off of the books we allow AI to slide over to the point get younger and Willie Green moves to the starting lineup at the 2. Neither one of those guys will play much so in essence it was a cap move as well as a situational one to get our younger guys more playing time. At least look at the situation before saying how bad a trade is. It was a good trade on the Cavs side as well. These are 2 non essential basketball players. Im still not a Billy King fan but hes making alot of good trades lately and cap mastering.
