good news is is that dalembert’s is expiring i think so that opens up 10 million. i think most people underrate iguodala. you may think that he is not a good shooter. but he is taking a lot more 3’s than he should be because philly has no 3 pt shooters. he has good handles and finishes at the bucket like LBJ or d-wade can. his contract is the risk. if he fits well and gives us that scoring wing that we need. i dont mind taking the ginormous contract. problem is is that we don’t know whether or not he will fit in.

i guess doing a scola and tmac for haywood and butler sounds like a good deal to me. haywood is the big guy we need. hes strong, great defender and rebounder, and has a decent post game. plus he should only be in his mid 20’s. if butler has 4 or 5 more years left in him. fine, ill take that, but i dont know if he does or not. jason said that we would probly let haywood take a good offer in off-season. why would we not resign him? he doesn’t force shots, he would be an excellent complement off the bench to yao and when we play against a team with two 7 footers (ex: memphis, LA, Cle,etc) we can have them both on the court and match up well. but if butler doesnt fit it, that is ok because he only has one year left on his contract. pick your risk

1. iggy’s ability to fit in with us (big contract too)

2. butler’s age.
