NBA Trade deadline

[Payam]

Wow, what a crazy few days in the NBA.

For the 76ers, they just completed their second trade in two days.

Their first trade was with the Kings... A three for three trade that consisted of the following players.

Kings got:
Kenny Thomas
Corliss Williamson
Brian Skinner

76ers got:
Chris Webber
Matt Barnes
Michael Bradley

Their second trade was with the Hornets.

Hornets got:
Glenn Robinson

76ers got:
Jamaal Mashburn
Rodney Rogers

This trade was a little weird, because both Glenn Robinson and Jamaal Mashburn could not play anymore because of their injuries.

Another trade, between the Celtics and Caviliers.

Celtics got:
2007 draft pick

Cavs got:
Jiri Welsch

TRADE RUMORS around the NBA:

The Rumor: Hornets point guard Baron Davis to Golden State.

The Reason: The Warriors need a franchise player in the worst way. Davis has been at odds with Hornets coach Byron Scott, who criticized Davis last week for wanting to extend the rehabilitation of his injured ankle in his hometown of Los Angeles.


The Rumor: Bucks shooting guard Michael Redd to Portland.

The Reason: Redd said late Wednesday that he wants to stay in Milwaukee, and the Bucks have maintained all along that they want to keep their franchise player. But GM Larry Harris runs the risk of getting nothing for Redd, who becomes an unrestricted free agent in July.


The Rumor: Sonics guard Ray Allen to be shipped out of Seattle.

The Reason: Talks on a contract extension have stalled. Allen's agent is seeking a near-maximum deal of $90 million over five years, while the Sonics are offering a reported $68 million over five years.


The Rumor: Knicks forward Kurt Thomas to a championship contender.

The Reason: According to the New York Post, Knicks president Isiah Thomas is desperate to make his team younger by the trading deadline. Problem is, Isiah's only commodity might be the 32-year-old veteran.


The Rumor: Raptors forward Donyell Marshall to Indiana, Miami or San Antonio.

The Reason: The Pacers are the latest to join the sweepstakes for Marshall, who has been targeted as the next Raptor to go since Toronto dealt Vince Carter and shifted its focus to building around Chris Bosh. Marshall's expiring contract, which pays him $5.3 million this season, is as appealing as his three-point shooting and rebounding skills.


The Rumor: Celtics point guard Gary Payton to a playoff contender.

The Reason: Payton, who was never in Celtics director of basketball operations Danny Ainge's long-term plans, has asked to be traded.
