Built Ford Tough Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 (edited) The Philadelphia 76ers have agreed to swap Samuel Dalembert to the Sacramento Kings for Andres Nocioni and Spencer Hawes, two league sources told ESPN.com. The deal was agreed to on Tuesday night and the two teams have been working out details Thursday morning. Barring some last minute hitch the trade should be completed as early as Thursday afternoon, according to the sources. The deal will give the Kings a player they've long coveted in Dalembert. The Kings tried to make several deals with the Sixers last year for Dalembert but couldn't make it happen. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5297829 Not a bad trade for both teams. Sacramento gets their defensive minded big (at least when Dalembert has his head on straight) and manage to dump Nocioni's contract. They have a pretty nice rotation of big men now with Dalembert, Thompson, Landry and whoever they pick at 5, so Cousins or Monroe). That is a solid rotation. The Kings have done a nice job of building this team up in my opinion. As for Philly, they finally get rid of Dalembert. This leaves them pretty thin at the 5 though with just Speights and Hawes, so perhaps the rumors about them wanting to acquire a late lottery pick may come true. Anyways, solid deal for both teams. EDIT: Didn't see the thread in the Sixers forum. Sorry about making a 2nd thread. Edited June 17, 2010 by Built Ford Tough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xx. Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 nice for both, can the kings still get T.Prince?Yeah because the 5th pick wasn't a part of the deal and the trade was the 5th for Prince, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted June 17, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Don't worry about the re-post, it can go into both team forums. Nice deal for Philly. Sacramento gets Dalembert, which really seems to be the downgrade, but they do dump Nocioni's contract (four years, TO on the fourth).

Dash Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I don't like how the Kings gave up so quickly on Hawes but considering that they are likely going to get Cousins or Monroe in the draft, I guess it makes sense. Also frees up some cap space for them next season. Overall good trade for both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted June 17, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Also frees up some cap space for them next season. You mean AFTER next season, right? I believe Dalembert is signed for the 2010-11 season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
