Brand is a 20/10/2 career in a slump but the type of player we need. Thats why i take him. With the Kings we wont dump Carroll, with the Sixers we might be able.

First of all, there isn't a chance in hell that the Mavs take on Brand and Iggy's contracts. It's just not happening. So it's pretty pointless to debate.
Beyond that, Brand is not "in a slump". He's no longer very good. And he's an undersized PF that can't play any defense. He's like a more expensive version of Drew Gooden that scores a little better. There's no way he plays more than 20 minutes a night for this team, and he's making $51 million over the next three seasons.
You'd be insane to trade anything of any value to Philly for Elton Brand. Again...yuck.
