Damp and Josh are two huge expiring contracts both with some game left in them. if you're gonna blow your whole load all at once you should be sure it's the best you can get. we have no 1st rd. pick this year. we have Roddy and Calathes. not a lot of young talent or picks or other big expiring contracts to deal. so if we deal Damp/Josh for Iggy/Dalembert we're presumably rolling with that team for a while. maybe we re-sign Damp using the MLE? but not alot of flexibility. does this trade make us an elite team or just better?
then again it could be that Iggy is the best we could do with the Dust Chip anyway and we lose out. like you said no way they do Josh&junk for Iggy. i'm not convinced Philly'd even do Josh/Damp for Iggy/Dalembert. they'll probably insist on Brand.
