I was actually quite surprised, too, and am maybe even a little hopeful. With that said, has there ever been a trade that fans had laid out in detail weeks and months before it eventually did happen?

I'm also wondering whether or not the Rockets might try to go for that Iguodala/Dalembert package with McGrady's contract. They actually need a shooting guard and a center to replace McGrady and Yao and they have the perfect contract to get it done and thus offer the 76ers the ultimate financial relief come next season which we couldn't or wouldn't want to do. Next season, Dalembert could back up Yao and be their quality insurance center just in case Yao's feet decided to take another rest. Not to mention that Dalembert's contract is about to expire in 2011 and become a valuable trade chip. Here's hoping the 76ers wouldn't do it to not totally outrage their fan base.

Edit: Just saw the post above. Still wondering why Dalembert would be so much of a problem for the Rockets. They of all teams could actually use a center given that their starting center is constantly injured. And again, they could trade Dalembert as soon as next February. Not that much of a (financial) commitment.
