WHY Orland does this?
#1 they get rid of Hills contract, and get back a player who can more than adequately fill the void left by Gooden for one year while Howard gets a year under his belt. This would give them an expiring contract, and another contract with Delk that will expire in another year. Delk could compete for some time at either guard position becuase they have a LOT of young unproven players after you get past Francis and Mobley....

WHY Dallas does this?
They get back a good young player in Gooden who could be a long term solution at PF depth, SF depth, and possibly the Center rotation.....yes we get the albatross that is known as Grant Hill, but this team is NEVER going to get under that CAP again so why worry about how much we are over it.....once you pass the threshold the only thing that can hold you back is you unwillingness to spend....who knows maybe Hill will turn into a decent roll player.....

I would do this in a heartbeat
