I was just randomly wondering...would both teams agree to this? I don't know if these salaries match.

PF Shareef Abdur-Rahim
PG Damon Stoudamire

for

SG Ray Allen
PF Danny Fortson

Van Exel/Telfair
Allen/Anderson
Miles/Patterson
Randolph/Fortson
Ratliff/whoever

Stoudamire/Daniels
Murray/whoever
Lewis/Radmanovich
Abdur-Rahim/Collison
James/R. Swift


I think the Blazers do this in a split second...but I think Seattle holds off.

either way, both teams benefit...Stoudamire and Shareef both expire, and Allen does as well and wants a max contract. Portland gets someone to back up Randolph with Shareef leaving, and Seattle gets one of the best point guard duos in the league...and with Allen gone, Murray gets his minutes that he rightfully deserves.
