That's the rumor. Here is the deal that is on the table. It's a three-way trade with Boston and the Kings.
Sacramento would send Andris Nocioni to Boston, Kenny Thomas, Tony Allen and Brian Scalabrine would come to Philadelphia and Dalembert and J.R. Giddens would be sent to the Kings.
Here's what ESPN's Marc Stein says:
"Philadelphia’s determination to trade away Dalembert’s contract is a months-old story, which would appear to make Philly the most eager of the three teams to get this done. Thomas, Allen and Scalabrine are all on expiring contracts. Dalembert is making $12 million this season and is scheduled to earn nearly $13 million next season. The Sixers, frankly, don’t care who comes back in a Dalembert swap as long as their contracts drop off the payroll at season’s end. "
Ed Stefanski certainly has to get something done. This franchise is a mess and Dalembert's lack of offensive skills and low basketball IQ make him an easy target for the fans even though he's the team's best rebounder and shot-blocker.
