Apparently, besides the Dalembert deal, which I'd personally love but I don't see Philly jumping on, NY and ATL are in serious discussions for a Marbury/Harrington swap. The whole deal would involve the Hawks also giving us Collier, Delk, and most likely a future 1st Rounder or two.
I know Isiah really likes Harrington from his coaching days in Indy. But I'm impartial to this deal. Harrington is young, and he's a solid player, but he's no All-Star, and doesn't fill an immediate need.
I guess if Atlanta is giving us an unprotected 1st I'd jump on it, but it depends if it's protected or not...
Another way to look at it is that it would give us some serious leverage in getting the team salary down to or below the cap. With Timmy and Penny sliding off (assuming we keep them after this type of move), and then Taylor and Houston in 06, we would set ourselves up very nicely to be able to bring Lebron to NY...
But right now, assuming this is a serious rumor, which it seems like now, I'm 50/50 on it. We'll probably find out more in the next day or two...
