That third year on Evans' contract is the killer. I don't think it's the total amount of his contract, it's the sense around the league that no one wants to have anything but cap space in 2010. Looking at the salaries on a lot of rosters, seeing something longer than a 2 year deal is practically a rarity. Nachbar doesn't work in a sign and trade for Evans because NJ is the biggest shedder of salaries in advance of LeBron-a-palooza in 2010. Same problem with WG.
Any trade with the Nets for Kristic and/or Nachbar will have to involve a third team that can give the Nets contracts of two year or less.
How many years does Sammy have left on his contract? Three?
Yes. Try moving Sammy to Memphis, they have Jaric for three years at a lower number (plus Adrianna Lima in the stands). Jaric is like Reggie, not a horrible player in the proper role, but often over-exposed and too long and lucrative of a contract. Involve NJ with Darko going to NJ, Kristic and Marcus Williams to Philly, maybe Nachbar amd Jason Smith thrown in somewhere. Maybe you move Sammy that way, get a shooter or two and Kristic to share time at C with Speights and Smith if he stays.
