Malone Trade - All you teams that are disappointed by FA's

[Skyhooker]

Just last week a report emerged that the Philadelphia 76ers star planned to submit a formal trade request from the team in the near future. When reached for comment, Malone said he has no plans to demand a trade from the 76ers but stopped short of fully committing to remain in Philly.

"I haven't made any firm decision on what my future will be," Malone said.

Front-office executives say that if the 76ers eventually move Malone, they can expect a return surpassing what the Grizzlies gave up for Magic Johnson. Magic is a generational player, but he had only one guaranteed season left on his contract at the time of the trade. Philly could do even better and should expect some young players with good upside and multiple 1st round picks plus potentially future pick swaps. because Malone has two seasons remaining on his contract and is coming off a record breaking 8th MVP season in which he scored nearly a career high of 34.1 ppg. The longer-term security in Malone’s contract could lead to more interest from teams and more return in a trade.

Some believe Malone is unhappy with the current roster of the 76ers as there is only 1 player besides himself that is guaranteed to return next season. Some executives in the league have said even openly that Malone has not received the support he needs to win a championship. However, those with inside knowledge actually believe the cities high tax rate on his salary is what is prompting Malone to look for greener pastures.

When asked to comment, Philly's GM (Mrs. Skyhooker) said, "We won't comment specifically on any specific player or any player movement that we anticipate this off-season. But....Moses has been very happy with the roster and how it's been managed the last 9 years. He's had input on every move we've made and no team has been more successful."

[Skyhooker]

Got a few offers I'm considering.
Probably gonna pull the trigger by end of playoffs, whether it's announced then or not I'm not sure.
Don't wait to get your offer in.

Now that the playoffs have ended for the 76ers, Alan Gorey of 76ers All the Time magazine, is reporting that the team is close to announcing a deal involving 76er GOAT and DASL HOF'er Moses Malone being traded. In fact, that announcement may come as early as tonight.

Despite what GM Skyhooker said less than a week ago, it seems that the team has been working behind the scenes to make a deal sending Moses out of Philly should they lose without achieving a championship this year. According to a source that asked to remain anonymous, the team did not want to part with Moses and it's believed that Moses himself wanted to stay, but many questions regarding the short-term direction of Philly's roster led Moses' agent to ask for the trade.
