It's a four team, four player deal.

Minnestota gets Latrell Sprewell
New York gets Keith Van Horn
Philly gets Glenn Robinson
Atlanta gets Terrell Brandon's contract (Brandon is most likely done playing Basketball)

ESPN's Ric Bucher says the deal should be done in the morning, but Philly could be the one to possibly back out. If it goes through, I think Minn. is the big winner, picking up Spree to go with Olawakandi adn Cassell, who they got earlier in the month. Minn. clearly wants to get out of the 1st round this year, maybe they finally can.

PG: Cassell
SG: Sprewell
SF: Szerbeaik
PF: Garnett
C: Olowakandi

That's what Minnesota's starting 5 looks like after this deal. Now those 5 can compeat with any other 5 in the leauge. And they got guys like Hudson, Peeler, Johnson, and the high school kid they drafted coming off the bench.

and it still might get bigger, with a 5th team joining the trade parade, apparently it could be the kings.

kings are tryin to do a sign and trade for brad miller i guess, also the sixers get marc jackson from minnesota, his name might not be as big as the others but in the east he will be one of the better centers for sure, plus hes only in like his third year hell get better too. Good move for everyone except new york if u ask me, van horn blows, salary cap implications or not what the hell.

you are right, homerun throwback. New york is now a team with all forwards. Do they have any guards left. I also don't see how Van Horn fits wih what we see what the knicks are or should be, which is a physicaly tough team on defence and a attacking offence, which none of this describes Horn, who is a best 15 point a game scorer and very soft players quarding opposing players.

As someone subjected to Atlanta Hawks basketball, I'm thrilled they gave up Big Dog Robinson. I'm chuckling thinking of him and AI on the same team. Maybe the Sixers can have 2 for 1 felony Fridays and AI and Dog can invite all their friends?

The Hawks are the lowest of the low. They drafted a freaking frenchie this year. At least they are trying to salvage a future out of the mess Pete Babcock made. Expect 25-30 wins from them next year.

But now sixers have Jackson, Coleman, AI, Big Dog, and Snow/McKee. Bring on da Nets and "Kiddney in Mourning"
