The Philadelphia 76ers President Billy King announced today that the

Iverson and forward Ivan McFarlin.
Playing in his eighth NBA season, Miller owns career averages of 14.1
points, 7.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.40 steals per game. This season
the 6-foot-2, 200-pound point guard is averaging 13.0 points, 9.1
assists (3rd in NBA), 4.5 rebounds and 1.61 steals (9th in NBA) per
game while shooting 47.2 percent overall (177-248 FG). A First Team NBA
All-Rookie Team selection in 1999-00, Miller enjoyed one of his best
seasons in 2001-02 while playing with Cleveland when he averaged a
career-best 16.5 points and a NBA-leading 10.9 assists per game.
Throughout his NBA career, he has played in 309-straight regular season
games and only missed three games in eight seasons. In 15 playoff
games, Miller has averaged 16.0 points, 5.2 assists and 4.7 rebounds
per game.
Miller was selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round (8th
overall) in the 1998 NBA Draft after a four-year collegiate career at
the University of Utah, where he finished his career as the Utes
all-time leader in steals (254) and assists (721). After three seasons
with Cleveland (1999-02), Miller was traded to the L.A. Clippers along
with Bryant Stith in exchange for Darius Miles and Harold Jamison on
June 30, 2002, where he would play for the 2002-03 season. On Aug. 1,
2003, Miller signed with the Denver Nuggets (8/1/03) where he has
played the last four seasons.
A seven-time All-NBA Team selection and 2000-01 MVP, Iverson averaged
28.1 points, 6.1 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 2.33 steals in 697 games in
11 seasons with the 76ers. With 19,583 points he finishes his career in
Philadelphia ranked second on the franchise scoring list and currently
ranks 32nd on the NBA all-time scoring list. Iverson captured four
scoring titles (2004-05, 2001-02, 2000-01, 1998-99) with the Sixers,
including a career-high 31.4 points per game in 2001-02. In 15 games
this season, Iverson is averaging 31.2 points (2nd in NBA), 7.3
assists, 2.7 rebounds and 2.20 steals per game while shooting 41.3
percent overall, 88.5 percent from the free throw line (19th in NBA)
and 22.6 percent from long range. Iverson also leads the NBA in minutes
per game (42.7 mpg).
The first overall selection in the 1996 NBA Draft, Iverson led the
76ers to the NBA Playoffs, six times including a storied run to the
2001 NBA Finals. In 62 playoff games with the Sixers, Iverson averaged
30.6 points, 6.1 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.19 steals per game. In
seven NBA All-Star Game appearances, Iverson averaged 17.3 points and
6.7 assists per game and captured two All-Star Game MVP awards (2001,
2005).
A 12-year NBA veteran, Joe Smith has averaged 12.4 points and 7.1
rebounds in 762 games (565 starts) with six NBA teams: Golden State
(1995-98), Philadelphia (1997-98), Minnesota (1998-00, 2001-03),
Detriot (2000-01), Milwaukee (2003-06) and Denver (2006-07). Smith
returns to Philadelphia for his second stint with the 76ers. During the
1997-98, Smith appeared in 30 games with Philadelphia, averaging 10.3
points and 4.4 rebounds per game. Smith enjoyed his best season in
1996-97, averaging 18.7 points and 8.5 rebounds in 80 games with the
Warriors. Smith has advanced to the postseason six times, averaging 6.9
points and 5.1 rebounds in 26 playoff games.
Smith was originally drafted by the Warriors after his sophomore season
at University of Maryland with the first overall pick of the 1995 NBA
Draft and was named to the NBA's All-Rookie First Team the following
season. After two-plus seasons with the Warriors, he was traded along
with Brian Shaw to Philadelphia for Clarence Weatherspoon and Jim
Jackson on Feb. 17, 1998. Following a 30-game stint with the Sixers,
Smith signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves as a free agent (1/22/99).
On Nov. 20, 2000, Smith signed as a free agent with Detroit and prior
to the 2001-02 season with the Timberwolves (7/30/01). After two

Milwaukee for Sam Cassell and Ervin Johnson on June 27, 2003. The
Nuggets acquired Smith from the Bucks in exchange for Ruben Patterson
on Aug. 10, 2006.

has averaged 1.4 points and 1.0 rebounds in 11 games. A product of
Oklahoma State University, McFarlin spent the 2005-07 season in France

That sucks. I was hoping the Sixers would trade him to the Clippers.
Andre Miller and Joe Smith? Come on. Their contracts must be up after
this year, that's the only way this deal makes any sense for Philly.
Hopefully they win the draft lottery and get Greg Oden.

Miller has 3 yrs left at 7M or so. Smith us up this year. They will
certainly earn good odds in the lottery.
Denver is going to need more balls after everybody gets back from
suspension.
