Posted on Thu, Aug. 04, 2005 Sixers show interest in McCarty Add Walter McCarty to the list of veteran free agents contacted by the 76ers. The 6-10 McCarty, 31, finished last season with Phoenix after seven-plus seasons in Boston. "They've called, and there is interest, but like a lot of teams they're waiting to see which players might become available through amnesty," said Michael Higgins, McCarty's agent. Billy King, the Sixers' president/general manager, confirmed the contact. The amnesty clause provides a onetime opportunity by Aug. 15 for a team to waive a player and avoid paying a luxury tax on the player's contract. The player would be paid the full value of the contract, and it would continue to count against the team's salary cap. A first-round draft choice of New York in 1996, McCarty holds career averages of 5.3 points and 2.7 rebounds. He is regarded as a helpful defender, three-point shooter and team-oriented player. The Boston Herald reported that McCarty had narrowed his choices to the Sixers, Dallas and Houston, but Higgins says there are other teams involved, including San Antonio. "He's got young legs and still has some gas in the tank," Higgins said. "He's a great veteran, a classy individual, a team guy." Portland yesterday became the first team to use the amnesty clause, designating Derek Anderson and about $19 million remaining on his deal. http://www.philly.com/mld/philly/sports/basketball/12298945.htm 小弟英文能力不是很好 应该是说我们76,小牛,火箭,马刺对McCarty有兴趣吧! 我觉得McCarty也蛮不错的 年纪虽大了点,但感觉跟R.Rogers蛮像的 打大前锋又会砍三分,而且比R.Rogers年轻些 ps.其实我也有点希望D.Anderson来76人说,呵呵... -- --
