Here is a portion of the story:

guodala was versatile and a terrific defender, but couldn't be the No. 1 offensive option the Sixers craved.

The Magic insisted that the Sixers include Harkless, a rookie forward who played one season at St. John’s.

“Orlando thinks highly of him, as we do,” Thorn said. “If we didn’t have him, we couldn’t make the deal. I was loathe to include him in it.”
