hunt

grant is better than davis...he's an active big man who can rebound, play hard D, & even has a decent jumper.  he's an upgrade over jackson too.
i agree about houston though...he is the suck.

Jahidi White was supposed to be the Shaq of the Eastern conference.

Man, Jahidi White isn't even the Jahidi White of the Eastern Conference.

Why not just bring in Jayson Williams?  He's big, can play d and rebound.  And we all know that he's a great shot at point blank range.  :paranoid

Stephen Hunter will probably be signed. I still would love to see Jaric, but I know its unlikely.

It's one parade of bums after another.  This team's going to be the same this year as every year.  Maybe make the playoffs as a low seed, maybe not.  No further than 2nd round, and even that would be a miracle.  Ho hum.

Hunter signed with the Sixers.

5 years 16.5 million.

Offseason needs: 2 DEs, 1 DT, 1 OL, 2 LBs, 1 RB, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 1 KR.

The Sixers are running neck and neck with the Knicks in terms of worst payroll management and worst player personnel decisions in the NBA.

$16.5 Million for that piece of garbage?!?!?

Good God.

:-D

That's 3 million dollars a year for a big man with potential... who can back up Dalembert, block shots and rebound.  We're over the cap by a mile anyway, so who cares at this point.  He's an upgrade over Marc Jackson and makes less. 
Allan Houston will be signing soon as well. 

Rome

I watched Steven Hunter in Orlando.

He has no potential.  He flat-out sucks, period.

He can block shots, and that is about it. That is what young shot blockers cost.

I disagree with him being an upgrade over Jackson.  :-\

Sixers still can sign another player too. On top of that a trade isn't out of the question either.

Billy said he has a plan. I believe him until proven otherwise.

See 2001-02. 2002-03, 2003-04 and 2004-05.

Unless of course the plan was to put a mediocre team on the court that was too good to lose and too bad to win during the last 5 years.  If that's the plan then I stand corrected.

The guy is only 23 he still has to have some potential.

He's an upgrade over Marc jackson, who is way undersized to be playing center. 
You can't count the Larry Brown years against Billy King, Larry Brown basically had total control.  2003-2004 was injury riddled, what was Billy supposed to do.  He's been making changes, and has added some great young guys to a superstar and one of the best pfs in the game.
