Sixers Season thread 2

This is their second win in a row without the little general.

That should tell you something.  Well, it should but since you're Sixers fans, sadly, it won't.

Right rome.   


They are obviously worse offensively without Iverson, though they've played incredible defense the last two games.  I find it hard to believe that he is a 20-30 point liability defensively, but he is the reason they aren't scoring 100 when he isn't in.

They won 3 straight with him in the lineup before their loss to the Magic. After a shteinload of turmoil I think as a team they've buckled down defensively and are playing decent ball. How long it will last is a different story.

Every team in the division has been outscored by their opponents in terms of total pf and pa.

I absolutely LOVE the AI haters coming out of the woodwork now. They were crawling all over WIP last night. Jolovitz was beating them down. Good entertainment. They'd come on the air and spout off about how they're a much better team without AI and then couldn't answer this simple question:

Over a full season would the Sixers have more wins with or without AI.

Not only did they win 3 in a row last week but they also won 6 in a row early in the season WITH IVERSON.

No one would argue that the Sixers need help. But it doesn't involve not having AI on the team. But hey...enjoy the hating.

Last year without AI, like they just said on TV....0-7. But hey..they're a better team, right?

There are some who think the team needs to get rid of Iverson but replace him with another star player.  And that's fine.  I don't necessarily agree, but that's fine.  It sounds to me though, from what you're saying, that there are some people who think that the team (as it's built right now) would be better off without AI than with him.  To me, that's just flat out retarded.   

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yup, ridiculous isn't it?

I listened to numerous callers call into GCobb (on after the game) and Jolovitz (on the overnight) last night and said that this team, as it is NOW, would be better off without AI.

See now that's just st00pid.  And I don't mean like "Pull on a door that says Push" st00pid.  I'm talking about "Would you like an apple pie with that? McDonalds retard" st00pid. 

[The BIGSTUD]

If the Sixers somehow managed to trade Allen Iverson for expiring contracts, the best player they would get in free agency is a Shareef Abdur Rahim type. Or an Al Harrington type. Decent players, but of no star caliber.

If Iverson left the Sixers I don't think they'd get a player of his caliber on the team in a long long time. That is with the drafts getting weaker and all. The only good draft in the last 5 years was the draft with James, Bosh, Wade, Anthony. Look at last year's draft. Bogut was #1 overall. Usually you'd expect a #1 overall to be burning the headlines, but not the way the drafts have been lately.

when the sixers win six in a row with iverson the argument is yeah but you cant win a championship with him...when they win two in a row minus iverson that means they are better without him...you cant win either way with the haters so theres no point in trying


good stuff

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I'm not an Iverson fan, but there's no way in hell the Sixers are better without him.

[Rome]

I really don't care.

I do think it's funny that whenever someone dares mention the possibility that the Sixers might be better off without Iverson, some of you f'n lose it like 10 year-old school girls.
