Sixers Season thread 2

Wallace has been grumbling all season about his lack of participation in the offense.

Of course, he farging sucks offensively, so...

It's hard to think of a good deal for Iverson. You aren't going to get an equal player of quality, so the next best option is to try and trade him for multiple lesser quality players.

If you go up and down the teams and look at rosters it's hard to pick an ideal trade for the Sixers. Maybe something like Ben Gordon, Luol Deng, and Kirk Hinrich for Iverson and someone else?

Would the Bulls even do that? The only reason I bring it up was because I read an article earlier in the season that Gordon could be on the block. That might be a deal I'd look into if the Sixers really want to move him. The Bulls stink this year so, maybe those players will amount to nothing in this league and the Sixers will have ended up giving Iverson away for garbage. Would the Sixers try to acquire Garnett? It's doubtful that Minnesota moves him after their recent deal to try to put better players around him. Garnett isn't exactly a spring chicken either. He's near 30 himself.

ben gordon & tim thomas' horrible (but expiring) contract would be a decent start for a deal, imo...but i'm not sure how a1 would work with hinrich. he probably wouldn't.
and there's no way king trades a1 if they're leading (or in serious contention) for the division title.

LOL, forgot about your work not allowing it.

Iggy is in the Dunk Contest this year.

QuoteNEW YORK -- Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith could become the third player to win consecutive NBA slam dunk contests when he participates in the event during All-Star weekend.

Michael Jordan won back-to-back competitions in 1987-88 and Jason Richardson did it in 2002-03.

Joining Smith in contest this year will be Andre Iguodala of the Philadelphia 76ers, New York Knicks 5-foot-9 guard Nate Robinson and Hakim Warrick of the Memphis Grizzlies.

Judges for the event, scheduled for Feb. 18 in Houston, all have ties to the Houston Rockets. Clyde Drexler, Moses Malone, Elvin Hayes and Kenny Smith were all stars for the team and former coach Rudy Tomjanovich led the Rockets to two NBA titles.

The winner will receive $35,000, the runner-up gets $22,500 and the third and fourth finishers get $16,125 each.

Then do us all a favor and stop clicking on this thread and posting on it. You hate basketball, we get it. We've been hearing you cry about it for 2 years now. No need to even read this thread.

Go cry about the Phillies or something.

If Iggy loses the dunk contest, I'll be blaming it on Korver.

MDS · January 31, 2006, 02:58:22 PM

I hate hockey, not basketball. I don't really think its that big of a deal that Igs is gonna be in the dunk contest. Not shocking that you took it the wrong way, its what you do. Over react to things. On message boards.
