If getting rid of Salmons is the biggest change they make... ha!

Rajon Rondo is just not that good. I don't see what the fascination is.

you don't want an undersized pg with a drive & shoot first mentality and a questionable jump shot?

A couple of early mocks:

Draft Express and Hoops Hype = Rodney Carney
Hoops Vibe = Ronnie Brewer (undecided about declaring for draft)
NBADraft.net = Mardy Collins

Looks like most teams will have us picking a shooting guard. FYI, the first 3 mocks mentioned all had Rondo going one pick later to Utah...

If the Sixers trade AI they'll probably take Marcus Williams.

If the Sixers trade AI they'll probably average 5,000 less fans a game.

you never even heard of him till i brought him up on the board and now youre getting false information from other people on websites...pretty smart way to judge a player id say?...actually he doesnt have a shoot first mentality at all...he was criticized at kentucky for not shooting enough..he does have a weak shot right now...but so does tony parker and hes been in the league for four years...in fact there arent a whole lot of true point guards with shots in the league

what rondo does have is a lightining quick handle and a great ability to distribute the ball...hopefully the shot will come if not he will just need to learn the game and he could be a parker like point guard...but even quicker...he is the perfect first piece of the puzzle in the rebuilding of the sixers

i didn't get my false information from any website, dook...i made it up myself.

i really don't care about rondo...if he really is the next tony parker, he'd be a good pick...assuming they trade iverson.
if they keep a1, drafting a 6'1 pg doesn't make much sense, imo.

i think that would take them into negative numbers.

Ill take any PG that has a lightning quick first step and can get by the first defender--then follow that up with an assist. We need balance and flow to this offense. I'll take your word for it IGY if Rondo can learn to pull that off.

Now we need some perimeter shooting fast. Korver is not our answer--hes situational
