stuff your hats and Sixers jerseys in a nice big tupperware bin under your bed and prepare for 2010 gentleman, you wont be needing them for a while

welcome to two years ago and the day they traded for webber

I think the org and the city has some bigger expectations when they were able to pick up a 20/10 guy to compliment Iverson. It wasnt until we realized that he was Terry Fox and Dalembert really is Shawn Bradleys cousin

I think the org and the city has some bigger expectations

the organization and city are stupid then

webber couldnt move when he was on sacramento and was only going to get worse...everyone on earth knew this except for apparently the sixers...

webber as you say was a 20/10 guy and loved everything about sacramento...with that being the case why you think the kings were willing to take pure garbage in return for him

King said the knee had been a concern but "we did a lot of homework on it and we felt comfortable with it."

well blame the trade on the Philly doctors then

anytime you have a chance to add an all-star with an all-star you do it, and webber still shows the 20/10 numbers, but the Sixers lack of D and cast of players are pathetic. things could be alot better if there were others who had an inch of consistent contribution. I dont blame Webber entirely, as his efforts are only 1/4th of the problem

Magical_Retard · July 27, 2006, 10:08:21 PM

webber contributed on offense just fine i believe..its the D that is horrible. dalembert is not the force in the middle we need to block shots and rebound.

we need defensive help bad.

I've just about had it with Webber and his 5/16 shooting nights. He's a disgrace.

Rome · July 27, 2006, 10:33:25 PM

Webber is the softest 20/10 player in the history of basketball.

He wasn't worth a warm bucket of piss then and the Kings had to be laughing their balls off at the fact that they conned the Sixers into taking his useless ass off their hands.

reese125 · July 28, 2006, 12:41:52 AM

ridiculous statements made by you and Bunkley. when you get 20/10 just about every night, your doing your job--not his earlier days but close enough. Now that the Sixers have been sucking ass, its easy to voice your displeasure on one person--especially him since he was traded to help the Sixers.

"worst in the history of basketball"--cmon Rome, please. What do you want him do--tie a red cape around his neck and fly to the basket? Yell at King, Cheeks and the other scrubs they put together

The BIGSTUD · July 28, 2006, 01:36:00 AM

He's not doing his job when he has the shooting % of a 2 guard and is an awful defender.

King said the knee had been a concern but "we did a lot of homework on it and we felt comfortable with it."

homework in this case would have meant that they actually watch webber play

this is what i wrote on the eagle board the day of the deal....

im supposed to get hype about chris webber?...a trillionaire 4th quarter bed shteinter....tell him to wear electric socks....defrost those cold feet....what a mammas boy r&b chump...a la vince carter...still looking over his shoulder looking for oakley....so he doest get the oz treatment

webber should play in a skirt....we could of used him on the last drive of the super bowl to call time out...dook is finished done cant play anymore and on top of that is a chump

iverson and webber hanging out is a effin sit com....i can just see it now....4 am....iverson all ignorant off a bottle of vodka and about 20 rails the size of a tee ball bat...yelling at his "uncle" for rolling blunts too slow....busting on webbers euro fag shoes and rick james pants....calling him a bitch because he has to wait until 9 am to call for his mom's approval for a tattoo....throwing webbers best of aaron hall cd out on chestnut street...smacking him with his dick....and asking him why they always called plays for divac with 3 minutes left vs the lakers

worst deal ever

PoopyfaceMcGee · July 28, 2006, 09:57:32 AM

I just watched an interview with BK on CSN Philly. I want to throttle him.

Basically, he is totally trying to sell that bringing back the same players yet asking them nicely to play better defense is going to make this team competitive.

Launch Billy King into the sun.

reese125 · July 28, 2006, 10:06:43 AM

sounds to me like your were angry at Chris Webber before any of this happened IGY.. You a Michigan fan guy?

ice grillin you · July 28, 2006, 10:12:59 AM

i wasnt angry at him till the sixers traded for him and his atrocious contract....he was a dead soldier and youve seen that since hes been here

reese125 · July 28, 2006, 10:23:29 AM

yeah hes got lateral movement problems because of the knee, but my original point was and is that hes not even close to the problem with this team.

the guy still delivers numbers consistently bottom line, and thats what King was looking for when they got him. Hes not Ben Wallace, never has been, never will so i dont know what you want from they guy

The BIGSTUD · July 28, 2006, 03:19:17 PM

He doesn't deliver numbers consistently. One night he'll shoot 5/16 and the next he'll go 9/17.

Sometimes he even goes 6/23. This is a frickin power forward going 6/23. The sad thing is, he'll only shoot around 50% 1 game out of every 5 or so. He's very inconsistent. His jumpshot is inconsistent, and his effort is inconsistent. The only thing consistent about him is his defense, which is consistently bad.
