Sixers offseason

[SunMo]

I never said BK was a good GM, but we can't get in a time machine and go undo his mistakes.  The team has to move forward, and the only way to do so at this point is to end the Iverson era.

but my point was we arent in this hole cause iverson is a bad player like sun mo was trying to imply as a reason for trading him

i never said or implied that.  i said the best thing for the organization is to trade him now because they are at a dead end with him.

I don't think Sun Mo is a massive BK fan either.  You two probably agree more than you think.

The Sixers don't have the worst front office in Philly, and they're about half way up or down (depending on your POV) the food chain in the NBA as a whole.  I don't know if they could do much better if they canned BK.

What I do know is that they can't build around Iverson anymore.

they cant because of the contracts but in terms of a player i still think a team can build around him.

and sun mo i said u implied it because u were bringing up his turnovers when i was saying statistically he had his best season last season and u said thats why we should trade him.

By the time the Sixers get the right pieces around AI to win a title, he's going to be at least 36. It's just going to take too long. By then if he's still the same AI he is now, then he isn't human period. He'd be something pulled from the crash site of the Roswell Incident.

It sucks, because if AI wins, I want him to win here.

I hope they don't drag this out all summer.

BK contacted the agents for Ben Wallace and Jared Jeffries.  Chicago is supposedly the leader to land Wallace though...

[MDS]

Neither would want to sign on to this mess.

[Magical_Retard]

how would this be a mess if they get wallace and keep Iverson then and trade webber or dalembert.


highly unlikely since they cant pay him what he wants and most likely he will remain in det but wallace would be the perfect player...plays D, rebounds....all the things our big men dont do. sadly sammy doesnt do anything...at least webber can score.

The word on the street is the Sixers can't be beat.

Willie Green, John Salmons and Shavlik Randolph were all made qualifying offers from the Sixers.
Each of them is now a restricted free agent, meaning the Sixers maintain a right of first refusal on offers from other NBA teams. They seem intent on retaining Green and Randolph, but the interest in Salmons may be to use him in a sign-and-trade deal. Jul. 1 - 11:15 am et

According to this site:

www.thebiglead.com

Jay Williams will be a Sixer by tomorrow. Well today technically since it's past midnight.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I hope that is true. Honestly, he may not be the same explosive guy he once was but if he can be a true dish first PG I'll be happy as shtein. Maybe that is why BK didn't address the point in the draft.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

So, they still have the same core of guys, but they added Iguodala Jr. and a guy coming off a devastating injury... and they're supposed to be top contenders?

What a farging joke... they needed to tear apart this team and rebuild.

[ice grillin you]

he may not be the same explosive guy he once was

the guy may not ever play again...he definitely will never again be explosive

[Seabiscuit36]

he definitely will never again be explosive
Other than on a motorcycle hitting a wall at 90mph.
