and btw, it's not saying much, but nocioni is instantly their best shooter

actually hes probably like their 5th or 6th best shooter...hes a brick layer

SunMo · June 17, 2010, 02:38:40 PM

43% from the field and 38% from 3, that's not brick layage

iggy: 46% from field and 32% from 3
swee lou: 43% from field and 32% from 3
thad: 50% from field and 32% from 3
jeru: 44% from field and 39% from 3

Ford thinks this trade means they're passing on Turner and going for Favors instead (dumb), but he's been saying this ever since they got the 2nd pick. I'd be surprised if it went that way...

thats hard to believe...i didnt look at his %'s but ive seen him play a lot and all he does is bulldog his way to the basket and knock down the occasional open jumper...hes just not a shooter

how would this trade effect turner in the slightest...if you dont think turner can play the two then you trade iguodala or thad or you dont take turner...this deal has no effect on either of those scenarios

i wanna farging smash rob ellis in the face...hes keeps farging saying that he likes the trade because it was time to move the godfather then follows that up with how he had one year left on his deal

yeah, i was looking at the wrong stat line...he's 43% from field and 38% from 3

Hawes is an okay young player, I'd have rather of let Sammy's deal expire to free up some cap space rather than taking on a stiff like Nocioni. A majority of the people in the area are in favor of this move.

ice grillin you · June 17, 2010, 03:20:57 PM

thats because people are idiots and dont know anything about the trade except they dont like godfather

they only possible way you can like or validate this deal is if you think hawes is going to be a good starting center in the nba...i just havent seen enough of him to make a determination...im guessing the answer is no because you dont just give away good young centers in this league

The BIGSTUD · June 17, 2010, 03:21:33 PM

I think this is a Doug Collins move. I got a hunch from his presser that he wasn't a Sammy fan at all and probably asked for a young center to develop.

My old room mate lives in the Bay area, he roots for the Lakers, but watches the Warriors and Kings and roots for them when its convenient. I asked him about Hawes and he said he's alright. Nothing special. And you're right, people just wanted Sammy gone. That mindset was fine 3 years ago but now that his deals almost up it makes no sense taking on more salary. I think it's time for Ed to go.

Seabiscuit36 · June 17, 2010, 03:38:27 PM

I thought Ed was great because he's a philly guy who loves talking to 610?

SunMo · June 17, 2010, 03:45:31 PM

i like this deal because it shakes the team up, i know that Dalembert had an expiring contract, so that makes it imperative that Hawes becomes some sort of contributor.

i understand what you guys are saying about the cap space, but that value might have been minimized because of how far over the cap they are or would be at the end of the year. his contract might not have cleared as much as we thought it would.

ice grillin you · June 17, 2010, 03:57:16 PM

no one knows what the cap is going to be in 2011...a good guestimate is 55-60 mil

before this trade sixers would have had a minimum payroll of approx 35 mil

now it will be at least 46 mil

the big year to look forward to is the summer of 2013 when right now they have zero players under contract

Drunkmasterflex · June 17, 2010, 04:27:22 PM

I can't stand Dalembert but christ this is a stupid trade....one year left for some garbage.

SD · June 17, 2010, 04:30:32 PM

I wouldn't call Hawes garbage, but he's not a future star either. Honestly, I hope Iggy's out the door next, and they go into full on rebuild mode. Let the young guys develop, wait till Brands contract comes off the books, and sign a guy then. It's not like attendance is going to suffer.
