Iguodala probably cemented his spot on team USA last night.

Did any of you guys catch that game? If Andre brings that game back to the wac, he'll be back on the Philly love train in no time. Great D, worked the glass, and was selective with his offensive opportunities. Coach K described him as beautifully efficient. I think he scored 17, 6 boards and 5 assists. Dont qoute me on his scoreline, but it was somewhere in that range.
Collins went out to Vegas for the practices and game I heard. No way he trades him. Andre showed exactly the game Doug wants him to play.

im glad k and everyone else is happy with him out there but 17 6 and 5 with good defense is what he does every night in the nba....i dont see what hes doing at the usa camp as career changing

I hear ya, but alot of the rap on Andre right now is, he wont defer to others on the team. Big ego and all that. He played off the ball, and his distribution was spot on.
I've been reading through this thread. Andre is on many a shtein list. I just think some might want to re evalueate him.

thanks for the welcome PhillyPhreak54

im one of his few defenders...i just dont see how he doesnt defer to others...he passes the ball a lot and get people involved all the time...in fact there used to be quite a bit of criticism that he passed to much and didnt take charge...that was before people fully realized he didnt have a jump shot and never will and that his handle isnt good enough to take over games...now he is a ball hog who isnt a team player?...theres a large segment of sixer fans who are just going to hate him no matter what


if people would just realize that hes a very good all around player that a lot of teams would love to have but not a game changing star we could move on

Philadelphia has hired Rod Thorn to take over as team president, league sources tell Y! Ed Stefanski will stay on as GM.

[MDS]

"Mr. Snider? It's Rod, Rod Thorn. Look I just ran the Nets into the ground, we won like, 5 games last year and their owner wanted absolutely nothing to do me. Can I have a job?"

[Wilbert]

Stefanski stays on as GM. What authority will Thorn have? Just another chief in the pow wow tent.

"Mr. Snider? It's Rod, Rod Thorn. Look I just ran the Nets into the ground, we won like, 5 games last year and their owner wanted absolutely nothing to do me. Can I have a job?"

You made me laugh.

[MDS]

keep on laughing at 2 nets rejects running the sixers front office

you want something to get angry about....there it is. not jayson werth grounding into a double play in the second inning of a game in august.

[The BIGSTUD]

I don't know if I'd say Thorn ran the Nets into the ground. Their team got old and he blew it up to start over. He's been an incredibly successful executive over the years and made a small-market Nets team into an elite eastern conference team for a handful of years before Kidd left.

He's one of the better executives the NBA has had over the last 10+ years.

MDS has been on farging fire for weeks.  Too bad only black writers are allowed to interject angry opinions these days.
