cLaY Wrote:was watching ESPN the other night, they started talking about what players you would build around AI.
Here's who they said, given salary cap issues and what not:
PG-Earl Watson
SG-AI
SF-James Posey
PF-Elton Brand
C-Sam Dalenbart
Thoughts?
cLaY Wrote:people seem to like how athletic Dalembert is, and with a little coaching they seem to think he could be molded into a Ben Wallace type defender.
Bringing in Brand would put a rebounding/points guy in Webber's spot (passing PF) and maybe give them a little more defense.
I think Posey sucks. He's got a good jumper, but I draw the line there. They really don't need another shooter. A guy like Eric Snow from the Finals run would be perfect.
Anyone can play PG for the Sixers.
BIRD33 Wrote:Iverson should play point because he has the ball 75% of the time anyway and should be complimented with a 3 point shooter at SG like Korver but that can play D.The problem with the sixers is the salary cap.Iverson and webber are getting paid like Kobe and shaq which is fine if they play as well as those two but Iversons the only one earning his money.That leaves the sixers with no means to sign another player besides trades.Billy King in his infinite wisdom said that Dalembert and Igudala are basically untradable so that leaves the sixers with Kevin Ollie as trade bait.King should be ashamed of himself, look at the roster he put together.Fucking Shavlick Randolph gets quality minutes.
No business being in the NBA:
Michael Bradley-Villanova fag
Steven Hunter-Phoenix really misses him
Jamal Mashburn-hasnt been in Philly since they signed him(nice move king)
Lee Nailon-got arrested for beating his wife last week.the cops came to his house and he told them his wife wasnt home.They said "Mr Nailon she's calling from your bathroom".Fucking idiot.Soon to be released with full pay.
John Salmons-pussy,Iverson hates him.Sixers cornered the market on non-shooting SG's
Kevin Ollie:I like him as 12th man not the backup PG.
Louis Williams-Hey King maybe a highschool PG isnt what this team needed.
Shavlik Randolph-has no business playing right now.
Can you believe they are above .500 with this roster?
cLaY Wrote:That could be the Charlotte Bobcats roster sans AI. They need to package a big trade with half those guys and Webber somewhere...of course thats a longshot in itself. I think Danny Ainge is the only guy who'd bite on that one.
BIRD33 Wrote:Webbers deal is an anchor.No sane GM will trade for him because he has 3 years left.Trading Igudala is the only option because you cant trade Dalembert unless you get a big name center which aint going to happen.I hate to say it but if the sixers dont make a trade soon AI will ask to be traded in the offseason.He doenst like webber and the rest of the team sucks.
I saw the Hornets are possibly staying in OK next year.Lucky you.
cLaY Wrote:That will be his last option, he doesn't want to leave. Fucker should be giving the GM/Owners a "fix it or else".
They should stay there permanently...the fans love that team. Going back to NO will crumble the franchise.
In other news...fucking Colorado No. 25 in the polls? KU ate their lunch in Boulder. They did however get 7 votes.
BIRD33 Wrote:The sixers owners are comcast so they could give a shit.Whats a good crowd in OK?Somehow I cant see them averaging 12,000 for a whole year.
KU is a quality loss for Co.Kansas has no business being in the top 25.Roy was in town this weekend watching some kids he's recruited from Oak Hill Academy playing Germantown Academy at the Palestra.Dukes got Gerald Hendersons(old Celtic) son commited who plays for GA.Duke is great.
cLaY Wrote:I know when I was there for the Pistons game it was sold out. Wasn't packed, but there weren't too many seats open.
You should see the way they're playing right now. Russell, Mario, and Brandon could be the toughest back court in teh country come the next couple games. ISU was a good test for them, they manhandled them. Texas will be a good test for them. They play on Feb 25th. I predict they'll win out the rest of their conference games, maybe lose to Texas and finish 2nd in teh Big 12.
Roy needs a 2 year guy who can score. Those private schools ooze those types of guys.
Duke can't win a championship riding 2 guys. They'll lose in the elite 8.
BIRD33 Wrote:Your not watching Duke games obviously.Mcroberts is going to be better than Shelden and he's just starting to feel comfortable.Kansas is not making the tourny.Brandon Rush is a fag like his brothers.Nova will lose to Louisville tonight ESPN 7pm.
cLaY Wrote:Duke bores me. If I wanted to watch a guy shoot all night I'd watch a Lakers game (manhandled by the Dirty D BTW)
KU will be in the tourney, we can place a bet if you'd like.
No way Louisville wins away from home, especially against a ranked opponent. Most over rated team in America.
BIRD33 Wrote:Nova almost lost to ND the other day.You would suck Reddicks dick if he was on Kansas.Duke throw more alley oops then anybody, none to Reddick.They are the most exciting team in the nation.

cLaY Wrote:HA! ACC getting 7 my ass!
K-State will not make it to the tourney. KU will. The fact that we are on voters radars is reason enough. They won't want to snub both KU and Kentucky. KU is coming around having played in the toughest preseason tourney.
BIRD33 Wrote:They wont have to snub Kansas and Kentucky just Kansas.They are horrible.The preseason was two months ago but they are just now recovering?
BIRD33 Wrote:Brandon Rush is a fag like his brothers.Nova will lose to Louisville tonight ESPN 7pm.Bobby Knight schools Self tonight, tourny hopes dashed.
