mazinger Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 hear ye hear ye :headsetsmiley: seems like philly 76ers is among the tops in the east next season....... with a starting five composed of Dalembert , Iguodala, Miller, Young & the newly acquired ELTON BRAND plus some youngster off the bench , they can really be good. Making the playoff is without a problem ( unless some one impt got injured ) ...but are they good enough to go to the EASTERN FINALS( dont dream of getting to the FINALS yet :upside: ) ? It would'nt surprise me if they get more Free Agents to beef up their lineup.......maybe an outside shooter ? What ya think guys and gals? :goatee: Quote Link to comment
omega_jef Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 may impact pa ba si brand? Quote Link to comment
revi Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 may impact pa ba si brand? Barring injuries, Elton Brand is a force down low.. Although undersized in the low block, Brand can score, rebound and defend.. Impact? At the very least, Philly now has a go to guy in the middle.. Iggy, Thadd Young and Miller now has someone to lean to if they can't create.. With Miller's passing abilities, Brand can really flourish in Philly.. Rodney Carney, I heard, will be let go to create more cap space.. Any truth on this? Quote Link to comment
13Nails Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Damn it! Elton Brand in Philly! Sad coz' AI aint in town no more... That would have been a great combination... things are looking good for Philly. :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment
mazinger Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 rodney carney has been moved to the t'wolves.... Quote Link to comment
pajac24 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 adding brand to the line up gives more muscle inside the paint in defending and blocking the lane and can be a force to be reckon with in post up sans injuries, definitely the steal of the day...is josh smith next? hmm...let's see there was a rumor that the philly were more interested in josh smith before making drastic measures in acquiring brand, now that they have brand, it seems more that the position of no. 4 has been filled and can let go of smith, since the style and brand of play are alike of iguodala hmm....let's see since the free agency just started Quote Link to comment
wizard23 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 we just have to wait and see as brand is injury prone... at best, with the new lineup, they'll be in the playoffs semis, IMO... Quote Link to comment
munchkins and donuts Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 you got a younger and more agile Chris Webber in Elton Brand... Quote Link to comment
denimhead Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) i think this is it for the sixers .. only money they can offer is mid level exception .. looks like jj reddick might be free for the sixers to pick up .. no more big names for the sixers this year .. and a very big chance that some team can offer big money to igoudala which the sixers might not be able to match only way the sixers were able to afford brand is bec this year most if not all of AI's money is off the books .. deal wouldve never happened otherwise... hawks made it clear that they would match any offer for smith.. and atlanta has way more cap space than the sixers .. with the max of 82 mill the sixers can offer they felt that smith would just end up back in ATL ... while brand was an unrestricted free agent .. the deal would only be between brand and the sixers .. no need to get the clips involved welcome bandwaggoneeers .....

JustSmile=) Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) wahahaha.. iniwan ni Brand si B.Diddy sa Clippers.. I doubt na pipirma pa si Baron sa Clippers (correct me if may contract na sya.. hehe..) Edited July 10, 2008 by G_sKiLLz Quote Link to comment
gift_of_game Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 ^well, there has been no indication--so far, at least--from Davis' party that he's gonna walk out on the Clips.and what's more, there just won't be that kind of deal for him elsewhere. Baron Davis is an LA dude and this will be a homecoming for him more than anything. as for Philly, that's it. no more earth-shaking moves for them or at least nothing that the cap won't allow. they just need to sign Dre Iggy and this squad is ready to roll.
