You take Holliday over Lawson,Teague, and Maynor

IMO the order should be Holliday, Lawson, Teague, Maynor....

We all want Sessions (me included) due to the fact that he is a good young playmaking defensive minded PG. But aren't we also pretty much in agreement that if it is to work with Iguodola at the SG and Young at the Sf, we need a PG with a 3 point shot?    Sessions does not have one.

I can see Iguodola as a PG with Stephen Curry as a SG.

Since Camby's contract is over in two years....maybe the Clippers think that they will be a frontrunner for James, Wade, Bosh, etc.....

Yeah right..... ;)

What about Kareem Rush?  You figure that Indiana will onlyl want to keep one Rush (the better one).
Don't know if he is any good but he had the reputation as a three point shooter and he will be cheap once he is released down the road.

My fear with the desire to sign Smith (for all of the cap room in particular) is if there really is a long term plan on building a championship caliber team or is he just the best player avilable that might be signed with our cap money?   
When drafting I understand the concept of drafting the best player available regardless of need but I do not think that is the way to go in free agency.  What we need is a power forward with a post up game.  We hope that Speights develops into that player but obviously that is not a given.  Josh Smith was measured at 6' 7" barefoot and 6' 8.25" in sneakers when he was measured in Chicago a couple of years ago.  He is a "finesse" power forward at best but more likely a "big" small forward.  To me that is too much like Thad.  Yes he is a good player that is only going to get better but are we putting together a fantasy team and looking for stats or a real team with complimentary players?
How are we a better all around team with him?  What is Ed's overall plan for the makeup of the team?

Here's the latest from SF.  (RealGM is getting harder to read now that a bunch of the good posters primarily post here- myself excfepted of course as someone has to pull down the curve over here.):

Well its gonna be quiet til next week as you can imagine..but what I was able to find out was....

Like I said before....we gave Josh Smith a verbal offer....we dont know what the cap number is but our offer sheet on your doorstep Wednesday will be 5 years for all our cap space.....which could be as much as 12.5 mill..or an offer sheet of 5 years 73.33 million. its basically going to be 5 years and between 67-73 million depending what the cap number is.

Brand being in Philly is just trying to drum up interest on our end....get more money..he doesnt want to leave the left coast and the Sixers know it...he will be in California.

Childress will be here Monday...however we have more interest in Maggette, but are worried he will sign for the midlevel somewhere before we have resolution on the Josh Smith issue. Ben Gordon is on our radar IFF Smith,Maggette or Childress isnt acquired. The trade talks we have had still center around Marion or Sheed...with cap space,future picks, Green, Evans, Jason Smith and Carney as the bait.

My source really doesnt think Iguodala is going anywhere unless Golden State just throws a ridiculous amount of money at him. He also doesnt see Andre Miller being traded this offseason......unless someone made a ridiculous offer. We dont like Hinrich that much......and we think we can get our PG of the future in what is expected to be a PG heavy draft.


Keep quoting SF on this forum please because now I have absolutely no reason to check out the Realgm forum at all!!
Thanks for the intelligent discussion of all things sixers here guys!!!

I just do not see Gordan as that much of an upgrade over Lou Willliams.  I see both as an 3'd guard instant offense combo guard off the bench type....
