Anyone want to talk matchups

Miller>Rondo
Iggy=Pierce
Young<Pierce
Brand=Garnett
Dally< Perkins

Bench 

Smith, Evans, L Will, Speights, and? < Davis, Brown?, Posey?, Allen.

Maybe we need to add some parts

Miller>Rondo, Iggy<Pierce, Thad=Allen (Allen's a better 3 point shooter but a sieve on defense), Brand<Garnett, Dalembert=Perkins, and we can't compare benches yet.

Can one of you guys break it down when he's done. I can't seem to get it

Said of the three teams the 76ers have the inside track. Because of the Carney trade. That speaks volumes. Stranger things have happened in the NBA though like Kobe to Clippers several years ago that feel apart at the last mionute. Hollinger says there will be an answer by tomorrow for sure. rest of FA's is waiting on Brand.

Um..wow.  I disagree big time. 

I was a Thad fan long before most, but he's nowhere near Allen's level currently, and can't be expected to be there this year.  Allen's also not a sieve on defense.  He actually moves his feet quite well defensively.  He's not a great defender, but he's not a sieve either.

I agree on Allen's ability, Dbods, but I feel he's made himself fairly one dimensional over the years and left a lot of talent on the bench to become a jumpshooter. No disrespect...he's a GREAT shooter, but I feel his career could have been more impactful.

i agree 100% JBS.  It's really great to hear another team in complete agony on their radio station.  Is that wrong?  Don't care.  Ed, bring me shooters!

Ric Bucher makes it sound like the clippers were trying to play brand and it really pissed him off.  He makes it sound like it's almost game set and match sixers...

so just an update the Clipps offered EB whatever they were offering.  They said they couldn't offer anymore. We ponyed up more cash w/ the carney trade and they changed their tune saying they had more cash to offer E.B.  Elton is now pissed because of that.  Also Faulk has a supposed long standing feud w/ the clippers over not drafting mike bibby a while back.
