I dont want anyone you mentioned. If we added a future first round pick into the mix we better get some first round material. And nobody you named is just that, first round material.

I think I'd rather try to trade for Villenuva or Chris Wilcox, or even try to steal Leon Powe from Boston, than to settle for Kristic. I'd also like to sign someone who can shoot, maybe Dooling or Pietrus. I hope Ed has something up his sleeve? I hope we are able to get Brand or Smith after giving up Carney and a future pick.

He's not terrible, but he's a poor defender overall. He gives his best in the offensive end, definitely @ 215 guy: calm down dude, LOL !! Anyway I agree with you, Telfair and Livingston (not his fault, though) aren't exactly good options... we better bring Scott Brooks back :-) @ Morty: Krstic is a below average defender to me, he’s pretty slow, lacks bulk (gets pushed pretty easily) and he’s not an intimidating factor.

Our frontline is basically a huge offensive liability with Evans and Dalembert. I'd much rather have krstic be the starting 4 on our team than Evans. Evans is more effective as a bench player anyways. If Brand doesn't pan out, krstic may provide us with a short term solution. The right price is the key word here though. We shouldn't strap ourselves in the future just so we can make a marginal improvement to our team. At the right price, I think krstic can be of much help to our team.

When I read that Quinn was the guy that came to mind. Quinn made $687,456 last season so that would be a nice raise for him.

I actually mentioned him in particular because he may be the best pg available. My point was simply that he's not exactly what I'd consider a prize FA with the type of expectations are on the Sixers this summer. Again my point was simpy that if we can't swing one of the big FA, a backup plan of Kristic and Livingston might be the next best option. As a side note, it's pretty rough to label kids three or four years out of high school as busts. If you're doing so, you probably labled Tyson Chandler a bust in Chicago, but probably wouldn't mind having him on your team at this point. It's even sillier to do so when they're pg's, as it's pretty difficult to expect an 18 year old to come out and run an NBA offense. @Joe

He makes sense and likely wouldn't be expensive. @The Duke Keyon Dooling is a solid NBA PG. Other names... Travis Diener, Dan Dickau, Jason Hart, Sergio, Ronnie Price, Luke Ridnour, Darius Washington, Dee Brown, Taurean Green, Jamont Gordon(on summer league team) @Dannie

I am sure people are going to say he sucks...but he has decent size for a point guard and would be the shooter we need as well. He isn't a breakdown the defender and dish style of PG but as a back-up I don't think that is necessary with the slashers we already have on the wing. He is more of the Steve Kerr/John Paxson style PG that can succeed when surrounded by other penetrating players. I mentioned him in my other post, just a thought.

Everything I have read about Livingston is that he has played some one on one and is now dunking again but probably still won't be cleared to compete in summer league. That 100% takes him off my list for the Sixers. Never really been a fan of Telfair. Regardless of that we have Lou Williams and to me he is better than Telfair and can get you the same 6 assist per game if he played 30mpg at the point. And Williams is a better shooter/scorer. 215 Guy way too harsh.
