Happy to do my part. Ratliff would be a good pickup....What's up with Smith's knee? Dannie….No problem. Happy to do my part.

Ratliff would be a good pickup….What’s up with Smith’s knee?

He's both a better version of Booth, and would be a 'nice circle comes round' story. Ratliff would be a nice addition.

Morty produced some stats (thanks) they show a pretty fair disparity in production and "efficiency" which Dave you like to talk about. For a guy who penetrates as much as he does and doesn't shoot many 3's his FG shooting is surprisingly awful. Stuckey is extremely unproven and a terrible, let me repeat TERRIBLE shooter. He is very good at penetrating, finishing (when he is under control) and getting fouled then making his free throws (which is were most of his points come from). He is a solid defender. That's it. He isn't a gifted passer, when he drives he is looking to score 100%. Dave T - I can't believe you would say something like this... <blockquote>"Rodney Stuckey is superior in every way, shape and form in almost every facet of the game to Lou Williams."</blockquote> What is your basis for this statement? A couple decent playoff games (recency effect)? Rodney Stuckey is not better than Louis Williams at all.

Play for a winner is all he should care about. @BSKI - glad you posted that I was going to add it to the post, in the comments is just fine. It seems they have a similar opinion of Orlando as I do. But I think they have Cleveland much too high. LeBron is great, but he got to a Finals in a much weaker Eastern Conference. That one-man game isn't going to do as well this season and going forward. He needs better help. Thoughts all? @suede – yes Theo plays for the minimum, he is at that stage of his career I believe right now at 35, especially having not played more than 63 games in 5-years.

If we did a comparison of last years rosters ... woah, much much worse. From 1-12 our roster should be much stronger than last year. Stuckey shot 40% from the field and 18% from 3. Potential? I could not say, but for now I'll take Lou. We can revisit later this season. Dave T:

Plus, they have both Cleveland and Detroit ahead of us, two teams I think we surpass. Anyway, at least it's a bit more respect for us. Hoopsworld has the Sixers ranked 4th in the east.

Harrison is a good shot blocker but seems to be hurt all the time. My daughter is a big Theo fan, but does he come here for the minimum, not sure.
