Give Elton Brand a couple of games playing the 5 and let us see how the Sixers do. Then perhaps that three way deal could work and the team can certainly clear some cap space, as well as give you some extra depth.

Anyway, GO SIXERS AND GO EB!!

Great game by Brand. Rough outing for Thad.

Lots of small ball. They are barely beating the worst teams in the league, but they are beating them. I guess that’s a good thing (or maybe not.)

More than getting his 20 and 10, the physicalness and energy Elton brings on the defensive end is SO important for this group.Maybe there is hope between he,Iggy,Jrue and Rodney for this group to defend above average at least.

Wow…Elton Brand NICE on ball defense on that last play!!! He bullied (was it Diaw?) right out of the paint, using brute strength to shove him out in an awkward spot on the floor, and used his length to keep an arm up in the passing lane, resulting in a deflection that won the game.

Let’s hope this adds to Brand’s confidence and that he can build on this going forward.

Great to get Brand playing well. But this team is still pretty terrible whether they win or lose and that is a big issue.

Guess we don’t need a set play. Not a good win. Actually a very lucky win.

One thing to keep an eye on moving forward. How many minutes did Sammy get in the 2nd half? I don’t remember him even entering the game past the 2nd quarter.

thank god the bobcats are terrible, those last two possessions were absolute trash.

On a GREAT NOTE, not even a good note, Elton played extremely well tonight, blocking shots and hustling hard. He’s been showing some improvement lately, hopefully he keeps it up!

wtf was that shit they just did after Lou's lay-up? I really just don't like this team or the players on it.

Don't they know they are playing the Bobcats and struggling and are a .500 team?

This team is still far to immature for my taste

Anyone else besides me that would have bet their life Iguodala would have botched the last second layup if he didn’t pass that off to Lou? Whew. We got lucky and bailed out.

On the other end, the Bobcat’s Felton missed a WIDE OPEN Gerald Wallace who made a nice backdoor cut into the paint. If Felton had hit him, Bobcats would be up.
