Even if Elton Brand comes back and plays at his highest level, we are not a championship team - maybe a first round playoff team as the East is getting stronger. We need to invest in some very hard nose defensive minded players. This will get us back the fastest and this is what wins championships. So while I am hopeful that Brand makes a full recovery and can lead the franchise - this is just one piece of the puzzle.

He has good range, great form and decent size at 6′5. He shot 42.1% on 5 attempts per game for his career at Georgia Tech. Last season shot a blistering 44.8% on 5.6 attempts. He apparently signed to play in Ukraine as a fall back plan if he isn’t picked up by an NBA club this summer. - Who Should the Sixers Sharpshooter Be?

How in the world can Willie Green be on this team. If Donyell has anything left with him and Rush we are good to go. Sixers sign Donyell Marshall. How in the world can Willie Green be on this team.

Martin is a great three point gunner and a prototypical shooting guard. This would let Young start at small forward. Imagine: PG- Andre Miller- 15- 17 ppg SG- Kevin Martin- 25- 300 ppg SF- Thaddeus Young- 15-20 ppg PF- Elton Brand- 20-25 ppg C- Samuel Dalembert- 10-15 ppg And from the bench LouWill giving us an easy 15 ppg and Speights. How bout that for next season. Finals, I think yes! I think the Sixers should sign and trade Iggy and willie green to Sacrament for Kevin Martin.

He was MVP of the Rocky Mountain Revue Summer League and was then signed by the Warriors. I told you guys Morrow was an NBA shooter and as an undrafted player to get signed to a contract before training camp is a testament to how good he is. Looks like Luke Jackson played well also, and could be a shooter option for the Sixers if they were to look that way. Anthony Morrow is now crossed off the list.

Moving on, agree, they gave up early on Bell due to Larry's aversion to youngsters. Anthony Parker too. Mario Ellie, forget who coached him here. Your last idea certainly has merit to consider. I agree that Iguodala can improve, and probably will. Dre, On your first suggestion: done. Moving on, agree, they gave up early on Bell due to Larry’s aversion to youngsters. Anthony Parker too.

I still wouldn't trade him unless we had no other choice. I feel the Sixers' have given up on young talent too early in the past, Tim Thomas, Larry Hughes, Raja Bell to name a few (I know Larry Brown had something to do with it). Why give up on a player that's still getting better. He has yet to hit a plateau (like Sammy has). jjg –

Currently there is a cap hold of $9 million for Iguodala. If he takes the tender offer ($3.8 million I think I heard) and becomes unrestricted next year, does that mean we would have cap room to sign a player?? I think it is similar with WIlliams, who has a $3 million cap hold. Since there seems to be some extensive cap knowledge here, I have a question.
