NBA Basketball 2006-07: The Thread Part III

[LMP]

I have no doubt they'd be more entertaining than the current '6ers, but there's no go-to guy on that team, or areal point guard.

Maybe they can send over Stephon Marbury because he's a damn point guard! A point guard!

 

[phillyfan26]

Wally? Wally? Wally! Wally! Wally! WALLY! WALLY! WALLY! WALLY! WALLY!

 

[LMP]

Stephen A. should run the point, with Michael Wilbon on the wing.

 

[phillyfan26]

Stephen A. wishes to be paid in cheese doodles. Not Cheetos. Cheese Doodles. You know the kind.

 

[LMP]

Do you want some Cheese Doodles, Mark Jackson?

 

[Got Philk?]

Mark Jackson went to St. Johns didn't he?

 

[No spoken words]

Yes, he did. But that's the retired point guard. Marc Jackson, the Center, went to Temple.

 

[No spoken words]

Uberbeaver also went to St. John's, FYI.

 

[Got Philk?]

NSW...I assure you I know the difference b/t mark and marc when it comes to (i'm sorry mr.) Jackson...OOO

And Mark Jackson is not only the retired pg from the Pacers...but also one of my least favorite announcers on ESPN right now. I'd rather listen to...STEVEN A SMITH!!!

 

[No spoken words]

I always think of Jackson as a Knick, go figure.

Thank you for your assurance.

Aren't you "working", Philbert?

 

[Got Philk?]

Hehe...yeah. I am still working actually. But they don't make my job easy putting computer stations in every building now do they...



I kind of forgot Jackson was a Knick...When I think of New York Point Guard, I think of Derek Harper. And when I say his name...I hear Marv Albert. YES!

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

greg oden looked swell in his summer league debut

 

[Got Philk?]

Won't it be funny when Noah is ROY?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

how does one acquire ten personal fouls anyways? i'm semi impressed

i get the feeling that the rookie of the year this year will either go to durant or someone who no one's really expecting... perhaps yuengling

 

[LMP]

Al Thornton, the sleeper of this year's draft.

Al Thornton, the sleeper of this year's draft.

The Sixers are clearly trying to set the record for most 6-6 to 6-9 guys on one team.

 

[LMP]

The Sixers got Thaddeus Young, Thornton's on the Clippers w/ fellow FSU alum Sam Cassell.

I know, I'm saying they should have taken Thornton. They don't need a poor man's Andre Igoudala.

 

[LMP]

Ohhh, okay. My bad.

Thornton would've been a perfect fit with them, too.

 

[phillyfan26]

Ohhh, okay. My bad.

Thornton would've been a perfect fit with them, too.

Not only that, but every expert said, Philly at 12, get Thornton, he fits their needs, he's the best on the board. No question.

They forgot the Billy King factor, though.

 

[LMP]

Still don't get the Thabo Sefolosha-Rodney Carney trade from last year either.

 

[phillyfan26]

They're looking to get as many small forwards as humanly possible on one team:

Already:
Rodney Carney
Andre Iguodala
Bobby Jones
Kyle Korver

Plus:
Derrick Byars
Thaddeus Young

Billy King apparently hasn't noticed that we have no guards besides Andre Miller, who we will probably trade, and no big men.

 

[LMP]

You don't like Sam Dalembert or Steven Hunter?

The only reason that team works is because of Andre Miller, he's one of the few true point guards in the league.

 

[phillyfan26]

Miller's been great, and it's a damn shame he won't stick around because he's our only tradable item, and Billy probably wants to get another small forward. If I became GM today, well...

Goodbye Samuel Dalembert ...

 

[Bluer White]

The Sixers traded for Jason Smith in the draft, he's a 7 footer and pretty legit I think.

I was hoping my Lakers would take Smith at #19, and then sign a veteran PG. But they passed on him for Javaris Crittenton. Critter might be a better prospect, but I'm sure the pick didn't thrill Kobe at all. Smith probably will be able to contribute right away.

 

[LMP]

I can just see Dalembert showing up to practice and getting pepper-sprayed Andy-style one day.

I'll believe anything after seeing this:

[LMP]

He and Dwight Howard are probably best buddies.

 

[LMP]

Enter Rashard Lewis for max money (I'm still wary of this) exit Darko to the Grizzlies.

The Magic still have enough expiring contracts and Hedo Turkoglu to package a deal for a great banger inside. Marcus Camby perhaps?

 

[phillyfan26]

Bill Simmons has dubbed Lewis' contract as the worst in the history of professional sports.
