Philadelphia 76ers

[benno87]

Who here follows the 76ers? I have ESPN and will follow closely via internet this season.

Just some topics I thought would be great to discuss;

- The enw website (www.sixers.com) looks absolutly outstanding. Best sports website around.

- Our draftees Kyle Korver and Willie Green. Green looks like a great 2nd SG option for when Iverson goes down, and to play 20 minutes a game, can nail an outside jumper if need be, scores in bursts. Korver was the drafts best 3 point shooter, both second round picks. I cannot wait to see this Ashton Kutcher look alike nailing his 40% Trey line as he did in NCAA.

- Kenny Thomas, injured all pre-season, his rebounding defensivley was underrated, almost ave 10rpg when he joined Philadelphia in 02-03.

Anyone else here follow the sixers?

Sixer hater here

Agree on Kenny Thomas though, the guy's a quality roleplayer.

I really rate Eric Snow. Gets no limelight due to sharing the backcourt with AI, but he does all the hard things such as dive for loose balls, dishs the ball around and can also hit the occasional 3-ball.

Former Spur, Amal "The Predator" McCaskill might be able to get some good minutes. Hope so.

As for the Sixers website - I don't see any particular aspect that makes it that good.

Love Kenny Thomas and Eric Snow....both are quality role players and both will be just as important as the Big Dog and AI for the Sixers this year. Still dont see them going far in the playoffs though.
