And now Frank Jackson has busted his foot. Optimism waning, waning...

What the * did we do wrong?? The 76ers trusted the process and it had injurious side effects, what have we done to deserve this?

Still waiting on Dante Cunningham news...

Still waiting on Dante Cunningham news...

Or just any good news for that matter.

Tony Allen reportedly about to sign. He'll fit right in with Rondo with his poor shooting

 

[nufan]

Heard that one a while ago.
Pretty good pockup

 

[Klyntonius]

Gonna need to be able to lock down hard on d.

 

[2006_Eagles]

General feeling about the signing is pretty optimistic so I'll ride with that

By my reckoning we still have Q-Pon's 3.9 ish mil to spend too

 

[largebus]

An important read this, even if he's no longer in the team. Staph infections can be frightening things

60+ pts from Boogie and Brow, the rest of the team shoots as well as a popgun.

Can't wait for the Warriors. Can't wait.

I know it was the lakers but Jameer Nelson might be an okay signing

Plus we are also eligible for the hardship injury exception so welcome back Jordan Crawford

I'd just like to point out that we could have traded Ajinca to the Bulls for cap relief and not signed Darius Miller for $2 million.

And had Justin Holiday and Quincy Pondexter playing now instead of those two, for the same price.

This team will be the death of me.

I think my love for Boogie is even greater than my love for Davis. Desperately hoping he sticks around.

We're beginning to gel. This is just the beginning. We are going to make playoffs and make some noize.

There, I said it.

Can't remember four players on our team combining for 112 points before.

We can pretty much thank Boogie for not being in a 1-5 hole already, he's been phenomenal.

It's nice to have more than one guy capable of digging us out of the regular holes we find ourselves in for a change.

Where's Rondo?

Out for a month with a hernia.

So not far off now and sitting at 3-3.

I'm still confident we win 50 games this year with Cousins, Holiday, Rondo and Davis staying healthy.
