Right. Which exactly why Mo will probably start Lou Williams at the 2 and we'll all watch them go down 13-0 outta the gate again.

Hopefully Thad gets the start, but I can't see Miller chasing Rip through screens all night...maybe he'll shock us all and go with Miller/Carney/Iguodala/Young/Sam to start the game.

This is Sam's chance to rebound from the Celtics game.


Really like to see how well Thad matches up with Prince defensively....also hope that no one else gets hurt & that Lou has a big game.

I do not understand Y no love for Carney. His game is a lot better than you think. I would take Carney over any Sixer player now other than Young. Lou and both Andre's are ball hawks and they shoot WORSE than Carney........... Carney can missed three shots in a row and get pulled. The other three can miss ten in a row and not get pulled at all. Mo Cheeks Sucks........

Missing shots is not what gets a player pulled quickly from the game, it is taking shots that the coach thinks you should not be taking. It is hard for a fan to recognize those but the coach knows what they are and he has probably "hinted" to Carney what they are and why he should not take them. If Carney takes them anyway ... he better make them ... otherwise ... pulled !!

So you are saying that the three guys I mentioned have the green light to shoot wherever they like and shoot bricks. Then way to go Cheeks. That is BS

Carney sucks. I cant believe you made that statement lol. Sorry to use the Sendem arguement but Prince was a allstar and if you place Prince here instead of Iggy he would average about the same. just like if you put Iggy on the current Pistons he would average about the same as Prince. Prince doesnt need to score with Billups, Hamilton and Wallace there. He focuses all his energy on D. Just because he doesnt average what Iggy does doesnt mean he isnt as good. Points arent the guideline for how good a player is. And that argument that Iggy can take it to another level so can Pprince. Season hi is 34 and has averaged 20.4 points his last 5 games. Now, Prince is much older at almost 29 so when Iggy gets to that age he will be in his prime and will be alot better then Prince. Plus I would rather have Iggy because I think Prince is a ass.
Andre Miller is a bad 3pt shooter.

That is sig worthy.

I do not even know where to start, so I'll just leave the quote for others to digest.

Carney is what he is, a top level athlete with a low basketball IQ.

He can run the floor flawlessly, but lacks almost every fundamental skill that he should know.

Ronnie Brewer should have been a Sixer and Carney should have been a 2nd round pick...

I wonder who is better, Carney or Gerald Green? Seriously, neither have really shown much and both are extremely athletic. I'd love to take a flyer on Green with the intention of trading away either Carney or Willie Green in the case that G. Green panned out.
