Terrible call
Young was obviously fouled on the last play of the ist half by Hinrich, but no call. The 76ers have to stop giving up so many trays. It's a 16 point lead, but the Bulls are lucky they are not down 25. Green made that idiotic pass to Iggy to screw us out of 2 points. Those 2 points they will never get back. Thaddeus Young is some kind of player.

Iguodala basically has his average at halftime.
He could easily go for 40, but probably won't unless the game gets closer.
And Louis Williams and Thaddeus Young both play great.
And I'm pretty sure Green is gone this year, he had a very good year, and it turned him from bad player with awful contract, to decent player with awful contract.
And I would love to see a Kyle Korver-esque trade for Willie Green.

Please tell me it didn't take you this long to wish they kept him...while Carney is playing better of late, this kid is so long and I think really is a nice defensive swing player. Wasn't that another 'I owe you' trade??

I'm no fan of Willie Green's but he doesn't have an awful contract. He has 3 years and about $10MIL left on his deal. For a guy who averages 12+ points a night, that's pretty damn good.
That said, we're not going to see a Korver-esque trade for him in that we get an expiring and a first round pick for him. With Carney emerging the 2nd half of the year, I do believe Willie will be moved if we do obtain a PF and have to shift Iguodala and Young.

As you say, the team hires professionals to work with the players on these things and so I'm sure their working on it with him if they see the same problem.
Man... I'm straight up using your material against you. In all seriousness though... you might be right but I'm not going to say "never" when talking about whether he can become a good shooter especially when his GM says that he will.
Wow ... you are sure making a mountain out of a simple observation on my part.
I never suggested I or you or anyone was going to teach him the proper way to correct his shot. I merely related an observation. If you look for it you will see it ... if you know how to shoot a basketball.
Also, I didn't say "never" I said I was not sure if he would ever become a good shooter. That is the truth ... I am not sure ...
As far as professionals hired to work with things like that I say .... Absolutely ... However, correcting a shooting technique is sometimes very difficult to accomplish ...as Shaquile O'Neal and Shawn Marion will attest to. It is often too late bye the time they reach the NBA ... They have been doing it that way for such a long time that it is almost impossible to change. So ... As I said ... I am not sure if he will ever be a good shooter ...
