LMAO.


I pretty sure they're like most sensible people and stopped taking you seriously like a month ago.

agree with kobe but Mj's turnaround fade is what did the trick imo. his step back was just another move in an already gaudy offensive arsenal


Agreed. Main point is he drove less and scored with less effort as he got better. MJ was unstoppable.

aren't the sixers in 7th place now, with real chances of making the playoffs?

J. Rich went to the playoffs last season...Give it up, my original point stands. You have that mans name as a part of your username, that is sooo knob slobberish. :lol:

if your talking about leading, j. rich didn't do much of it last year. That was a b.diddy production. J. rich had slipped to 3rd option sometimes 4th.

no, iggy clearly wouldn't have been the 1st option on that team but part of this "argument" was the term lead. simply typing lmao and pondering iggy's role on that team instead of arguing the point is asinine.

Your right underpressure. I'm usually never say a word to the guy but sometimes his logic is so flawed and circular you have to cry out bullsh*t.

I never brought up "lead", some other poster brought that in here. My statement involved Iggy NOT being a better player than J. Rich at the same age...J Rich played better going into his contract year than Iggy currently is doing...Iggy IS NOT leading the Sixers. Andre Miller is the cog that makes this thing work.

If Iggy was to get a raise from the original 6 yr/$57 million dollar deal, I'm not sure that Eddie will give him more than an additional $3-4 million....


It'll also depend on whether or not he'll be involved in a S&T scenario.

Bit off-topic, but do you guys think that Iggy currently has more value than Thad?

I'd say they're pretty close given Thad's performance and upside combined with Iggy's underachievement in the eyes of some guys in the league. Though if Iggy's jumpshot continues to drop, he could be changing some minds a bit going into FA this Summer

Iguodala probably has more trade value since he has established what he can do- but he also would have less suitors given he is up for a new contract.
