Will the Sixers lose in 5 or 6 games?

What do you think? I think they will lose in 5 games. Iguodala is holding them back and needs to be traded in the offseason. He has proven to be a choker in big games.

wow ... its igoudala's first playoff's ever.... they are outmatched at almost every position... i highly doubt philly losing this in 5 games makes it igoudala's fault... philly is lucky to be getting this experience at all this year... trading iggy is not the step philly should take any time in the near future

Iguodala played against this same Detroit team back in 2005. So its his second playoffs.

Carlos, are you a pistons fan?

my mistake... but the kid is still pretty young .... with an equally young team... get the man someone else who can score on his team and then see what they can do... philly just doesnt have any shooters to spread the floor for him so he can create... i dont know that iggy will ever be a #1 option for a great team... but make him a #2 option and he could be very valuable.....

Hell no. I'm a die-hard sixers fan and I really think "iggy" needs to go. Him and Willie Green are just horrible. The only player on our roster worth anything is Thad Young. This is his first playoffs and he has come up bigger than Iggy. Whats even weirder is he has no plays being run for him while Iggy does.

Oh ok. Well I'm a Rockets fan. We'll take Iggy from ya and help you out.. Sayyy.... Bobby Jackson's expiring and steve francis expiring? Iggy got his extension already right?

Yes I think they will. Detroit is pissed off right now and when they are pissed off they play their best. I don't see Detroit letting up at all.

I say 5. There's no way they can stop Howard. Dwight will foul out Dalambert in 10 minutes.

Dwight's so monstrous he gets credit for things he's not even involved in...the whole league is shook...

They will win atleast 1 game at home, so in 6.

(But this thread will become legendary if the Sixers win the series in 6 or 7... LOL)

I say 5 unless the Pistons play horrible in the 4th quarter again like game 1.

Iguodala doesn't need to be traded unless he wants max money. He will never be a #1 option or a superstar I don't think. He will still be a good 2nd or 3rd option on a good team. Right now he's being used as a #1 option with not much talent arround him. Once he gets talent and becomes the #2, he will be fine.

Wasnt there a rumour that Suns offered Barbosa, ATL pick, Diaw and filler for Iggy and Dalembert.

Well, if some fans want Iggy out, I can understand the frustration. He is a very good player but not suited for the no.1 option. Thadeus Young is a stud also, Miller is a keeper since he is an under rated point guard.. very good point.. and its rare these days.. well... rare in terms of getting one via FA or trade....

I'll still do the Barbosa, ATL pick, Diaw and filler for Iggy and Dalembert.

Maybe the Sixers will agree with it this time around, since Thad has shown to be a potential star.

Are you kidding me? The Sixers winning 2 out of 7 games is already impressive. I think the whole country still has the Pistons in 6.

Feel free to send iggy to washington. Why would you trade him he is an ideal #2 player for a team.
