• Commented on Punish the Feel-Good Bobcats
  Well everyone plays poorly for stretches, including Jrue and Iggy, the heroes of the Sixer blogosphere. Evan's points and rebound averages, considering his minutes and number of shots, were fairly solid his first two years. He just didn't play or...
• Commented on Punish the Feel-Good Bobcats
  In my opinion he would have done this his rookie year had he been given the minutes he has been given this season. For example, in tonight's game, in which he rocked again, he started 0 for 2. That would...
• Commented on Punish the Feel-Good Bobcats
  Really. Never once did I waiver from saying ET would be a star. The talent was always there, the minutes weren't. Now the minutes are there (as long as Collins doesn't revert to his old ways, which is always a...
• Commented on Punish the Feel-Good Bobcats
  Not sulking after mistakes is a direct result of Collins not yanking him for every mistake. The ET supporters said since Day 1 that Collins instant yanking of him was the main reason for his lack of production....

• Commented on Wholesale changes - Part 1
  No need to go digging around if it's a pain, but if it's easy to obtain, sure, I'd be curious. Good point about Turner being on the floor with Iggy a lot, I agree on that....
• Commented on Wholesale changes - Part 1
  Did Turner play a higher percentage of his minutes with Lou and without Brand than Iggy did? I would imagine yes, and this could certainly help explain the higher points per possession given up when Turner was on the court....
• Commented on If You're Doing It, Do It Right
  Westbrook wasn't efficient his first two seasons either. So Paul's point is actually right on, based on your response....
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  got it, thanks....
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  Thanks. Makes me wonder what goes into win share then, because their stats in their first two seasons were terrible....
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  What were the win shares, whatever on earth it means, of Chauncey Billups and Russell Westbrook their first two seasons?...
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  Or Chauncey Billups, who shot 37% from the field his first 2 years. Or Russell Westbrook, who shot 41% from the field his first 2 years (and 25% from three)...
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  There's nothing reality-based about saying Jodie Meeks should start over Evan Turner (although i believe Brian sort of abstained from that discussion, but the majority of commenters, at least for a while, wanted Meeks starting, which was a joke). There's...
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  They liked Brandan Wright, I presume he'll be back with them next year....
• Commented on Sixers Add Dorell Wright, L Williams to ATL
  The reason for this is that Brian became so virulently anti-Turner (he said he wanted to trade Turner for a second round pick) that everyone who like Turner just quit the blog. I still lurk and read, and occasionally post,...
• Commented on No Reason For Hope
  He's also the only guy player on the roster who is known primarily for defense, other than Tyson Chandler. Whatever you think of the wisdom of it, scoring is what pays the big bucks, especially for an SF. I think...

• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  I don't really care what he thinks. It's not about being thin-skinned, it's about having fun. To me, watching sports and debating sports is a fun escape from the stresses of the real world (work, life, etc.). I don't find...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  I would agree in general, that is a good point....
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  I disagree that the poll was an accurate reflection. It's Philly.com people, hardly a bastion of the intelligent. Online polls that people choose to vote in are notoriously inaccurate. The people who voted in that poll were specific people drawn...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  I've texted with the Sixer fans I know in the real world and no one thinks this is a bad deal. It's only 2 years and less money than all the other centers are getting on the market. I went...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  Due to the bullying tactics of you and others, pretty much everyone who doesn't toe the party line on this blog has left. That's why when Brian posted that Jrue should have been named first-team all NBA defense, a preposterous...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  You're equating depressedfan and libertyballers with "the fanbase." That's a mistake in my opinion. Every Sixer fan I know in the real world (i.e. not on a blog) likes Turner and wants to see him play more. Almost everyone on...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  Right, because anyone who disagrees with GoSixers is a troll. Funny how the "troll" is the person speaking positively of a Sixer player on a Sixer blog. Thank you for reminding me of why I don't bother posting here anymore....
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  Dollars are automatically limited by the salary cap. In baseball it doesn't matter how much you spend on an individual player. In the NBA it does. $6.5M for Hawes is a better use of money than $15M for Hibbert, in...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  Fair point. But there really are not very many centers on the market. Hawes, Hibbert, Asik, who else is out there? Hawes is the cheapest of the three. I think waiting for a competing offer would have been a bad...
• Commented on Sixers Lock Up Lavoy
  Where did I say they were the same player? I said they have nearly identical per-36 production. Hibbert is a better player, but not anywhere close to 3 times better. Hawes is a better use of limited dollars....
