    Salmons has been consistent from the pre-season until now, so it's a tough decision. I expect Pietrus to break out, but he doesn't really do much in rebounds and assists. Salmons doesn't do much either, but he does more than Pietrus. Tough decision.

    Should I drop Pietrus and pick up Salmons?

    Tough call, but I`d pick Pietrus. Just can bring the better scoring if thats what you want.

    The Sixers bench is very weak and Salmons has scored 10+ points in three consecutive games until last night. Expect trends like that to continue. I personally have him averaging 12 PPG off the bench for the Sixers. If I were your I'd take Salmons.

    Pietrus just killed me. I'm losing 5-4 right now, and came into this afternoon losing in the FT category by a small margin (.734 to .739), and he went 0-2. Andre Miller better kill it at the FT line today and/or get 3 steals for me.

    I'd take Salmons as well. Like Avery said, the Sixers bench is weak and he is the first perimeter player off of the bench for them. He should get a lot of minutes and is in a contract year, so he is motivated. So far he has looked good, I just hope he can keep it up for the entire year. He has been inconsistent the past couple of years during the regular season.
