He has the talent but he isnt worth his contract. hes been out of shape since getting injured and just doesnt fit in with the sixers.
Those are not the reasons we are shipping out Dalembert. He is a cancer to the lockerroom and inconsistant. While Injuries were so-so he was regularly healthy throughout the year. Everyone was, which makes me wonder, how could we have this losing season? I predicted 54 wins. Of course=Mo blew with that **** on both ends of the floor.
^Cancer on the team? I dunno about that. But I agree with the word you said, inconsistant. Ya know at first I didn`t wanna trade Sammy because I thought he just had an off season and he`ll regroup. But there is no time to regroup. We have to get players that will play consistant basketball.
I’m all for trading Sammy, but it has nothing to do with his play, to me it’s more about his contract. Although, his play has been inconsistent, and his instincts for the ball are non existent. You have to remember he did not take up basketball until high school so he is still a very raw talent. I honestly blame the organization more than Sammy for his inconsistent play, and knack for picking up goal tending penalties. The 76ers are willing to invest 60 million in a player, but not willing to spend a couple thousand dollars to hire a big man coach?
I'm not 100% sold on this either. You just don't trade away 7 feet athletic centers these days with boat loads of potential. I'd pull the trigger for the right deal but at this point I don't think you can just dump him off for salary purposes. Change is good though, being the crap we saw last year.
And in order to do that, we have to blow it up. And in order to succesfully blow it up. We've got to figure out: A: How are we going to get the pieces in, to win a championship eventually B: What Style are we GOING to play. King, this doesn't mean bulid a team to beat one particular team. Pat Riley Beat Detroit, he's getting his ass kicked by the Mavericks. And C: How Long do we want it to take? It's easy to say it'll be a couple of years, before we get back at the top. But there are some real talented Gm's, that do it under 2 to 3 years. We've got the passion and pride in our team's to have an opinion on what we want in Philadelphia. The Question is: Is King commited to Philadelphia? Or does he just want to keep his job. To those who think this is a make-or-break off-season for King is a Joke. Remember Pat Clarke is lasting for 3+ decades.
