    A lot of Philly fans on their realgm board are on board with Webster and Blake for Andre

    That would be a great deal for them. Two good players on good contracts for their FA.

    Wow! Our starting 5 would be soooooooooo fierce for at least the next two years!

    SF: Hedo Turkoglu
    PF: Lamarcus Aldridge
    C: Greg Oden and Joel Przybilla

    You are missing the big picture. It would be fierce for longer because Batum and hopefully Bayless will be ready to step in after that. That is why bringing in older vets is the best plan of attack in my eyes.

    I'm skeptical about Bayless but you're right. They will serve us very glorified placeholder starters until the younger ones are ready to step in. Hopefully they end up as good of players as we project them to be.

    It's all smoke:

    "@SnaketheJake27 Heard both Hedo and Andre Miller in a sign-and-trade that would send Steve Blake, who played for EJordan in D.C., to Phi"

    Came from some random guy.... who posted on his site...

    Miller and Hedo would be solid. I think a lineup of

    Miller/Bayless
    Roy/Rudy
    Hedo/Batum
    Aldridge/??
    Oden/Joel

    would be a contender.

    Nope, you are wrong. This is Ric Bucher answering "SnaketheJake27"s question.

    What do you honestly think that proves about the opening post for the topic? Nothing bro. I'd love these two on the team, but it ain't happening.

    I didn't say it was going to happen. I was simply responding to your post where you said the rumor originated from some random guy. It didn't, it came from Bucher himself. Whether it actually happens or not doesn't matter.

    This puts us at 6 for our starting 5 - and while it served us well against Boston last year - I think the NBA has closed that loophole ;)

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Kidd will be our one-year bridge to Andre Miller.

    Andre Miller will be our two-year bridge to Jerryd Bayless.

    Makes perfect sense.

    And all of them are a 3 year bridge for Patty Mills?
