    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BigMo763 @ May 14 2006, 01:03 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>John Salmons needs to go, but I'm hoping Cheeks will give Louis Williams some minutes next season. I think the kid has the potential to be a solid starting point guard in this league, especially when Iverson is out of town or he retires (whichever comes first). Louis has the potential to be a Gilbert Arenas type player... but not nearly as good. I'm desperately hoping for him to get minutes next season.</div>Yeah I really hope Louis gets more minutes next season. I watched him play against the Pistons when Iverson was injured, and he showed a lot of potential and confidence. I was really impressed w/ him. I think he can become a decent player if philly gives him decent minutes.

    ^^Yeah, i also think Louis Williams has potential but only time will tell. I love Iverson, but trading him might be the best thing for him and the team, although he wants to stay in Philly. I personally wouldn't think Ricky Davis would improve what the Sixers already have.

    I dont think they should trade Iverson away. I think if they are going to trade anyone away, why not trade Weber away? I think Iverson is more of a valuable player then Weber.Besides, when ever i hear the 76ers, i automatically think of Iverson.

The t-wolves have no interest in either player especially starbury because hes just becoming team cancer.

    I would never trade AI seeing as how I'm not going to get equal value from him.

They want some goos young prospects and draft picks for the future. This Ricky Davis trade rumore is BS though because the Sixers have the most depth at the SF/SG area. They need either a PG or C.

    What depth do we have at the SG/SF area? The only two legit players we have at that position right now are Iguodala and Korver. Salmons is horrible, inconsistent, indecisive and a ballhog. Barnes is a decent defender, and nice energy guy, but he barely cracked the rotation under Cheeks. Willie Green could quite possibly be a nice addition, but he didn't play enough and wasn't 100% this past season when he came back. I've read in a lot of articles that the Sixers have "depth" at those two positions, but I just can't see it.If anything, we have little depth at every position right now... well, atleast that's the way I look at it considering most of our bench sucks.

    Compared to our other positions, I agree that we have more depth in that area, but we aren't really that deep at the SG/SF spot anyway, so that is really misleading.

    I could see like marcus banks, ricky davis, first rounder, and cash for Iverson....straight up ricky for AI doesn't work out money wise

    I'd love to have Banks and Davis here, but I would also try to pry Griffen and/or Hassel away from Minnesota.

    Why would the 76ers do this? This doesn't make much sense. [​IMG]

    I don't think this would happen. It doesn't make any sense. Why would the 76ers give up their star? They should keep Iverson and continue building with him being the #1 scoring threat on their team.

    I think it's the best thing that can happen out of all the trade rumers so far. We can do..........Iverson For: Davis, Hassell, Griffen, and the 6th pick. Or something like that.This is better then the Denver trade rumer we were going to do before the trade dead line. And also better then the ATL rumer.AI can go play with KG for a chance at a title. 2 guys that deserve a title the most can try to win it together. And we get Davis who scores, and makes assists. Griffen who is a shot blocker, and Hassell who can play D. And also the 6th pick were we can draft Rudy Gay, or Randy Foye.
