    About 2 months ago there was speculation that Antoine Walker would be shipped over to Philly to be re-united with former favorite coach Jim O'brien. I really could still see this happening.

    I hope this wouldnt happen but I have never heard of the trade before.To me he is just like a bigger Glenn Robinson,I dont think he could help the Sixers at all.

    Why would we do that. It seems to be a direct 180 from what we are doing with our team. Iggy Iverson Dally KT an Snow. That is the lineup we will have. But why would u bring in another weak D playing 3/4. LiL Dog should of got us off this idea with his horrible job last year.

    I think Walker would fit in better with the 76ers than he does with the Mavericks.

    He would fit with the Sixers but what would the sixers trade to get him. They have pretty much nothing.

    Why are they so in love with Kenny Thomas? He's an ok player, but nothing that management should be coveting. I wouldn't mind seeing Walker come over to the Sixers. Only question is how would he and AI share the ball, they both like to shoot

    I swear. Does the term "salary cap" sound familiar?

    But Vintage knowing Billy King, he is the type of guy that can work almost anything out. It's just no one really wants to come here because the area's team are practically plauged. And no one really wants to play wit AI because all the little antics and other BS. I swear I love AI but I always wondering what life would be like w/o him. Probably better.
