I think AI is capable of leading the league in scoring and assists. He has the ability to go off for 30 and 10 any night, just look at what he averaged against the Pistons in the playoffs; 31 and 10 against one of the supposed best defensive teams in the NBA. I don't think he will lead the league in assists this year though, I simply don't think he has enough weapons. I won't be surprised if he is top three however. Fact or Fiction- Lee Nailion will average 10 points off the bench.
Fact, nailon is really phillys best option off the bench and he will get some good minutes. F or F: Salmons will improve his game/aggressiveness and be a solid contributor off the bench or find a spot on the starting lineup.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">F or F: Salmons will improve his game/aggressiveness and be a solid contributor off the bench or find a spot on the starting lineup.</div> Fact/Fiction. He will NOT be a starter, he may be if AI or Iguodala goes down with an injury. But as far as bonafied startng role on this team, don't count on it. However I do believe that he will be a key contributor off the bench. Fact or Fiction: Despite the injury bugs so far, the 76ers will be well conditioned for majority of the season.
Fact, I have no choice but to think the 76ers will stay healthy this year, but of course something will come up with somebody. Fact or Fiction, Andre Iguodala will have a 30 point scoring game this season.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Fact or Fiction, Andre Iguodala will have a 30 point scoring game this season.</div> Fact, from what I've heard, Iguodala's improved his offensive game a lot and his jumper is more consistent. There's got to be at least one night where everything goes right for him. Besides, last season his game high was twenty two points so thats not really that far off. Fact or Fiction: Salmons will resign with the Sixers.
fact. so far, he has been doing great, and if he continues, i see a long term deal coming soon. fact or fiction: sixers will sign an undrafted free agent (not counting deng gai or randolf)
I'm going to say fact, I think they have an opening for one more player, I'm not sure. I'm guessing it is James Thomas who will get the spot. Fact or Fiction: Salmons will be either most improved or 6th man of the year...or heck even both?
fact. if he keeps playing like he is in the preseason, why not? in the preseason, he's been averaging about 15-20 points a game. last season, he averaged about 3. that should make him MIP. fact or fiction: AI will have a big injurey that will sideline him more than 10 games this season
Fact: Unfortunately, I think he already has that injury. His knee problem that he currently has will affect him over the course of the season. F or F: John Salmons will earn a spot as a starter.
Fiction- Salmons is a great player, but he will be competing with Igoudala and Korver. I know for a fact that Iggy will get a starting spot and really his competition is Korver. I just think that the Sixers 3 Point threat in Korver is too valuable right now in the starting line-up. Fact/Fiction- C-Webb will average a double-double for the season?
Fact. The sky is STILL the limit for A.I. and his scoring capabilities. And with Mo Cheeks being one of the best PG to play the game, Iverson`s assist ratio should go up a little. John Salmons is on his way to a breakout career. Fact or Fiction?
He isn't talking about AI he is talking about C-Webb^ Anyway it sure looks as if John is about to have a breakout season, although he is playing well don't set your expectations to high because this is only preseason. So far though Salmons is playing exceptionaly, if he can keep this pace he will either be most improved player or maybe 6th man of the year. Fact or Fiction: AI-2 will average at least 15 points this season.
Fiction- I am thinking he will still be that main defenisive guy although his scoring will definetly imrpove. I am thinking about 13 PPG although I wouldn't be surprised if he did get 15 PPG. His shooting has surprised me in the preseason in a good way of course so he just may get there. I just think Iggy will still be our Defensive minded guy. F/F: The Sixers in 50+ games.
fact- AI suprised me last year w/ his very high scoring and assists average and I think he can do it this season too f/f- AI2 is the next Premeire Defensive specialist
