    Mark Blount would be a nice addition,but would Blount or Kenny Thomas start I personally think Kenny Thomas should start but Blount would be a god off the bench.

    I also think we should go after a free agent like Spree he gives a lot of energy and can give us about 15+ points,imagine him starting a sf,and Glenn Robinson coming off the bench,I think that could work out and Glenn Robinson could maybe get 10-15 ppg off the bench.

    actually i think samuel can play pf and kenny sf and blount center and if we get another center maybe they can share the starting spot like some teams do, but spree?i think theres noway hes gonna want to join us.

    It's worth a try. He lacks mobility but he would probably take most of the opposing SF's in the paint, and out power them. He's also worked on his mid-range game during the season. During the last couple of games, he was taking those mid-range shots and surprisingly he was knocking some them down. I expect him to work on it some more in the off-season. But I would be worried about him on the defensive end, I don’t think his footwork is good enough to guard other SF's like Lewis, Artest, Jefferson etc… BTW if you haven't realized it yet, I'm reffering to Kenny Thomas. :mrgreen:

    As for Sprewell, I have mixed emotions. He's a very streaky shooter. I would consider taking him in, but I would look for someone better first. And I think the T'Wolves might want to sign him right away. [​IMG]

    I think Spree can help put up more shots but his percentile of making those shots I dont think we'll be that well. The way hes been shooting during this post season with the Timberwolves has been horrendus. Maybes hes getting old and tired. But with proper training he could be probally a lovely addition to this team.

    I think we don't need no second scorer behind AI (we have a hard time to find one too) I think we just need to blueprint 2000-01 seasons roster.Im hearing all the time that Sixers will draft Igaudola,who can't score so well but has great defense.(George Lynch comes to mind)
    Dalembert-should get a lot of minutes and showed that he can be something big in the future of 76ers.
    Thomas-a double-double player who is undersized (we would need a bigger player here off the bench,who can give the Sixers atleast 8 ppg and 5 rpg.)
    AI-No need to comment
    Eric Snow-Is a true point guard but his unability to shoot jumpshots is bringing his value down on the market like his big contract.
