I agree with most of what hes saying. Even the part about not making the playoffs.
I think most of us is just hoping.
It is bad when you can't sign Felts for 6.5 milion a year and the mle is 5.8 thats tight as hell.

I assume this is the one to which you refer. There was no link above. I agree with just about everything he said. I am still not sure if the Okafor trade will balance out equally. I just think there is too much of a loss in point production, which really stinks since Okafor was only avg there anyway. And I think we have taken a step back this off season if for only the reason that many in our Division and the East in general really improved.

I think you guys are seriously underestimating a healthy Tyson Chandler. He says he feels better than he has felt in a long time. I'm pretty excited about this trade. We are gonna give it to Boston our first game.

No not really. I'm one of the trade's biggest supporters but I can't help but agree with ohara. Tyson has NEVER averaged over 11.8ppg while Mek has NEVER averaged below 13.2.

As far as scoring out of the Center position goes, we're going to see a drop off in point production. However, I think Tyson's overall offensive skill set will benefit our TEAM offense for the positive.

I liked the article. Are there really multiple instances of Iverson flat out stating that he wouldn't accept anything less than a starting role?

No, but there are places where he said he WANTS to start and back when he was in Detriot he said he was willing to come off the bench with decent minutes.
