Game 23 (12-14-12): Sixers (12-10) @ Pacers (11-11)

[Knowledge]

Amnestying brand was an epic mistake

Only big we had that could defend. I was on the "he is bigger loss than people think" bandwagon. That said, I don't think he is playing well in dallas. Maybe its the system, but I only checked his per game stats.

His per game stats arent totally the thing. It didnt make sense when they did it.... It made less sense after the bynum trade, and now we lavoy allen is our only remotely adequate big man.

And his reb rate is much better than anyone we have... 32nd in the league

For a brief time, yes.... But well before it happened i was saying the opposite.

I agree. We basically amnestied brand to get nick young, which was a panic move because we lost lou.

yup...no matter how Collins spins it, that's basically the obvious truth...and Kwame's 2 year deal was probably the icining on that piece of panic button pie.

LOL at everyone jumping off the bandwagon in December. We have some adversity and people ready to jump ship. Don't come back when we start winning again. I'm sure you will though like it never happened.

We are 2- 5 our last 7. And... did anyone else here realize that only TWO of our wins all season against teams with winning records.

Oh, and now how our schedule becomes difficult.

Whos jumping ship? We all watch most of the games....

Just cause theyre not playing great right now.... Are we not allowed to observe their mistakes and comment/complain about them?

Don't talk to me as if im a bandwagon fan ive been a sixers fan all my life and also just because i hold a negative opinion on the current situation of the team doesn't mean im bashing it.
I have been one of the most positive people on this forum since i joined but im not a hapless cheerleader i know when my team isnt good and im willing to critique them when that's the case. We may suck right now but im damn proud to be a fan on this franchise don't you put that stereotype on me.

There were two posters saying we won't make the playoffs and some others with doubt creeping in.
