[QUOTE=Heretik32]The Sixers didn't get robbed, which would've been the case in many other trade scenarious. I really like the draft picks for 07. I'm not too sure about Andre Miller, I've never particularly liked him, but well.[/QUOTE]
The two first found picks are Denver's own and Dallas'.......what's to like? I know I know, deep draft next year etc., but they're basically upgraded secound round picks especially now that Denver has Iverson.
[QUOTE=GOBB]Translation "Damn, now Utah is gonna have to fight for this division. Melo + AI? Ugh, great!"[/QUOTE]
Yeah GOBB, that has certainly been on my mind... But it is a legitamate question whether or not Melo and AI can be effective [I]TOGETHER[/I]. Another Q: Will AI and George Karl get along for more than the typical honeymoon period? Just wondering...
[QUOTE=PleezeBelieve]:cheers:[/QUOTE]
JR is not signed next year. they'd have to shell out big money for JR, which is definitely questionable.

I think they'll be fine. AI realizes that he's been given a new lease on his NBA life and I assume he'll be on his best behavior.
Well it was great timing with Melo being out. Hopefully he can get those games cut down, because him getting 15 games is excessive considering it wasn't exactly in the crowd and just 1 punch.
Its great that they did not have to trade Nene also. Next year with Martin's D and rebounding, they're really going to be sick. I don't even think their defense will be that bad. JR is going to be the guy lost in the mix though, but only if Iverson doesn't limit his scoring and take on more of an assist role. Melo's suspension really hurts the development with AI

im pretty sure he is for one more year.
[QUOTE=geeWiz15]wow... AI for Andre Miller. sixer fans consider your franchise over. they couldn't even get Camby. :roll:
.[/QUOTE]
You do realize that they had lost 6 straight before AI requested the trade, right?
I think the Sixers come out fine. They get a veteran pg who i think will bring out the best in their young guys. Plus they get picks and cap relief. Not bad at all.
Well they certainly will be fun to watch...
Wow!! By the time Melo gets back from his vacation, the team will already be AI's. Here's hoping that AI can do what people think he can't - fit in.

I think Martin will be traded in the off season... The contracts are somewhat limiting right now... 64 million with AI, Carmelo, KMart, Nene and Camby... 5 players taking up the whole cap...
If Denver stinks during the suspensions and Philly's scouting department holds their end of the bargin Allen Iverson will not be missed in the least in the City of Brotherly Love.
Da KO King is the ultimate A.I. hater... we have to establish that first, before we consider his statements.
hehe, still my guy though.
The good thing about this trade is it is still early in the season. By mid-point, A.I. will be developing chemistry with the new system and teammates.

:oldlol: Not happening. 2 microfractures for a player who was already falling off. and THAT contract is virtually untradeable. Denver is stuck with that one...
