Even with Williams and Brand they really aren't really that good, and without them they will be even more mediocre. Brand now has a chance to 1) get all his money and 2) pick a title contending team to join where he has a chance of doing more than a 1st or 2nd round exit.

If no one picks up I can see lakers. They can ship out more pieces for Howard. Ditto Brooklyn, plus nets want 47 man roster

Re: 76ers to amnesty Elton Brand
Based on how this went last time, it'll be whoever Stern whispers the top bid to that wins it.

Re: 76ers to amnesty Elton Brand
Not surprising.
Expect the Spurs bid on Brand once he goes on waivers.
They've purposely not made any moves to stay under the salary cap for the moment.
