Obviously the last ET experiment in Philly didn't end so well. They need ball handlers and a recent article suggested they might look at short term placeholder contracts.

Do we even care about losing ET? He was a big rotation guy for us...

I don't think that Philly left a great taste in ET's mouth.

When he talks about Boston, he refers to it as the only place that he has been respected and wanted (after OSU). Highly doubt that he goes back there.

ET has become my favorite C, showing tremendous growth, work ethic and loyalty. Sadly, he easily could be gone.

I just hope that neither of the NY teams get him. He would fit well with the Knicks in the triangle. My biggest concern is that the Nets get him and he leads them to mediocrity and hurts our pick-switch. (Bring on the ET hater jokes about how him being with the Nets actually helps our pick switch.)

Assuming they draft Simmons turner isn't a great fit they will need shooters at the 1,2 and 3
Mavs
Wiz
Hornet

Anyone that clowns you will regret it because ET is a player, and I hope we bring him back. He was the only one not named Isaiah Thomas who could get his own shot and get to the rim on our roster.

I agree 76ers want shooters I can see Fournier and Barnes both getting max offers by 76ers. Assuming Okafor gets dealt for Russell or Dunn you have Russell/Dunn, Fournier, Barnes, Simmons, Noel. Not a bad young group to grow together.
