Philadelphia 76ers free-agent forward Thaddeus Young is still hopeful of re-signing with the team if he receives a fair offer. Young has a strong relationship with Sixers coach Doug Collins. The Celtics and Denver Nuggets are also interested in Young.

Make that two. Although with Jeff Green's identity crisis Thad Young is worth more now.

Thad...

Although I think we are all a bit jaded by how little Green gave us last year.

In a reduced role, Young might not give much more.

Can't see Philly valuing Jeff Green over Thaddeus Young.  Young's been more productive thus far in their careers.

PG: Chauncey Billups/Deron Williams
SG: Kobe Bryant/Eric Gordon
SF: Jimmy Butler/Danny Granger/Danilo Gallinari

If we could get Young for Green, I'd be pumped. I'd love to call my friend who is a sixers fan to talk trash.

One source explained that a solid contract offer to Young would be in the range of $28 million to $32 million over four years. The Sixers would match a contract in this range, multiple NBA sources confirmed.

If that contract value begins creeping near $38 million to $40 million and possibly even higher, the Sixers will have a difficult decision to make.

With that and our cap space in mind we can see how interested and have the possibility of signing are very different for Boston.

I actually think Youngs numbers are inflated being on such a terrible team. If young had been a third option in OKC or a backup in Boston, you really think he would be a more productive player than Green. Dont think so.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

I was a Jeff Green fan ever since he was at Georgetown. He was solid up in OKC with Durant

And Im still a fan of Jeff Green to this day.

Im not really feeling Thaddeus Young man. Im a Jeff Green guy through and through

Jeff Green for me

Young.  He doesn't look like a deer in headlights like Green does.
