Serioulsy, I'm fed up with the celtics holdin on to guys like Allen, Pietrus, etc.  I like them, but,  We need to get some young player like a lou Williams, Nick young, etc.  WE have NO ONE to replace Paul Pierce at this point!  Pierce aint gonna get it done the next two years.  Sixers are gonna be young and athletic and good in the next few years while we'll be moseying along.  

Lets not pretend Nick Young is the guy to replace Paul Pierce.

No I wouldnt go that far.  maybe im just a bit emotional becasue I really think we'd be better off with Young than Allen, and the whole thing drags its feet until now we lose Young and might lose Allen so we are left with nothin.  Seems like Danny is just being really passive thae last few trade deadlines.  Guys that we need/could help are getting traded/moved all over the place and we're doing what exactly?  Im fine if Danny bring the gang back casue i lie the addition of Terry and the young guys, but we need a few more pieces, and maybe its just that Danny has his list of what he wants and thinks will work.  I can have faith in that, but I'd really like us to get at least one young stud to compliment Rondo.  If it turns out to be Jeff Green, then I'm cool with that, but who knows.  grrrrr

I understand you want more talent but at the same time sometimes the best move is making no move.

Just look around at some of the deals being made with that attitude... Asik and Fields among others.

You have to think long term sometimes.  We are still contending and we are at the same time maintaining the ability to in a couple years blow things up or make trades as neccessary.

Agreed.  And again, a healtthy, inspired Jeff Green, will put this team right back on top.  Just felt like last year we couldnt run the way we could have becasue of the seniors getting up the floor,lol.  But, I do like what we have so far.

Jason Terry is our best aquisition recently IMO so yes I'm happy.  We will be good.

Terrific signing. Nick Young is an excellent fit for that team.

I hope they put Evan Turner back on the bench and let Young start alongside Iggy.

I think it's a great addition to Philly, Young is an excellent shooter.
