great points, but just to let you know they will have nick young play the shooting guard position to back up turner and get some scoring off the bench instead of having him play small forward… considering it is DC he will want to start off each game strong on defense, hence he will start turner

Watching Jodie Meeks play for 85% of the season in the starting lineup was really frustrating.

Once again 6ers have the players but DC doesn’t play them. Hawes has a bad 1st step,Allen & vucevic need more playing time . Leave holiday & turner up top but let turner handle the rock ,plays better with ball in hand.we don’t need brown to shoot & use young A.I start. Your bench is good enough when it’s time for your starters to rest. If these guys don’t get burn Philly will once again make good talent want to go elsewhere by not playing them.

Allen won’t start because as he’s proven on numerous stops, Collins has no idea how to run a rotation, and falls in love with guys that have no reason to fall in love with them.

Kwame Brown! Stern and him must be buddies, cause this guy is always getting picked up. He’ll definitely make the hall of fame for the wrong reason! Just on of a few bad choices made by the great mj!

As of today, this team has regressed. Nick Young and Dorell Wright both play the same position as your best player (Iggy) and your lottery pick who needs to get as much burn as possible (Turner). I guess they could start Nick to add some 3 PT depth and have Turner back up the 1 and 2; I am not sure that would be as effective as Lou last year.

Finally, even his advanced age, I’d take Elton Brand (who I am not a fan of at this stage) over Kwame Brown 10/10 times. Unless they plan to move someone to eliminate that logjam @ the 2/3 (I’d love to move Iggy for a 4 and start Thad @ the 3), this team will struggle.

If they are stuck with this roster, It would be interesting to see Vucevic and Thad get some pre-season burn @ the 4/5. Though Thad is a bit undersized for the 4 (he plays there frequently) and Vuce is young and raw, they have to have more upside than stinking Kwame Brown…

DC is truly frustrating as a sixers fan. Let this team grow, and promote players with higher ceilings like Lavoy. Enough of this crap with known commodities and glue guys.

Temple boy lavoy I really like him and he’s a decent complement player. Will be a starter for a good amount years in his career.

Might not be the most talented guy in the league but this kid is tough and has balls. Doesn’t shy away from big moments or get intimidated. Making Temple proud.
