[color=darkblue]As the biggest UN-Elton fan, I still cannot believe his horrible numbers so far this season. He is averaging 11.8 and 5.8 per game. Has he regressed that much? If so, It's a blessing in disguise that he bailed on us![/color] |

Me neither. I think Speights could help them much more than Elton right now. I expected a much better version from Brand after the last dissapointing year but he hasn't improved.
It seems his 20-10 numbers are far behind him...Anyways I feel no sorry for him |

| ^^Yeah I think maybe later this year if he doesn't do better he'll be coming off the bench. Wow- imagine all the $ ($17 mil/year) going to a bench player??? |

| In terms of production and salary his contract would be the worst ever in the entire NBA. At least when Juwan howard got his fat contract he still put up good numbers. Im not surprised eltons numbers are down. It could be very well that he is just a bad fit with the sixers. Kinda like how I feel BD is a bad fit w/ dunleavys play style. Im more puzzled with Baron. He did not suffer season long injuries like elton but he has seen significant drop off in his scoring, fg %, etc. |

| LOL this sixers mad a huge mistake by signing brand. They could have used all of that money to get josh smith!! The guy would have fit into their run n gun system so well. They could have even gone for baron, he would have been a nice fit as well. |

Exactly dude.
It's funny how things work out. I bet those guys would love to trade him to us for Baron right about now. |

As Brand continues to improve, the Sixers keep slipping (7 straight losses thus far). Undoubtedly they miss Lou Williams and Speights. Nonetheless, it seems to be the story of Brand's career: getting 20-10, but not necessarily the win.
I'm really interested in seeing what happens when Griffin and Brand go face to face. Here's hoping they're both healthy by then... |

| It would be nice to have a healthy team against EB and the 76ers. If we do, IMHO 76ers lose big. |
