Yeah, it's back, Into the Action, this time with the 76ers.
ROSTER: 50 Lavoy Allen C-F 6-9 225 02/04/1989 Temple/USA 1 Tony Battie (FA) C 6-11 240 02/11/1976 Texas Tech/USA 14 Craig Brackins (FA) F 6-10 230 10/09/1987 Iowa State/USA 2 54 Kwame Brown C 6-11 270 03/10/1982 Glynn Academy HS (GA)/USA 11 33 Andrew Bynum C 7-0 285 10/27/1987 St. Joseph HS (NJ)/USA 7 00 Spencer Hawes C 7-1 245 04/28/1988 Washington/USA 5 11 Jrue Holiday G 6-4 180 06/12/1990 UCLA/USA 3 7 Royal Ivey G 6-4 215 12/20/1981 Texas/USA 8 5 Arnett Moultrie F 6-10 230 11/18/1990 Mississippi State/USA R 23 Jason Richardson G 6-6 225 01/20/1981 Michigan State/USA 11 25 Xavier Silas (FA) G 6-5 205 01/22/1988 Northern Illinois/USA 1 12 Evan Turner G-F 6-7 205 10/27/1988 Ohio State/USA 2 Darryl Watkins (FA) C 6-11 258 11/08/1984 Syracuse/USA 2 18 Maalik Wayns G 6-1 195 05/02/1991 Villanova/USA R 4 Dorell Wright F-G 6-9 205 12/02/1985 South Kent Prep HS (Lawndale, CA)/USA 8 21 Thaddeus Young F 6-8 220 06/21/1988 Georgia Tech/USA 5 1 Nick Young G 6-7 210 06/01/1985 USC/USA 5
Where to start, 76ers coached by a very good coach and an amazing contributor to this organization. But let's get back to coaching and the goals of the 76ers. Yes they've lost Iggy (salute :scal2: ), but they have a dominant big force in the middle in Andrew Bynum. The offensive firepower on this team is pretty good. With Bynum in the middle and coach Hrvoje's love of big men and passing it to the post (Bogut, LMA etc.), Bynum will be a potential 18 and 7 player and into MVP consideration. Bynum will be a post beast for sure and no team on the East has that size to guard him. The only problem is, will the other contribute? Turner, Holiday, Young & Young < these guys need to contrbute if the Sixers want to go through the elite of the East (Miami, Boston, Chicago). They are for sure a top 4 team in the East with Hrvoje as coach and they have the firepower to do it. The bench isn't that strong like the best teams in the East, but with the versatility of Thad Young and Evan Turner the Sixers will be fine. Maybe the championship is a big bite for them, but it's worth giving a try already in the 1st season since they have a great big man and a good starting line up.
Fab 5: G Holiday G Young F Turner F Young C Bynum
Player to Watch: Andrew Bynum

top 4 seed is a realistic goal for Philly but that is asking a lot.
You cut out a great part of Doug's speech at the beginning ffs.
Doug Collins = great motivator

I'll be lucky if I finish 7th in S1. Other than Bynum most or the key guys are still way to young (no pun intended Thaddeus) and it will take a couple of seasons until they reach their 80's. The bench lineup is not that bad. ET - Nick Young - Dorrell Wright - T. Young - Hawes.
Excellent video.

ET and Thad on bench?
Which is your starting lineup then? Will you trade some players?

Jrue, JRich, ET, Hawes, Bynum, and then the 2nd unit keeps ET at pg, Young, Wright, Young, and Hawes as center. I doubt I need more than 8 players. Moultrie, if not rated terribly as 9th. I'll trade for another PG if fixed speed makes it impossible for ET to play point. #Duhon

Oh, Jrich huh, he can shoot for sure, but 2K will make him dunk like young JRich IMO...Duhon will get his spot in the MVP race for sure...
As an honorable mention since the trophy is named after him...

Lavoy Allen played pretty well last year, I hope 2K makes him serviceable.
Philly could be lethal from long range with Richardson, Wright and Nick Young. No more 6ft range jokes

Lavoy and Kwame will be waived because when you cut guys that have 1+1(PO) deals, their second year doesn't count against salary cap because they didn't excerise their option. I'm not sure if that is a legit rule but that's the case in 2K since 2K10.

Lavoy Allen might be the only big guy during the playoffs who gave KG any trouble.
I hate him because he took Craig Brackins job but he's a nice player.

Lavoy Allen did great v KG in the playoffs but 2k will give him shit ratings, he's better than Whores and Kwame put together. I'd pick him up just for the lulz
