NBADrafts, 6ers Team Needs

(PF, C, PG depth).
The Chris Webber trade was supposed to put the 76ers over the hump in the Atlantic Division. Webber was supposed to be the best teammate Allen Iverson had ever played with. Well...it hasn’t quite worked out like that, yet. Last season, Webber was noticeably hobbling and showed little of what made him a perennial All-Star. If he doesn’t heal up effectively, the Sixers will be desperate for more front-court help. Samuel Dalembert is sure to be one of the league’s most sought-after free agents, but Philly is hoping to retain him. Even with Dalembert and Webber, the Sixers still need another hard-nosed rebounder and post defender. Philly is already well over the salary cap, and they currently have no first round draft picks. Their lone pick (#45), could be used to draft troubled, but talented Maryland point guard John Gilchrist. He’s a physical marvel who would complement Iverson nicely. On the bright side, Iverson had one of his best seasons last year and rookie Andre Iguodala is an absolute stud. With a couple of savvy front-office moves and the return of the real C-Webb, new head coach Mo Cheeks could make a big splash in his highly-anticipated Philly return.
