In the Atlantic, what player presents the biggest mismatch to the Sixers?
If my title isn't clear, I mean what player on another team in the Atlantic has the biggest advantage when going against the Sixers? It doesn't necessarily have to be a starter, I'm just interested in what you think.

Re: In the Atlantic, what player presents the biggest mismatch to the Sixers?
Raef LaFrentz.
Dalemebert isn't effective while guarding a perimeter player.
Igoudala could shut down Carter, Pierce, etc.

He does well against Pierce, but Vince dropped 47 on him.

I didn't have a person in mind when I came up with this thread, but now that I think about it Vince Carter is a terrible matchup for Iguodala. The crazy thing was, I thought Korver did a much better job on VC than Iggy.
Also Raef Lafrentz as a mismatch? Come on now. I don't care how bad Dalembert is at defending the perimeter, it's not like he's Mutombo out there.

Re: In the Atlantic, what player presents the biggest mismatch to the Sixers?
As much as I love iggy, i think he and AI are both overrated as excellent defensive players. They are good, but not great.
I think Iggy will improve and eventually become a great defensive player. But with AI he depends so much on steals. That also puts pressure on his teammates. AI is usually a terrible matchup for us because of his height and strength, for example against pistons last season.
Anyways back to the topic, I think the player that posses the most problem for 76ers is def Carter.

Re: In the Atlantic, what player presents the biggest mismatch to the Sixers?
I don't think anyone in the Atlantic Conference is a real mismatch for us. If I had to choose a player that I would worry the most about though it would be Chris Bosh. Webber has a lot of trouble with quick face up big men like him and he will take Webber to the hole every time on an iso, I guess we could put Dalembert or Hunter on him though, but they will also have trouble keeping up with Bosh.

This is why I said Chris Bosh. Webber lacks mobility now and bringing Dalembert out to guard a perimeter big man isn't a good idea.

Re: In the Atlantic, what player presents the biggest mismatch to the Sixers?
my 1st thoughts go to tim thomas and richard jefferson .
Andre iguodala guards vince ...to mixed results but i would think RJ would be the bigger problem against kyle korver because of the athleticism gap.
tim thomas against korver because of the size difference.

Re: In the Atlantic, what player presents the biggest mismatch to the Sixers?
as far as guard mismatches? i'd say Bosh.
as far as players who will ****in try their hardest to destroy us? VC. Since we beat the Raptors he's had a chip on his shoulder in regards to the Sixers.
