The Sixers are going nowhere until AI and Webber retire or are traded.

On paper there is no doubt they would improve. But in reality it's not quite the case.

I would'nt mind AI being traded at this point. I could care less about CWebb, but the Sixers need to retool fast.

I don't get how they're improving though. Why the hell would King want to shop Samuel with that useless Steven Hunter? Isn't Webber a FA this year? Let him go and build a team around AI. Korver would be a great 6th man but he isn't a starter. Igoudala is great. Draft a pass first pg and move AI to to shooting guard. Then sign some rotational bench players like Gooden, Harpring etc.. or trade Korver or Hunter for one. Build a defensive squad like the Finals one and run the offense through AI.

AI can no longer run the 2 on a consistant basis. Hes a PG at this stage in his career and thats what hes going to be here on out.

Why can't he run the two?

Hes played point the last 2 years and has had relatively healthy seasons has had the ball in his hands more and hes not running around wearing himself out trying to get open for a pass when hes intiating the offense. The past 2 years the players have gotten bigger and faster at that position and he was getting beat up playing the 2, which is quite obvious. Why would we want to move him back to the 2 when its quite clear that hes a liability defensively and getting a bigger 1 to cover the 2 defeats the purpose in itself because thats a matchup that should be exploited on our end opposed to just "match-up"
