Because Billy King is the GM.

But yeah, Steve Smith has always impressed me. A poor mans' Al Harrington with a better understanding of defense. Pretty good rebounder with a nice mid range shot. He can be effective cleaning up the boards after misses and playing good enough defense to warrant minutes. Aside from his usual hustle on the court.

Question: Will Steven Smith be a Sixer next season?
Answer: The jury is still out. The Sixers are one of five or six teams trying to sign Smith. The rub here is that Smith wants to get as much guaranteed money as he possibly can, and the Sixers are over the luxury tax figure. Should the Sixers sign Smith for X number of dollars, they'd have to pay another X number of dollars in luxury tax. Billy King is looking for ways to reduce the payroll but if he can't do it, it's questionable whether they'll be able to sign Smith.

Q & A with Joe Juliano who is Sixers beat writer.
