In theory this would be good.

But in reality they would just loose in the conference semis or maybe, just maybe make it to the conference finals. This new sixers squad has jelled together and has team chemistry. Brand is coming next season so their chemistry will go down a bit but the will get better. And anyway Andre Miller is the PG in Philly, so he would just sit on the bench if AI were to play, PLUS they dont have enough cap space.

If A.I really wanted to win a championship he would accept to be paid lower and if it does happen the line-up would be sick!

pg-andre miller
sg-iverson
sf-iguodala
-pf- elton brand
c- samuel dalembert

this team would definately go to the eastern conference finals and they would be playing against detroit, celtics or cleveland.

p.s. andre miller wouldnt have to sit on the bench becaus A.I could go to the sg position just like he does in denver. (anthony carter is PG)

Now Ron Artest is going to the Rockets. What do you guys think? I'm not familiar with Ron Artest so do you think he can help the Rockets to advance past the first round of the playoffs?

Wow i didnt heard about it WHo was he traded for? and yes he can help the rockets. Ron is underrated. He is one of the best defensive player in the league and he also has a pretty nice offensive game compared to players like Bruce Bowen and Shane who only play defense and shoot corner 3s

Artest will be traded to Houston for Bobby Jackson, a No. 1 draft pick and another player, the Houston Chronicle reports.

It was on the NBA website.

Yea I heard that. Yao didn't like Artest's temper and attitude and Artest began to say Yao didn't understand a lot about black people since he comes from China. Still, this big three would be sick. What's sicker is other role players, their starting five is definitely top 3 in the nba (Yao, Scola/Artest, Artest/Battier, Tmac, Alston). They have Franchise, Barry, Landry possibly, Brooks and either Artest or Scola on the bench. They have a super lineup, all they need now is chemistry and health and a bit luck in the playoff, then they would be a real contender.

"Hopefully, he's not fighting anymore and going after a guy in the stands," Yao said, according to the Chronicle.

When asked about those comments, Artest said Yao had bought into "all the propaganda" about him, according to The Sacramento Bee.

"I understand what Yao said, but I'm still ghetto," Artest said, according to the report. "That's not going to change. I'm never going to change my culture. Yao has played with a lot of black players, but I don't think he's ever played with a black player that really represents his culture as much as I represent my culture. Once Yao Ming gets to know me, he'll understand what I'm about"

Lol! Artest is so dumb! Hes making black people look like if they were all gangstas and that breaking the laws and fighting is in their culture. Haha. (im black by the way so no racism involved). I hope it will work out well between them though. Houston Rockets are my favorite team next to the pistons. (if the pistons keep all there key players)

Lols. That's funny. Different cultural views... and not all black people fight.
