Sixers Off-Season Thread

Who did he play with first?  Was it Mo-town? 

[MURP]

Portland first, MoTown 2nd, 76ers 3rd. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Yep, I missed them.  I didn't care.

So, what's the big deal, then?

[Sgt PSN]

So, what's the big deal, then?

I think it's simply the fact that he's truly a nice dude who grew up in Philly, played college ball in Philly and the majority of his NBA career in Philly.  And even though he sometimes fell short on the court, his efforts could never be questioned nor could his character.  He's a guy that's easy to root for because he's so likable and it sucks seeing him go to LA, a team that's impossible to root for.   

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Fine.  You're all right.  I was wrong.  McKie is the farging man; I'm so upset he'll be playing for the Lakers.

Basketball still sucks.

[Mad-Lad]

how dare you have a slight emotional attachment to someone you've watched for years!

You WILL learn to cut that out of your mind and focus all of your attention to the current roster.  Love them.  Respect them.  Fear them.
