I'd feel a lot better about this if Smith weren't a 7-foot pansy


Smith's net PER at PF from last year is pretty bad, -5.4, but he does out rebound his opponent by 2.2 rebs per 48 minutes. LINK Songaila's net per was even worse, -8.5, and his rebounding is terrible. He gets out rebounded by 4.6 per 48 LINK

So Smith is definitely >>>>>> Songaila and Brackins already showed his softer side in Summer League where the only impressive thing he did was shoot 3s.

Ariza? Healthy Paul? More Thornton? Improved Okafor? Improved coaching? Should I keep going?

athletic 7 footer?

This is what this team needs. We all saw what Chris Paul did to tyson, we have been lacking tall athleticism on this team ever since we traded tyson away.

Songolia was nothing special and this season his only value to the team was his expiring contract. Brackins, from his performance in summer league, looked like he needed a year to develop. Now this trade could have been made at any time so I wanted to see what brakins had in TC, but I guess its better to have your team set before TC.

Philly doesnt use their players to their full potential because Igadula takes 50 shots a game. Size and length is what we need at the 5.

I trust in Demps

This, I think management knew they made a mistake after summer league, and wanted to bail. That is my take on this trade
