    Nick young has just reached a deal with Philladelphia.

    As reported by Woj on twitter...

    Not a bad move by Philly.


    Young has agreed to a 1-year, 6M deal with Sixers, agent Mark Bartelstein tells Y!

    Bit of a crowd of wings in Philly...Thad Young, Iguodala, Evan Turner, Nick Young, and Moe Harkless. They also use Williams/Holiday as combo guards a bit. I'm guessing they won't bring back Jodie Meeks, who was their starter most of the season, and probably not Lou Williams..

    They don't really have a power forward on the roster. Thad Young is kind of a combo forward, but he's probably more of 3.

    I know a team that has a few to spare!

    They need a solid shooter, Jrue and Iggy are the defenders on wings. He will fit in perfect. He is a great catch and shoot guy, and can get off screens better than any one they have.

    They have enough players for passing and defense. they need someone who can destroy offball screens.

    This. Their defense was solid most of the year, but their offense had way too many awful stretches. I wouldn't be surprised if that add yet another outside shooter.

    We should trade them 99 of our PFs for 100 of their SGs.

    at least he is closer to DC now, increased chances of Mr Tony discussing his NO assists

    He played for the Wizards, then Clippers last season.

    He loves these "Papa was a rolling stone" contracts doesn't he? Second one year contract in a row.
