    It's gotta be or.

    Future pick? That sounds better than a late 2014 pick.

    Only delusional posters were expecting Aldridge or Love. Anderson was much more realistic.

    "To clarify, #Sixers aren't offering Thad Young AND Spencer Hawes for Asik, Hinkie has simply made either available in trade discussion."

    Or overthinking Asik's value and setting the market as if they are the NBA execs and GMs.

    We haven't seen Rondo without Pierce and Garnett either not to mention he's coming off a big injury. Asik will fumble his passes but defensively they could be great.

    While were at it, the Sixers should throw in 3 first round picks too.

    If Asik's salary is $8.3 million a year, and guys like Bass/Lee add up over $12 million, same for Young/Hawes combined, who else gets dealt by us, or is a 3rd team more likely.

    And is this deal just a potential for another deal in Feb when players can be dealt again?

    I don't understand the NBA salary cap as I do the NFL salary cap, so bare with me please.

    Or maybe people were just delusional about their value of Omer Asik.

    Sure every team would love to have him, but with his demands to be a starting center, at his salary in a salary cap era, and so few starting jobs left wide open, it should be no shock to any educated follower that Asik's value in the trade isn't exactly at superstar level.

    Morey shouldn't be blamed for the fans delusion of grandeur.

    I was against getting Thad, but I'm warming up to the idea, think he could flourish in our offense
