Over the past few years, the Sixers have left a few good players leave the team. Sometimes we made out well, and usually we didn't. Here's my list of the top 12 players (in no particular order) that got away the past 5 years.
12: Speedy Claxton - He's small, but if all these teams want him, it can't be a fluke that this kid is a baller.

11. Brian Skinner - What a tough player. I loved his work ethic and style of play.

10. George Lynch - Yeah, he's slowing down, but man does that guy play some great D on small forwards.

9. Tim Thomas - I don't have to clue you in on this one.

8. Kevin Ollie - Was Snow's most solid backup.

7. Jerome Moiso - Yeah, he'll never be an all-star, but he did put a big hurting on us last year vs. NO.

6. Jumaine Jones - What an explosive forward. He was great in the playoffs for the Sixers.

5. Theo Ratliff - Yeah, he's injury prone, but he did put in a nice year for the Hawks last year. We're wishing we had him now.

4. Larry Hughes - I can't say much more than I miss the flight bros. Larry doesn't shoot a good % but he is exciting and explosive.

3. Raja Bell - Boy we looked dumb when he's starting for the Mavericks and doing a bang up job. Duh!

2. Lucious Harris - 10 ppg last year for the EC Champs. Sheesh!

1. Matt Harpring - We let this guy go for nothing....... NOTHING! He's going to be an all-star if he keeps doing what he did last year.


From the looks of these guys, we have all the role players we would need on a team.

C: Ratliff:Skinner
PF: Thomas:Moiso
SF: Lynch:Jones:Harpring
SG: Hughes:Harris:Bell
PG: Claxton:Ollie

It wouldn't win many games by themselves, but add an Eric Snow, Allen Iverson and Derrick Coleman and you win some games.

C: Coleman, Ratliff, Skinner
PF: Thomas, Moiso
SF: Harpring, Lynch, Jones
SG: Hughes, Harris, Bell
PG: Snow, Claxton, Ollie

Can you say championship team. Ah yes, it's fun to dream.
