Hi. saw your post in Philly.com and decided to take a look. Not bad, I must say. I commend you for that.

So anyways, back to the Sixers. Basically, I believe they need more size to compete w/ Detroit and New Jersey. They can probably take out the rest of the East without much trouble, but these 2 eastern conference teams are their, shall we say, rivals.

This is why many Sixers fans are pushing for the management to acquire Keon Clark. We need a force in the middle - a shotblocker.

If I had to say the biggest enemy of Philadelphia, I'd say Time. Iverson, Snow, McKie, DC, and everyone else is growing old. We are now in need of some young backup and/or replacement for DC, who is 35 (give or take a year or two .. i forgot his age LOL)

We can be competitive with the East, but we need more strength in the frontcourt.
