SIXERS: 76ers acquire Songaila, Brackins for Green, Smith - 9/23/2010

not a big trade or anything.. but nonetheless... BIG NEWS.

sometimes i question wilie greens decisions. hes a score only guard.. and hes not even a good scorer. i appreciate that he came off the bench and provided a spark on the offense sometimes.. but this is for the best.

i suspected willie was on his way out when we traded for jodie meeks.. and then we drafted evan turner which only made this more inevitable.

good luck to willie green.

and jason smith.. i liked jason smith.. he was injured for most of his career here.. but there was something about his play that made me like him. when u watch him.. u can see that hes eager to play well for us. not afraid to get his jersey dirty. can hit the midrange shot pretty well. hes a good teammate. but he probably didnt get a good chance cuz of his injuries.

good luck to u too jason smith.

on the other hand.. i wanted the team to get bigger/taller.. and we did. but i dunno how this will work out. we got two midpost players out of it. songaila's a hustleman, so thats good. brackins is unproven yet so i dont kno wut he has to offer other than the midrange shot. but we'll see.

looks like we'll play a little bigger anyway.. cuz we got nocioni cuz they liked him. and im sure theyre gonna find him some time. but he plays the 3/4 position.. 4 spot just got even more crowded. so i guess we'll prolly slide him up to the 3 most of the time.. iggy or thad can slide up and play the 2 anyway.

overall:
we didn't get fortify the the lowpost defense like i wanted.. but we did get taller.. so i'm gonna call this a toss up.
