DeLeon - is it crucial for the Sixers replace him?
As homicide would say: too hard to guard!!!




find that Deleon dribbles the ball too long not going anywhere and then can't find a shot or drive, gives the ball up to someone else with the shot clock now running down.

Well you don't sign an import to play 11 minutes.Why not?
A lot of imports are getting meagre minutes. Jett and Jackson about 20. Wear not far off. Moore sometimes similar. Boone played 18 against the Breakers. Moore played 12 in that game, Long fouled out in 17. Egwu played less than 9 against Cairns. Richard 15-16 against Brisbane.
DeLeon didn't look too bad. Speed and effort are there. Over-judging third-string imports is a bit like using all your trades shuffling $250k bench players in fantasy.

"Thred"
This is amazing's,

Cedric Jackson is well ahead of DeLeon for first sacked import

Dropped in for Anon comments in this train wreck.
"Moron's," did not disappoint.
Amazing's,

DeLeon will be the First Ever import sacked this season.

He's the third guard behind Sobey and Moore, so he doesn't have to be a star but he's effectiveness will come down to whether he hits an ok clip.
With Moore in foul trouble against Perth he did the spark plug role he's been brought in for, hitting three triples and scoring 11 in 18 minutes with a couple of assists to be +9 in an eight-point loss.
Against Sydney he missed a couple of pull-ups he can nail and his three-ball didn't drop, so he ends with 6p in 11 minutes on 2/7 and two assists and -2 in an 11-point win.
Moore and Sobey were playing well so they took the majority of guard minutes, it will be different on different nights. It's too early to make a call on him for mine.

Teys and Doyle played. Still beat Sydney in Sydney backing up after a previous game.

DeLeon played 11 min.
Teys played 8 min.
All depends on what sort of contribution level they expect from their 3rd import.

Because i do know the salaries, moron

James out here acting like the outcome of this discussion will result in the 36ers taking immediate action. Its a forum, it's full of peoples opinions, which they are entitled too. It won't influence Adelaide in any way shape or form, see Ebi Ere... the only moronic thing in this discussion is you not letting people give their opinion on deleon. Heres mine, he is that teammate that tells you explicitly what we need to do, then goes and does the opposite the next two plays... even the commentators are calling it, one highlight followed by two bonehead plays

"Moron's, you don’t know the salaries and what you can get for the payments on offer! He’s the best value for money out of all the imports in the league. "
Fancy starting a comment by calling people morons, saying they don't know the salaries, then backing up these statements by saying he is best value for money. lol. If you don't know the salaries, how he is best value for money?

His role is to play within Joeys system and I don't believe chucking up clunkers willy nilly is Joey's mantra - calling people names over the internet makes you look like a sad individual...

Moron’s, you don’t know the salaries and what you can get for the payments on offer! He’s the best value for money out of all the imports in the league. The real question is Bogut and how much he’s getting paid vs output.

Would LOVE to have Melo Trimble. Reckon he fits perfect within the Sixers system.

He isn't very good but Wiley can't be cheap so maybe that's all they could afford


It's a general question... it seems he isn't going to have the endurance to perform during the doubleheaders. Ridiculous signing for a club coming off a near championship.


I heard this on the "brotha grapevine" this morning. The word is AI is planning a trip to Australia around Summertime and would like to play a little NBL while he is here. Anyone else heard anything?
