Sixers Tried To Trade Up For Yi

Nov 28, 2007 11:54 AM EST

Yi Jianlian is doing for the Bucks what Sixers President/General Manager Billy King must have envisioned when he led a scouting contingent first to China, then to Southern California: to make certain Yi, agent Dan Fagen and the Chinese Federation understood the depth of their interest.

King tried - hard - to move up in the draft to select Yi or, failing that, to work out a postdraft trade with the Bucks. Even though Bucks' General Manager Larry Harris said trading the 6-11 forward/center "was never an option," sources have indicated that the Sixers had a few different packages on the table.

Sixers Are Fielding Offers For Miller

Nov 25, 2007 10:38 AM EST

The Sixers are open to fielding offers for Andre Miller (Cleveland and Miami are seen as his prime suitors) and plan to give Lou Williams more minutes at the point.

In the meantime, Andre Iguodala, who didn't get the contract extension he was looking for, is taking more shots and turning the ball over more than anyone on the team and complaining more, too. "His body language is worse than Iverson's ever was," reports one teammate.
