Andrew Bynum, the famous Lakers player and the youngest player ever to play in the NBA has arrived to the Lakers in a four team deal that sent Dwight Howard, Chris Duhon, and Eric Clark to the Lakers. Arron Afflalo, Al Harrington, Nikola Vucevic, Moe Harkless, Josh McRoberts, and Christian Eyenga were sent to the Magic, and sadly Andre Iguodala was sent to the Denver Nuggets. The Sixers recieved Andrew Bynum from the Lakers, and Jason Richardson from the Magic. Andrew Bynum a previous All-Star Center and 2 time NBA champion, scored 18.7 points per game, 1.9 blocks per game, and 11.8 rebounds per game last season with the Lakers. He was born in Plainsboro New Jersey on October 27 1987. He is an NBA Star to many and widely considered to be second best center in the nba behind Dwight Howard. Many Sixers Fans are having high hopes for this season as the "beast in the east" enters Philly. In his press conference with the Sixers, he said he was leaning onto wanting Philly to be his hometown, and that he had never seen such a crowd arrive to greet him. I will post a video in the videos tab of Andrew Bynum's, press conference of the Sixers. We hope to see you do well in Philly. LETS GO SIXERS!

So far this season the sixers are 20-14, Which is a much better record than they had last year and it is all thanks to the teams effort and Doug Collins really pulling the team together.

Sixers Draft 6-29-11
Nikola Vucevic
In the 2011 NBA Draft the Sixers have picked Nikola Vucevic. Doug Collins says the 7 foot center from Montenegro will be a essential fit to the Sixers rotation.
Vucevic skipped his senior season at the USC Trojans and was thought by scouts to be picked by the Knicks or the Sixers in the first round. He was eventually picked by the Sixers at 16th. His stats for USC were 17.1 ppg, 1.6 apg, 10.3 rpg, and 1.4 bpg.
Lavoy Allen
Even though the Sixers picked the 6 foot 9 power forward, Lavoy Allen, in the second round, he seems to be more of the buzz than Vucevic. He led his team, Temple, in rebounds and blocks and he was also named to the Pac 10 All Star Defensive Team. All the Sixers players seem to know him better and all agree he was only picked in the second round when scouts did not review him. He will most likely be loved by all the Sixers fans.
