Has anyone noticed how weak Sam Dalembert has been playing lately? All he wants to do is shoot 15 ft jumpers as if he is the 2nd coming of Chris Webber. The 76ers need a strong presence in the post from their center position if they are going to make the playoffs. Other than alley-oops or stick back layups, he seems to be lost out there. When your point guard (Andre Miller) can post up better than your center you're going to have problems. I thought Moses Malone was brought in to mentor Sammy. He appears to be weak when someone is bringing the game to him. Hopefully he'll prove me wrong. because I'm tired of seeing Dwight Howard dunkin' on Sammy's head posterizing him.

sam has always been inconsistent....he'll go through stretches where he will almost seem invisible...but then he will have a few weeks where he's a legit 20-20 threat...although this is one of the longer slumps he's had in recent years, i have no doubt that he will pick it up...also there are not as many shots for him to take as there were when Reggie Evans was starting (thad is becoming a straight baller) so most of his points are going to come on alley-oops and putbacks...what he needs to do for the sixers to continue this unexpected playoff push is to play good post defense and rebound well

I mean I don't get why so many people hate on Dalembert.  I mean 10ppg 10rpg is pretty good.  Sure he goes on stretches where he really struggles, but what player doesn't?  He is an above average Center in the NBA.  Is that really so bad?

Na, Dalmbert sux. I have been saying this since they drafted him. The Sixers need to dump him and draft a physical center.

He is an above average defensive center, and a below average offensive center.. so i guess that leaves  you somewhere in the middle..Sams offensive game really hasnt gotten any better in a few years i would say..It is a tough call for me if the perimeter players keep coming along i dont think that we will have to worry about him too much..I think he will be in the shadow of them which is probably just where he wants to be..

I agree that the Sixers need to get a physical center. Somehow Billy King thought that Dalembert deserved a contract worth $10 mil a year. Every year I keep waiting for this guy to blossom or at least show that he is worthy of that contract, and as of right now it doesn't appear like it is going to happen. As I said before, Moses Malone needs to get in his ear/face and stay there until this 6'11 softee toughens up his game. The NBA right now is very weak at the center position so there is no excuse for Sammy's performance.

Sam's stats don't really tell the whole picture.  He plays good against bad teams with no center, and is nonexistent against good teams.  He gets large rebounding numbers in some games, and then disappears.  He has no game, he isn't an intimidator under the basket against big men, and is often out of position.  He has no shot on offense, and can't even make a simple pass to another teammate.  Why they gave this guy all that money is beyond me.  Like I've said in other posts, they should blow this team up and start from scratch because they have few parts to the puzzle on this team.  They had four draft picks in the 2007 draft and did little to help their team.  That being said what can you expect from a middle of the pack first rounder, like most of the slop on this team.  Good luck to Eddie and Mo.
