Well, surely by now you've heard that Elton Brand is going to the 76ers. I decided to withhold my comments until it became official and Elton had a chance to defend himself. Both happened today on Sportscenter. Many are saying it's the second coming of Carlos Boozer, but I think it's worse, because instead of screwing just a fan base, you're screwing a fan base and a star player ( Baron Davis) who decided to take less money so he could have better teammates. I know Baron's got a thing with a movie production studio, but if he had known Brand and Corey Maggette would leave(and Corey's going back to Golden State, by the way), I don't think he would have left the Bay Area. The only way I don't hate Elton Brand forever is if Baron comes out and says he's fine with the move because on the interview I saw Elton made it seem like Baron encouraged him to do what's best for him. If so, great, but Baron still ends up with a lousy team. If not, then Brand just messed up a franchise that's already second-best to its city.
