Judging the responses ive been reading here and my own opinions I feel safe saying the consensus is we are not going to get Brand. My attitude was that it was possible but not likely. Hearing on the radio today that Brand was also talking to the sixers made it all clear. This is all propoganda so the masses don't think there were any backdoor agreements before discussions were allowed. The LA media is in on it too, pushing the possibility that they will lose Brand, all the while knowing he ain't going nowhere. The league probably won't do crap because two good LA teams means more revenue. The fact that there is so much buzz out there about brand coming to the dubs, and now, talking to the sixers, only strenghens my feelings that it's all an act. What does everyone else think.
