THERE ARE, in the 76ers' scheme of things, post plays for Elton Brand, point forward sets for Andre Iguodala, back-door lobs for Samuel Dalembert, one-on-one breakdown calls for Lou Williams and Willie Green. For Thaddeus Young, there is simply a vista of opportunity that stretches the length and breadth of the basketball court.

INDIANAPOLIS - Wasn't Willie Green supposed to be the forgotten man of the 76ers' backcourt? That appeared to be the case in training camp and the preseason. The Sixers added Royal Ivey as a defender at both guard positions, added Kareem Rush as a combination small forward/big guard and obviously had plans to extend the role of Lou Williams as a scorer and pace-changer.

The blueprint for the 76ers' backcourt has changed. Willie Green's personal game plan has not. "I think I understand where I fit in on this team," said Green, preparing for his sixth season. "I'm a basketball player. You can put me in any situation, I just try and adapt, to give the team what it needs at that time."

WILLIE GREEN knows exactly what Jason Smith is going through: What it's like to feel totally alone, to feel unsure about your future, to wonder how long it's going to take before you again feel confident and comfortable on the basketball court.

Filed under: 76ers Philadelphia really needed to keep Andre Iguodala at just about all costs, both in order to contend for a title and to avoid another season of " Willie Green , NBA starter." The money's high , but the 76ers hardly had better options. If Iguodala was planning on holding out for $80 million, well Molly just pay the man. Of course, contracts don't get signed inside a vacuum. (That'd...
