Hello and welcome to this great day in 76ers Basketball as of right now the 76ers are a better team. This press conference will welcome the new faces of 76er Basketball which is Greg Oden,J.R. Smith, Bonzi Wells,Jorge Garbajosa and Vladmir Radmonavic. We did sign Jorge Garbajosa last year but he wanted to play in euro one more year before coming to the NBA so we now welcome him. Greg Oden was taken 1st overall by the 76ers so we welcome him. J.R. Smith and Vladmir Radmonavic come in for the T-wolves for Ricky Davis and Bonzi Wells Comes in from the Heat which seen Juwan Howard leaving. At this Time ill give the stage to the general manager Mr.Brandon Hayward.
Brandon Hayward:Thank you so much when I came here from the Toronto Raptors and if you told me we would be sitting here right now welcoming Greg Oden I would tell you to get out of here as of right now this Basketball team is one of the youngest and best on paper right now. I can't say they well make the playoffs this year but how this team looks on Paper and how young we are I think we could make a run at it. I know when i took over as GM of the 76ers I knew there were going to be big things for this team I really didnt know how big but now I do. I welcome Greg Oden right now to take the stage.
Greg Oden: Thank you Mr. Hayward am really happy to be a part of the 76ers I really could not ask for a better place to play. Am going to do my part and play my heart out every night when am on the court. Thats all I really have to say.

Brandon Hayward: Well we worked them both out and we are pretty good at SF right now don't get me worng Durrant will be a great star in this league but as I see it not alot of guys like Oden come your way and we really needed another Big Man thats why we took Oden over Durrant

Brandon Hayward: We are not looking to trade Oden at all if we were to trade him it would of been before we picked him are mind was made up once we got the pick that we would not trade it A player like oden does not come around alot and last year he played pretty much with one hand think what this man can do with two hands so no he will not be traded and I really can't say his going to be an 76er For life
