It looks like Theo Ratliff will return … to Philly
From Bill Ingram of HOOPSWORLD: Rumors have Theo Ratliff on the verge of signing with the Philadelphia 76ers to replace injured center Jason Smith, and if there's a big man in the league who has more to prove than Kwame Brown it's Ratliff. There was a time when Ratliff was thought to be the next...
