The 76ers have agreed to terms with forward Rodney Carney, this according to a source familiar with the situation.
Carney, 6-foot-7, has agreed to a 1-year deal. Previously, Carney spent two seasons with the Sixers: 2006-07, 2007-08. In July of 2008, Carney was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he played last season.
In his 3-year career, Carney has averaged 6.5 points and 2.0 rebounds a game.

Rodney Carney was one of my favorites two years ago. I was sorry to see him traded, but he didn't do much with his opportunity in Minnesota. Has his jump shot continued to improve?— Duracorr- I'd rather they signed Art Carney.
- here's my dream: hope elton brand comes back healthy and loosely resembles the 20 and 10 guy so that we can trade him and thaddeus young for chris bosh at the trade deadline, sixers' tank the rest of the season, win the lottery, draft pg-john wall, and then sign shannon brown and raja bell in the offseason. next year's projected lineup: wall/holiday at pg, bell/williams at sg, iguodala/brown at sf, speights/smith at pf, and bosh/dalembert at c. if somehow that all happens, the sixers' will be able to finally compete against the lakers, cavs, celtics, and spurs for a championship. good luck stefanski!!!!!!!!!— uscwee
- Been a big Sixers fan since 1976. I can honestly say I have zero interest in this team. Between Snyder egoing out Croce to Stefanski trashing the cap space we waited years to get....they just sucked the life out of this fan base.— JonKap

- Also, can shoot the trey. Would love to see him take WG's minutes.— person
- Give me your tired and your poor yearning to play for the NBA minimum salary. Ed Stefanski has so miscalculated the NBA salary cap for this season the Sixers will be taking a severe step back. Presently, the Brand contract debacle makes the Dalembert contract look like the NBA minimum. The Sixers marketing department will be working overtime trying to get fans to come out to the games. Good luck!!!— RunningTheBases
- all part of the plan. the sixers will be one of the 5 worst teams in the league and get an amazing lottery pick to get that stud shooting guard in the 2010 draft. They arent winning a title anyway, so lose em all boyz— meaned
