76ers destroy Magic

A very nice and convincing win against the Orlando Magic. So the answer to my question yesterday about them being able to figure out the magic is yes the can. With that win the 76ers jump into the 7th seed and are inches behind the sixth seed and facing this Magic team in the playoffs, I know there is still plenty of time for that but they are looking really good and proving there success of late is not a fluke. Willie Green and Andre Miller tied the game high with 26 points and Andre Iguodala was close behind with 24.
Also I was watching ESPN to check out the highlights of this game and there was some women I have never seen before doing the highlights and providing analysis, I didn't catch her name, I think she might be a girl from the WNBA and if she is she shouldn't quit her day job because she was awful. She called Iguodala Ilgauskas, she said the 76ers have won seven in a row, and said they don't even have a chance for the playoffs when they are currently sitting 7th
whoever she is, they should not ever have her back on the air.

Orlando Magic tonight

Even though Philly has had one of the best records in February 7-4 two of those losses have been to this Magic team. Can they figure them out tonight? It's a home game before a tough west coast road trip.

Still looking not bad

This weekend was pretty much as I expected, a blowout loss by the Magic and a win against the Heat. Next game is Wednesday again the Magic again. Then a tough West Coast road trip against the Warriors, Suns and Clippers. The good thing is they are playing very competitive basketball so those should be good close games. That Golden State game should be a shoot out.

I had no idea

That the 76ers were sitting in the eighth spot right now. If the season ended today they would make the playoffs. They would have to play the Celtics but at least they are a playoff team right now! So that's good. Can they give the Magic a good game tonight?

Nice win last night

That's the way you take care of the crap teams in the league, you blow em out by 40 points. The 76ers may not be the best team in the league but when they show that they can handle the crappy teams like that it shows that they are definitely improving. Great way to show that they approve of Maurice Cheeks getting a contract extension yesterday.
Next game is Friday against the Magic in Orlando. Last time they played a few weeks ago I said the 76ers would be blown out and they made it a real close game, can they do the same Friday?

Damn that all-star break

I knew it would screw up the momentum they had going into it. The 76ers suffered a defeat from the hands of a poor Minesita Timberowlves team. The 76ers got outscored in every quarter and ultimately lost by 16 points 104-88. Iguodala was the top scorer for the 76ers netting 17 points.

Lets see if they can rebound against an terrible New York Knicks team who are in last place in the East.

76ers vs. Timberwolvews tonight

Can they continue on their hot streak that was put on hold by the all-star break? They are on a five game win streak and hope to keep it going against the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight.

Sixers beat Mavericks

I din't think there was a chance in hell, but I was wrong. Their win streak in now up to 4 games in a row.

Highlights of last nights game.


It is now the all-star break so the enxt games is not until next Tuesday. Of course, they are as hot as they've been all season and now the break comes. Well atleast wehn the come back their first game is against the Timberwolves a game that should be very competitive for the 76ers.

After three wins in a row, they face a tough challenge tonight

They have been playing really well the past week, winning three in a row. However tonight they play a very tough Dallas team and Dirk Nowitzki. The only question is will they continue to play tough for 48 minutes?

Highlights of Saturdays game against the Clippers.

Two in a row?

They should be able to get 2 in a row since they play the lowly Heat without Shaq as he is now a Sun, but I hate to assume anything especially with this Sixers team. The game is at home where ten of their 19 wins have come, so my prediction is that they will pull out a win tonight.

Philly loses to Atlanta



What can they do tonight against the Wizards?

With a strong 4th quarter, the 76ers pulled out an upset win over the Wizards by 5 points 101-96. They outscored the Wizards by 15 in the final frame. AI, Andre Iguodala led the way for the Sixers and scored a game high 20 points.

Highlights of this game coming soon.

They put up a fight

Even in a loss the other night to the Orlando Magic, I am impressed that they put up a fight. I thought they would have rolled over and gotten wupped. Instead they took it to them and lost by only two points. Keep up the hard work guys.

Here's a little AI for you.

3 in a row?

Probably not against the very talented Orlando Magic. Yes its a home game but I think it will be too much for them to handle. They will not be able to handle Dwight Howard and all he brings to the table.
