Why can't we beat anybody in the east?

I disagree with just about everything you said. I'll just leave it at that.

You should take a trip out to Vegas. The Sixers are 80-1 to win it all this year. 35-1 to win the East.

Golden State pulled off one upset and was bounced in the 2nd round. Also that was one of the few times that happened in the 40 year history of the league.

They also had plenty of experience with guys like Stephen Jackson who won a title with the Spurs. Harrington and Baron Davis also had major post season experience.

The Sixers would have to pull off 3 upsets most likely all without home court advantage. The Sixers are hot and might pull off an upset or maybe even two. It is highly unlikely they will pull off 3 straight upsets. I am sure we will all be rooting like hell for them but you need to be realistic. This is a team that was recently exposed against Orlando. It is very possible if we play Orlando they could send us packing in the 1st round.

I think the Celtics are the most overachieving team in NBA history and are a total fraud and a shoe-in early exit. The Pistons? Hard to say. Not a big fan of them either.

Winning the Finals would definitely be a lot harder than coming out of the east, but it certainly is possible.

Forgot green font? Honestly man i dont mean to intrude on the topic but calling them a Early Exit and saying its very possible for the Sixers to win it all doesnt seem right. How about lets wait and see what happens : D
