when Igoudala is playing like that on both sides of the court its very hard to stop him.

I love the lineup in there now. Lou, Iggy, Young, Smith and Daly.

Great overall first half by the Sixers. Mo started the game off with the wrong subsititution with Evans in for Thad instead of Green, but I can't say I'm surprised. Both of the Andres were excellent. Green sucked. Sammy has to be more careful with the ball and Evans really needs to learn to pass out of the post especially on rebounds.

Also, I fully expect Mo to fix his mistake to begin the second half. Green struggled on both sides of the court. He shouldn't be on the court to start the game.

What the heck is wrong with Evans. Hitting his layups.

Thad is a beast on the boards.

Thad came in for Willie...Thad didn't start...Reggie did.

I was wondering how long mo was gonna go with willie on durant cuz durant was schooling him.

Nice penetration and kick from Carney...Seattle really looks lost. Rose will make a big difference up there!!

as soon as Thad comes in the game the Sixers are running away with it

Not watching the game, only tracking it online....

But, man, I'm really starting to develop confidence in this team! I know, it's the 16-win Sonics... But when was the last time you had a strong sense of confidence in the Sixers to win the winnable games? 2001?

Obviously, Mo wanted Durant to piss Willie off....Look for 40 points as soon as Willies get back in the game...

Thad Young's inside game is going to be so money, and it's not too shabby right now.

And TGP, we need you to make the game thread. It just ain't right to have anyone else do it.

Yeah...but Thad needed to dunk that instead of taking it under the rim and getting it blocked.

The thing about this team now is that they have developed an identity. They now know what they have to do to win. They have to defend and run. If they do that, they have a good chance of winning. If they stand around shooting jumpshots ... they lose. So, now that they know that, they can just make sure they are doing that ... defend and run ... defend and run ... defend and run .... win ... win ... win ...

Should've been more clear, but I was referring to the starting lineup.

Mo should have started Evans in place of Willie and not Thad.

freshie2 · Post #58 » by **freshie2** » Sat Mar 8, 2008 1:19 am

Gotcha...agree!! I thought the length of the Sonics would have pushed them in that direction as well.

bball4life · Post #59 » by **bball4life** » Sat Mar 8, 2008 1:26 am

OK, Willie "airball" Green needs to ride pine NOW.

And apparently Evans used all of his O for the game in the first half.

Bring in Thaddeus and Smith!

I guess Sammy woke up out of his mini-funk.
