GT March 30th: Charlotte @ Philadelphia 8:00pm 

Post#1 » by BigSlam » Sat Mar 30, 2013 1:08 pm

Is Philadelphia any good? I'm not sure I have seen a Sixers game all year.

Either way, it would be nice to put up a good 1st qty for a change rather than playing catch up all night.

The Sixers have been in a rut and playing below .500 basketball ever since about mid-December. Doug Collins' emotions are beginning to wear on that team the same way it has every other place he's coached after a few years. This should be a winnable game for us but we're the Bobcats and our leaders tonight are Away Kemba and Marquee Hendo.

Former 76ers star Allen Iverson set to return to Philadelphia for his bobblehead night

Iverson has accepted the Philadelphia 76ers' invitation to return for his bobblehead night Saturday and will present the game ball before they play Charlotte.

Sixers CEO Adam Aron says Iverson rearranged his schedule to make the trip to Philadelphia. The Sixers will salute one of their greatest players with a video tribute.

Last time we played them Lavoy Allen got 22 rebounds.

That was pre Dayman though.

This is Collins's fourth head coaching gig and it will most likely be the fourth time he doesn't get past the third season with his team.

You can't blame it all on Doug, in my opinion, the Bynum thing ruined their season. From there on it's only understandable that the players would get down and a guy like Collins would step on them even more just because of that. The only positive thing about their season is the play of Jrue Holiday. Other than that, a terrible year. I have no idea what should they do in the future. Re-signing Bynum is risky as hell and they shouldn't do it just because of the "well, we gave up so much for him, we can't let him go for nothing" logic.

To keep Nick "Swaggy P" Young from shooting 50 shots per game. BTW, Young has been receiving DNP-CD's for almost a month now. Collins is fed up with him. One of the only two times he allowed him to play a few minutes in March was in his hometown when they played the Clippers in LA :lol:

I wonder why they need to bring Iverson back for a bobblehead when they have a living one on their team in Bynum.

From wiki:
A bobblehead doll, also known as a bobbing head doll, nodder, or wobbler, is a type of collectible toy. Its head is often oversized compared to its body.

Should be a decent game at least. Bobcats haven't really been stinking it up that much, other than the Heat game and the 1st half at NY.

Jrue vs. Kemba and Turner vs. MKG/Hendo should be fun.
