19-0 run, in the 4th, against the Celtics, in Boston!!

I love Miller in the post game radio interview...

McGinnis: So Andre, you went on a 19-0 run, thoughts?

Miller (non-chalant): 19-0? Ok...

What a win!!!!

The team's best squad was the group we had on the floor for the 4th: Sam-Thad-Dala-Lou-Miller

We need to ride that line-up 30+ min each game. Match-up be damned, let them match-up with us.

It feels even better knowing that they earned their place above .500 .... we shut down the best defensive team in the league in the 4th quarter in their house.

An awesome win and according to Zumoff this is the first time we've been above .500 this late in the season since the end of 04-05 season. Wow!

Damn you Philly!!! Damn You!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nah, much respect to ya. I love watching Boston get their arses beat even if it means that you guys are creeping up on us. Now tell the truth, how many of you after watching that game want to strangle Tommy Heinsohn to death. Is he the most homeristic announcer you've ever heard?

The 76ers clearly won their most important game of the year tonight. It's going to be a fun day going to work in Philadelphia tomorrow. I hope Cheeks does not allow 10 minutes to pass in the ist quarter next time, before putting Thaddeus in the game. Our starters, with a lack of talent, put us in a hole, but we overcame the deficit.

It's funny, because in the first month of the season ,one of the big discussions was the starting team putting the 2nd stringers in a big hole. I see Reggie Evans minutes getting cut in the playoffs. We can not afford his foul shooting. It would be like hack a Shack.

I still do not think we could beat Detroit, Boston or Orlando in the playoffs, but I am confident we can beat Cleveland, even if Cleveland has the home court advantage.

I just saw this:

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/powerrank ... 08&week=21
How can we BEAT Denver, and them pass us in the power rankings? I have no problem with them being ahead of us, but if you're going to put us in front of them one week, then we BEAT them, they can't go in front of us the following week.

WOW!!! Did not expect this one tonight at all.

Iguodala has to stay through his foul shots...he needs to be more consistent in his form and follow through, and he can be an 80% FT shooter.

Yes, SixersFTW...a legit PF on this team would be huge. Some big decisions to be made this off season, but for now we should just enjoy the journey. Nice game, still some mental mistakes, but this was a great win, especially coming back in the 4th on the road against this club.

And don't forget coach Cheeks ....

I am sure he will become STUPID again soon ...


Cheeks was STUPID today
it was STUPID to start with Evans instead of Young
it was STUPID to give Green so many minutes while he is playing so bad
it was STUPID to play Booth instead of Jason Smith
so there you have it , i hope you are happy

on a different note i loved how Iggy played tonight
he had so much passion in his game i was jumping up and down just from watching him jumping up and doen after every good play he made(and he made planty of those)

An amazing and-one off the dribble reverse lay-up. It was beautiful.

Yea, I'll at least eat crow when I spit out my nonsensical reactionary crap, but he almost NEVER comes in when Iggy is playing well.

I also just saw that on espn and thought it was a joke. Whatever... power rankings are created for the sole purpose of pissing off fanbases and creating a story out of nothing.

I'm serious, guys. If SendEm does not show up at some point and acknowledge Iguodala's effort tonight, he should be ignored by EVERY poster on this forum.

Wasn't watching at this point, but apparently Zumoff/Salmi/Someone said on the telecast that Pierce was talking trash to Iguodala in the 4th quarter, which caused Andre to play like his pants were on fire.

Cheeks has been fine...what can you question during a winning stretch like the Sixers have been on?? The rotation will change next season, but don't expect much to change the rest of the season...it seems to be working, no??

It was mentioned, but I thought it was in the first half...either way, it's nice to see him respond like this. Good job on your posts tonight...I won't pile on!!

Quoting bebob but this goes for everyone: don't stoop to low levels because others do. Enjoy the win.
