It's pretty great that we're in a three way tie with even records making a run at the 5th seed. I know everyone's schedules are different....easier....harder...but it's a sprint to the finish now, and we've responded really well to challenges lately!

Has somebody seen the replay of the buzzer beater by TJ Ford which was later undone? Gee, the Raptors got badly, badly robbed. They should have won the game because at that sequence the clock was already ticking although Ford did not touch the ball yet. Those are ****' idiots who have the control over the clock.

Cleveland lost to the bulls last night. had we won against them, we'd have a legit shot at catching them.

I believe we can clinch a spot if we win against the Hawks today. Or we could clinch if we lose and Indiana and New Jersey both lose.

Toronto lost to the Bobcats, and it appears the Wizards are going to win theirs, so a win for us puts us at a tie for the 5th and I believe we have the tie breaker.

And yes, one more win and we clinch a playoff berth.

No real games of interest for the Sixers tonight but Atlanta is getting blown out by 20 in the 3rd quarter to Indiana. Apparently Indiana refuses to fold for the season and are going to fight for 8th.

Washington, Cleveland, and Toronto all won tonight. The real loser tonight was the Hawks since it looks like the best they can do is get the 8th seed and the Celtics in round one.

Anyone watching the Denver/Golden State game tonight??? So far it's been sloppy but entertaining.

Yeah, it was a pretty good game. Monta Ellis keeps getting better every time I watch GS.

Despite the Sixers effort to win collectively turning coal into a diamond (they seem a bit tight out there) things are still looking up.

The Wiz loss to Detroit was huge.

Now if the Pistons can beat the Raps, the Sixers can move into posession of th e 5 seed wit6h a win against the Wiz.

they need to regain their ability to win the back end of a back to back. Should be a huge game tomorrow.

If the playoffs started today we would be playing Detroit. :-?

Sixers better get it together and win out otherwise we are probably looking at one and done this year.

Simply put... If Green continues to start and log 20 plus minutes a game, this team has no chance in the playoffs. I have never in all my years seen a sixers starter that is so bad in every aspect of the team game.
