But seriously, I think there are loser fans and good fans in both cities. I don't know you, so I can't say into which camp you fall. I just hope both teams can get a rivalry going again. Over the last 20+ years there has not been any time when both teams are up- and that's what's needed to feed the rivalry. Hopefully that's what we're looking at over the next few years- and I sincerely hope Philly can get some good shots in while Boston heads back down during the innevitable decline as age catches up with the big 3.


Thank you tk76. I am split between divergent urges to be a loser and a good fan. It's
kind of like Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde. One minute I'm just purring along all gracious and intelligent and then BOOM!: complete personality change. What are you gonna do? Perhaps medical science will someday come up with a cure...

Yes a restored Philly/ Boston rivalry seems to be coming as your team looks revitalized. This will be tons of fun. Love Thaddeus Young. He's a keeper.

Hmm.. Does anyone know if the game is even on TV anywhere? I assumed it would at least be on MSG, but that is not the case. Not on NBATV either. Does anyone know of any broadband links for this game?

Because I think he's more effective running through screens shooting mid-range or slashing then drawing help defenses then either driving straight to the basket or throwing drop passes to either Daly or Brand.
:D


Agreed...would love to see the mid range game improve as well...I think the outside shot will be better, but the mid range game is a rare piece I'd love to see him develop further.

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
