Philly is playing better lately. They were in the game for a little bit vs. the Warriors even. Let's take care of business and get a good little winning streak going.

Guys should have learned their lessons in Detroit?

Home and home, that's nice.

Carl Landry is their go to guy now, Marv should handle that pretty well. Kemba shouldn't have problem with Ish's speed. Just gotta be careful of their three point shooters.

Thanks for the honesty.

I want to see Covington plays well and they still lose. That will be great for me, haha.

I can see us letting them hang around and then eeking by. I hope not. 76ers can play teams tough. Really good ones. They were competitive most of the last game. We'll need to play with force and execute, not play flat, to get a comfortable win. I don't see us losing tonight or Friday however.

I'll be keeping up with this but it's soccer all the way for me tonight. Let's just hope i'm not watching a funeral.



I have a feeling the Sixers are going to keep this close it seems like they're playing a bit better than they were

Yes, the USMNT has their backs against the wall, and the Guatemalan star, Carlos Ruiz, is expected to play. On top of that, I hardly recognize the names of half the team.

As for the 76ers, they have all of nine victories this season. So they are better than a D-league team, but not up to NBA level yet. Losing can become a self-fulfilling prophecy. And it can carry on for years. Just look at the Clippers and what they were until Blake Griffin came on the scene.

Rick Bonnell ‏@rick_bonnell 28s28 seconds ago
No Noel, Grant or Holmes for 76ers tonight. They're down to 10 players versus @hornets

Bonnell says Lin may not play tonight. Lower back soreness. Fine, better to rest than aggravate it.

Lin is out. Lamb might get more minutes.
Lamb gets Lin's minutes. And Jorge gets Lamb's minutes.
Most NBA stats aren't credible. At most times the people who interprets those data are biased, or the data themselves are flawed. Basketball is just too complicated with so many uncontrollable variables.

so far games without lin 0-3, not a good sign... lin should play, one minute is good enough

Anyone surprised to see Lee, not Kemba, on Ish Smith?

Thought we were going to get a nice lead early. Ugh.
