They really, really don't deserve it. Although they'd probably put up a better fight if O'Neal could get healthy before the playoffs. Still spanked in four games, but maybe they could make one close.

Does anyone else notice that the top 8 teams in the East have won at least one game and the bottom 8 teams in the West have lost at least one game?

It looks funny.

I don't want this team to make the playoffs. It's time to blow it up and start over.. like the 99 lock out season Chicago Bulls.

I think they could. But Boston would be a bad matchup for them. Probaly get swept

You guys obviously have no faith in the 2 headed playoff monster known as Murphleavy.

Not that I think they'll have a chance against Boston/Detroit, but I'm really happy for the 76'ers.

I predicted, long ago, that they'd at least be in playoff contention since, after making the Iverson trade, they hung around .500 and finished the season with a respectable record.

I just think they'd be an exciting team, even though their outcome is basically pre-determined.

they are going to be scarier next year with Elton Brand teaming up with Iggy and L. williams

tbh where the pacers are now it isonly like a 3 to 4 slot movement if they make the playoffs. I'm assuming they look at PG or C, and hibbert Lawson and collision should all still be available.

Yeah, I doubt they would have enough money to sign all 3 of them. Even Brand with Iggy is a stretch...
