Sixers Are Officially in Free-fall
Posted on 18 Dec 2012 by Michael Thibault.
The Sixers fell to the Mavericks tonight in Dallas 107-100. OJ Mayo lead the way with 26 points for the Mavericks and Dorell Wright, yes you heard that right, Dorell Wright led the Sixers with 25. The game was close the entire way until mid-way through the fourth quarter when the Sixers defense completely fell apart, which has become a trend. The Sixers were missing Jrue Holiday for a third str...

What Bynum could mean to Sixers
Posted on 17 Dec 2012 by Michael Thibault.
Today, Andrew Bynum announced that he is “feeling much better”, and could possibly return to action soon. I think Sixers fans by now have learned to block these words out and stare down the realization that we probably won't be seeing our savior this season. But a small part of me believe's it this time. With the Sixers glaring at what could be a crippling schedule over the next mon...

Evan Turner is the Key to Success for Philadelphia
Posted on 27 Oct 2012 by Scott Lentz.
There is much to be excited about for Sixers fans as we head into the 2012-2013 season. As the Cinderella story of the Eastern Conference last season, the Sixers stunned the top-seeded Chicago Bulls in the first round of the playoffs (with some help from Derrick Rose's knee) and pushed the Boston Celtics to a deciding seventh game in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals. The Sixers ranked 3rd o...

Bynum’s future still no guarantee
Posted on 16 Aug 2012 by Tito Javier.
Yesterday the 76ers held a press conference for newly acquired pieces Andrew Bynum and Jason Richardson. The new 76ers players were greeted by shouts of excitement from fans waiting for the two to arrive at Constitution Center to address the media. Andrew Bynum, who will be the focal piece of the 76ers team next season, seemed pleased and a bit surprised by the level of applause he was given by...

Winners or Losers?
Posted on 10 Aug 2012 by Tito Javier.
Last night the storm that has been Dwight Howard finally came to an end when the seven foot, three time defensive player of the year, was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. The trade, which includes Denver, Orlando and Philly saw nine players and four draft picks change hands. The Lakers, who came out the big winners in the blockbuster deal, will certainly benefit from their acquisition of Howar...

Early 2012-2013 outlook for 76ers
Posted on 9 Aug 2012 by Tito Javier.
So far this offseason the Philadelphia 76ers have managed to pick up two quality draft picks, keep the team young and competitive and have watched star forward Andre Iguodala compete at a high level in the London Olympic Games. Last season ended in disappointment for the 76ers, losing to the Boston Celtics in Game 7 of a back and forth playoff series. Despite the loss, the 76ers proved their ...

Sixers Draft Recap
Posted on 29 Jun 2012 by Emily Gruver.
Here are my thoughts on the Philadelphia 76ers draft picks. Their first pick was round 1, pick 15 and that was Maurice Harkless, a small forward from St. Johns. I liked this pick but I think they should have picked Tyler Zeller. The Sixers need big men and I thought Zeller would be the perfect fit, especially since Sixers center, Spencer Hawes could possibly leave. But the good thing about this...

Trade Deadline: 76ers
Posted on 14 Mar 2012 by Mike Rapine.
Thursday, March 15th 2012. Many Philadelphia 76ers fans once hoped that the arrival of this day would mean the erasing of Andre Iguodala, Elton Brand and their huge contracts off the books. While some fans may still feel that way (mainly with Brand), a trade by tomorrow's deadline does not seem to be in the plans for the front office of the 76ers. Truthfully, that may be in the best interest o...

Grading the Game: 76ers at Knicks
Posted on 11 Mar 2012 by Mike Rapine.
Straying from the usual breakdown of the game, here is a player-by-player breakdown of the 76ers' 106-94 win in over the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden Sunday. 76ers C Nik Vucevic — C- Feel a little generous giving Nik a “C” here as he didn't provide much today. The rookie got the start over Tony Battie at the 5 but just couldn't get in any rhythm today. First time...

Turner Answers Critics, Scorches Celtics
Posted on 7 Mar 2012 by Mike Rapine.
Normally, the Boston Celtics coming to Philadelphia is a big enough reason for the Wells Fargo Center to have a playoff atmosphere to it. Turns out this year’s first meeting between the teams also had first place of the Atlantic Division riding on it. With the 76ers feeling the pressure of slipping behind the Celtics for the first time this season, Evan Turner answered the challenge with quit...

76ers Top Wilt, Rout Warriors 105-83.
Posted on 3 Mar 2012 by Mike Rapine.
The Philadelphia 76ers came into Friday night’s bout with the Golden State Warriors with two goals in mind. First off, and most importantly, the 76ers needed to take care of business against the Warriors and if all went well with that, then they needed to find a way to celebrate and honor the 50th anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game. The 76ers didn’t waste any time putting aw...

76ers Snap Streak, Beat Pistons 97-68
Posted on 28 Feb 2012 by Mike Rapine.
Maybe the All-Star Break was all the Philadelphia 76ers needed to get out of their five-game slump. Maybe, and most likely, playing the Detroit Pistons in the first game back also helps. The 76ers (21-14) used their fresh, quick legs to run the Pistons (11-25) right out of their own building from the start, cruising to a 97-68 victory on the road. The 76ers simply enforced their will on the Pis...
