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...

Andre Miller shines in return, ends Sixers win streak
Posted on 18 Jan 2012 by Michael Thibault.
Andre Miller scored 28 points and added 8 rebounds and 10 assists off the bench for the Denver Nuggets to end the Philadelphia 76ers 3 game win streak. Miller hit clutch shots down the stretch and eventually the game winner in overtime to put the Sixers away. Once again, the Sixers bench shined which has become a recurring theme this season, as Thaddeus Young scored 22 and Evan Turner added 20...

Are the Sixers the real deal?
Posted on 17 Jan 2012 by Michael Thibault.
We are now a few weeks into the NBA season, and the 76ers are the surprise of the league, starting the season 10-3 and unbeaten at home. The question remains, can the Sixers keep it up? The schedule for the 76ers has been very friendly so far this season, with their highlight win of the season coming against the Indiana Pacers who were missing Danny Grainger. Their 7 game win streak ended last ...

EVEN THOUGH IT’S THE 1ST ROUND, PAT RILEY IS SMILING
Posted on 19 Apr 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
This is the Miami Heat team everyone has been waiting and wanting to see. They dominated the Sixers on Monday night, leading wire-to-wire. The final score was Miami 94Philadelphia 73, but it wasn't even that close. On a night where their leader, Dwyane Wade, was not 100 percent due to migraine issues, the rest of the team picked up the slack. For the second playoff game in a ro...

Sixers Continue to Fade Down Stretch as Comeback Vs Knicks Falls Short
Posted on 6 Apr 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
It would have been the best comeback of the year and in one of the most important games of the year. Being down the whole game, the Sixers energy level in the 4th quarter was insane. After making an incredible comeback to actually go up by a point thanks to Elton Brand but especially Thaddeus Young, the Sixers then had a wide open 3 to go up for. After Jodie Meeks' three rattled in and out, Ton...

Collins or Karl – Coach of Year
Posted on 5 Apr 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
Do not confuse the purpose of the Coach of the Year Award. Player of the Year, Team of the Year, Rookie of the Year, Scorer of the Year, Defender of the Year or Sixth Man of the Year are all VERY different awards. Coach of the Year really comes down to a very exclusive handful of top candidates. Popovich Thibodeau Phil Jackson and his (yawn) Lakers have posted 55 wins while San Antonio’s Gr...

Sixers Hold Down High Paced Rockets
Posted on 30 Mar 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
It was a Kyle Lowry homecoming, and he was certainly playing like it was his home court in the first half. The North Philadelphia and Villanova product was raining 3′s and forcing Jrue Holiday to turn the ball over. Then in the second half, specifically the 4th quarter, the Sixers started clamping down on defense and executing on offense. Jrue Holiday and Thad Young sparked the Sixers and...

Sixers Come Back But Falter in OT Against Jazz
Posted on 14 Mar 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
I'm not sure how to perceive this game. Should I applaud them for being down 18 at half but then showing heart on the road and coming back to send it into overtime? Should I be angry that the Sixers actually took a lead and had a shot to win it before going to overtime? I'll take both sides and be happy with their effort because against the Bucks they fell apart, but the Jazz they showed real l...

Sixers Earn Biggest Win of Year, Hold Off Celtics
Posted on 11 Mar 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
Coming down the stretch I thought “here we go again”. This game was different though, the Sixers defense was unbelievable. Not just in the last 5 minutes but the whole game. Combine that with the lucky running finger-roll that Andre Iguodala threw in to ice the game, and that is a perfect recipe for an upset. Ray Allen only had 5 points and didn't hit his first bucket til the 4th qu...

Yet Another Late Game Choke By 76ers
Posted on 9 Mar 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
With a 5 point lead and under 1:30, I said the Sixers just have to score once to win this game. Their next four possessions went like this: Shot clock violation, Lou Williams tough-shot fade-away miss, Iguodala air ball, and Iguodala charging call with 2 seconds left. Meanwhile, the Thunder run a play for Durant and he hits a 3 pointer with 6 seconds left to tie the game, even though everyone a...

Sixers Continue Winning Ways With Easy Victory Against Pacers
Posted on 8 Mar 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
The Sixers under Doug Collins kind of remind me of the Pistons teams that were good for all those years, but everyone on the team is young instead of a solid veteran. They play good defense, they hustle like they are still playing college basketball, and they just continue winning. The main difference besides the age is they don't have the one guy who can make the big shot when they need it lik...

Sixers Put 34 Point Beating On Hawks
Posted on 8 Feb 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
Coming in, it was one of the ” we owe them” games. One of the many games the Sixers blew at the end. Last time they were outscored by 18 in the final 5 min and lost by 5. This time it would be different. The Sixers got up big to start and DIDN'T let that lead slip away. Another total team effort, and on the opposite side, a lack of effort. The Hawks who had recently passed Orlando t...
