i'll definitely take a 7 game winning streak *without* elton brand being healthy, but it's a shame they lost a close one today against the mavs. they seem to be playing better. i like louis williams. iggy needs to continue to improve if they're going to have a chance at a post season appearance, but i still don't know that they belong there yet.

then again it's only january. let's go sixers!


I actually really like their team, especially defensively. I don't think they're contending for a title, but I think they'll get a lower seed and could cause problems for one of the top 3. Miller is playing great. They're tough inside even without Brand. Only disappointment really is Dalembert.

he sticks out like a sore thumb. i think dalembert literally translates to "he who fouls out".

I have to rectify the fact that there hasn't been a post in this section in almost a month, sorry

My Hawks look hot at home, terrible on the road. The loss at the Q on Saturday was horribly depressing and a real wake up call

The Sixers are getting hot too, and I feel they could cause some serious headaches for either Orlando or Atlanta, should they surpass Miami. They scare the hell out of me

And still, I just have a gut feeling that this is LeBron's year, that they're going to win it all

the sixers have definitely been on a ride but i don't know how they'll be in the playoffs, even if they do get that 5th spot. they have a cake walk the next two games (home against twolves and charlotte) and their april schedule is light, except for having to play boston and detroit one more time.

i'm trying to keep my expectations low, as usual. but it's nice to see them above .500 for more than...like, a day.

Dare I say that they're a better team without Elton Brand?

What about the Baron Davis signing? That was pretty bad.

Good point. That Clippers team is just ridiculously bad. I haven't seen a team that has packed it in so obviously in a long time. Pretty much every game is a blowout

fuckin classic sixers limping into the playoffs. i know charlotte's a bit improved but you have to win these games...i don't want them playing the magic in the first round OR celtics.

I don't know, you're really stepping out on a limb there.

It has to be Brand right? Either way its funny (or depressing for you Warrior fans) how badly the Clippers, Warriors, and Sixers all got fucked by their big FA signings.
