Sixers at Bobcats open thread 11/24/08

Philadelphia 76ers at Charlotte Bobcats, Nov 24, 2008 4:00 PM PST


Tonight is another game the Sixers should win, but this team has been less than predictable this season.

They play the Bobcats. They kind of suck. The Sixers need to find their groove before the Magic and Celtics game. Hopefully tonight's the night.

TV: NBA TV

Record: 7-6

Prediction: A lot-A little Sixers

This is an open thread.

I have comcast and CSN is showing the flyers but the Sixers are on CN8 or NBATV.

by Ben16 on Nov 24, 2008 3:53 PM PST up reply actions  

Apparently it's on NBATV

Why they picked the Bobcats and Sixers to be on NBATV is beyond me, but I’ll take it.

Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.

Who says Lou and Iggy put up good numbers tonight?

One can only hope, especially since Iggy is killing my fantasy team.

I tried to pick him up earlier

I found out he was drafted though.

I picked him up after i dumped duhon for john salmons (i had tonly allen and needed a sg) but then dude tells me he accidentally approved trade and i got Westbrook the MOMENT the trade was made

And now i can get ben gordon (and ben wallace) but have to give up marion and sessions and that’s too much (I like sesions, marion i’m willing to deal :)

by jemagee on Nov 24, 2008 4:29 PM PST up reply actions  

Myabe he’ll give me lamarcus aldridge instead of wallace for marion and sessions :)

Nice

Marion’s having a horrible year.

by Jordan Sams on Nov 24, 2008 4:33 PM PST up reply actions  

We’ll see – marion/chandler for gordon/aldridge

I still have kaman and gasol (marc) as centers, so even though i think i’m getting short end – i think i’m improving at SG markedly.

Plus – it’s a keeper league

by jemagee on Nov 24, 2008 4:36 PM PST up reply actions  

Aldridge will probably break out here soon.

Wilson Chandler?

by Jordan Sams on Nov 24, 2008 4:37 PM PST up reply actions  

Tyson Chandler – no way i get that deal with wilson chandler

He upgrades at PF (and possibly center, but i think chandler has peaked) and i upgrade at SG plus i’m now swamped with PGs when the duhon/salmons trade gets reversedd

duhon
mo williams
augustin
westbrook

by jemagee on Nov 24, 2008 4:38 PM PST up reply actions  

Yeah that's a solid trade.

I’m not a fan of Marion.

The problem with the five players (according to yahoo) on the court right now is that there is no stabilizing force – no one to slow them down and take over – there’s 3 of those guys on the roster, miller brand and iguodala – Mo has to find a way to make sure ONE OF THEM is on the court at all times – this five worries me a lot (as listed on yahoo) because it’s

Lou
Willie
Thad
Reggie
Mo

Don’t like that five toghether

by jemagee on Nov 24, 2008 4:43 PM PST reply actions  

Me neither.

No true point guard either.

Andre isn’t a true point but compared to the 5 on the floor now he’s a calming influcence

It's becoming more clear with every game

that this team is at it’s best when Andre Iguodala is on the court.

It really is amazing how every time Willie Green comes into the game we are outscored. You’d think Mo would be able to read the signs, being an NBA coach and all.

Mo’s a bad coach – always remember

Why is reggie evans still in the game – mo’s a bad coach
why does willie green play more than louis williams – mo’s a bad coach
why don’t the sixers run more plays for thad young – mo’s a bad coach
why doen’t the sixers utuilize the secondary skills of andre iguodala – mo’s a bad coach

Just remember that – it usually answers most questions

Well firstly, hey everyone. It’s nice to meet everybody and I’m sorry my first comment will be negative but I’ve seen Mo Cheeks for 4 years as a Sixers head coach. And I have the same feelings for him as RickyPryor did for Dalembert. Fire the dunce, sooner rather then later.
