Sixers at Bulls open thread 12/02/08
Philadelphia 76ers at Chicago Bulls, Dec 2, 2008 5:30 PM PST
Tonight is round 2 vs. Derrick Rose and the Bulls. Stefanski seems pissed and tonight's game could be detrimental for coach Cheeks' future. That's just speculation though.
I haven't seen anything in the Sixers to think they're going to win tonight, but I'm still hopeful.
TV: Comcast SportsNet
Record: 7-10
Prediction: 101-92 Bulls

Yeah – that’s just historical – that’s not today – it’s too early for them to be up – usually up on yahooo about 30 minutes before the game

I'm home now, so I'll be looking for 'em.

Forgot to mention Blog a Bull
Their blogger is like the GodFather of the basketball blogs here at SBN. Always a good read.

Yeah
Same lineups.

Well since the other suggestion was willie green – had no desire to see green start

Almost forgot about the game.
I’m too busy looking at Playboy suites at the Palms to stay at.

8-8 looks sloppy.

22-11 Sixers.
They’re looking solid.

A strong first quarter gives me no confidence any more – getting home i see the sixsers have made 6 turnovers in the 2nd quarter…
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 6:24 PM PST reply actions
Yeah
That’s why I didn’t get too excited.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
The problem with Lou Williams is simple –
I have a theory on this connected to the sixers idiotic need to ‘force’ him to be a point guard – he has to relearn the game of basketball in a way never asked of him before last year and now he has the pressure of the big contract – the sixers have pretty much broken lou in my opinion – i hope by the time they realize what he is and isn’t he’ll be fixable
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 6:27 PM PST reply actions
This team is not fun to watch.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
You know – i’m very glad i didn’t give up on chris duhon in fantasy ball
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 6:38 PM PST reply actions
Yeah, he's a beast.
I wish D’Antoni was our coach.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
My fantasy stud David Lee ain't too shabby either.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
I don’t wish D’antoni was the sixers coach – they don’t have the right assets – and that system won’t win an nba chamiponship – ever – even with lebron
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 6:51 PM PST up reply actions
So far, so good. The typical blown double digit lead seems in order, lets hope that can be it for Mo.
As planned.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
I can’t think of any thing else to say – any more explanations – and more anything
This team just sucks

I know.
I’m running out of things to write about.

At least Iguodala is shooting better.

So the bulls commentators are talking about sam complaining

Derrick Rose is a man.

Someone tell ed snider i want a refund of my league pass purchase – i don’t care if i purchased it from cox

I want a refund on my Sam Dalembert, Lou Williams and Andre Iguodala jerseys.
They’re bad luck.

No comment.
Iggy has a season high!

God this wade commercial is asinine – has ANYONE ever said all that crap about wade?

DWade is annoying.
I like his game, but he’s annoying.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
I think the people who package him don’t market him as well as they market Lebron, and I understand it’s a part of his job – but the whole t-mobile campaign is just bad – and always has been to me
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 7:24 PM PST up reply actions
I agree on the T-mobile thing.

Him and Sam need to go.

Kaman being injured might help -= he’s out 2-3 weeks and i’m trying to decide whether to waive him or not
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 7:32 PM PST up reply actions
I wouldn't waive him.

I have Marc Gasol, Aldridge and Tyson Chandler – so i’m wavering – right now i’m going to hold onto him – is gordon playing tonight?

Eric Gordon has 3 BS tonight? You’re kidding me

Dwade 2.0.

That might be a stretch but he’s got some nice numbers tonight
And chris duhon back to back games with good assist numbers

Speights!!!!!
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
I’ve been in the kitchen doing dishes for the past 10 minutes or so – has speights looked as good as i think he has?
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 7:50 PM PST reply actions
A nasty putback slam.
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
But aside from that, some free throws – and an one where he made the free throw? And some good defensive plays?
BTW – with 2:52 left
Speights 18:01
Dalembert 11:54
Theo Ratliff 9:04
Evans – ZERO
Really?
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 7:53 PM PST up reply actions
No Reggie Evans tonight.

I just noticed that – was he active for the game – is he hurt – did they say something pregame?
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 7:53 PM PST up reply actions
He's active.

Speights getting crunch time minutes.
In place of Dalembert!!!!!
Where will you be when the Sixers hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy? Hopefully Liberty Ballers.
If speights finishes the game out i think he’ll have more minutes than Sam and Ratliff COMBINED – it might just be match ups – or maybe Mo is getting his head out of his ass a bit?
by jemagee on Dec 2, 2008 7:55 PM PST up reply actions
Matchups-no.
Cheeks fighting for his job-yes.
Good move.

He hit a wet spot – watch the rplay – find those ‘ball boys’ schmucks and whip them after the game

Does anybody else thinks he looks weird in his pic?
