completely unrelated
SBNation has a new blog and I think it’s a brilliant concept. you guys should check it out.
Too many games, charing full price for games where starters usually don’t play more than half the games?
That seems like a bad idea.

Good 1st 8 min. Horrible since. PO so boggled down Darko just stole a pass and went coast to coast.

iguodala hasn't sat in 14 minutes.
so that might answer your question about eddie jordan’s intentions.
I'm waiting to see who can stabilize the team when they have these downturns
Last year Miller helped break them out of these lulls. This year we will see.

This is not the "Princeton Offense"

But they will need a bench

Here's what I think
I think the princeton offense will show how low the basketball IQ of many players on the sixers are…more than we possibly though – and that’s going to be disappointing

Sam, Ivey..
But what about Thad, Brand, Speights, Lou… not sure where their BB IQ will put them.
http://www.phillyarena.com - Philly sports forum/blog
I think we’ll find out.
Especially with Lou – you know I have little to no faith in his ability to run any offense – so we’ll see.
I worry about willie too

If Jordan is to be blieved in the videos – it’s not difficult to learn just needs attention to detail and a good bball IQ – it shouldn’t take 20-25 games
and if it DOES – they should have been working on it all damn summer

I hate them because they’re the celtics and KG is a punk – adding Rasheed makes no didfference – but they aren’t winning the title – and i’m happy about that

They haven’t even installed all of the options yet. This will take a while.
…and then we will have to see who is a good a nd bad fit.
That’s partly why I have no expectations for this year,

I have expectations that they can grasp the basics – they are professional nba players

The Knicks might be bad...
but its still is a big step to run a new offense with success against NBA player. I’m sure they look OK in practice.
Also, NO PG ON THE ROSTER,
http://www.phillyarena.com - Philly sports forum/blog
Lou looks good.
But he didn’t play at all in the second quarter. It’s no coincidence that they had 3 turnovers when Lou was in and 14 when he was out.
Well Holiiday is a point guard
And you’re right in practice they have less NBA players than when they play a real team – what with sam ivey and willie around

Lo0ts of 19 year old PG's
And very few can lead an NBA team through a new offense.
http://www.phillyarena.com - Philly sports forum/blog
He’s not 19
and at 21 (22?) the sixers are asking him to do something he’s never done in his entire career as a basketball player.
I have very low expectations so he can’t suck them up that much :)

Not hating, a big fan
Just not really sure PG is his strength up to this point of his career. Certainly has shown good things this preseason.
http://www.phillyarena.com - Philly sports forum/blog
So the general gist i’m getting is that it’s better that we haven’t seen the games yet this pre season?

I think we should accept that Jrue isn’t going to get the number of minutes he deserves as a rookie under Eddie Jordan. Somewhere Wizards fans are saying, “I told you so.”
I hate when it’s done but I think this is one of those moments where tyhe GM needs to step in and take the coach aside and mention a few things.
Kid won’t get better if he don’t play.

He only won cause the americans with disabilities act allowed him to try a shot 50 times – and it STILL wasn’t better than Iguodalas behind the backboard dunk (that howard stole last year and got more praise for)
Nate Robinson would be a great harlem globetrotter – he’s an over rated nba player whose UPSIDE is spudd webb – and he’ll nefver get there because of his ego

Yeah I agree, that Iguodala shot was amazing.
BTW, I hate Howard in the dunk contest. I don`t think he`s all that talented, and the superman dunk wasn`t even a dunk if you watch it closely.
It’s not about dunks – it’s about showmanship

I just can`t get over the fact that the knicks are shooting 5-28 from the perimeter
and the sixers are still losing…
I also don`t understand how a coach is ok with a team putting up 28 three pointers in less than 3 quarters.
Cause when it works (like in phoenix) it’s a thing of beauty

You know a lot of coaches who change systems to fit their rosters – or change rosters to fit their systems? (Larry Brown for instance)
Keep that in mind when the sixers are still lost in the PO come mid season

Young puts him through the “spin cycle.”
Not “instant Korver” but has a Zumoff ring to it.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I really hope the coach can see how bad he stinks. A few minutes each game is fine and more if he is hot.

I have to share some stupidity.
So the UC System today decided to raise tuition rates ONLY if you major in engineering and business, the rationale is that it costs more to teach them (Huh?) and they’ll make more money when they get out of school.

Is it possible that the reason the sixers keep making these fourth quarter comebacks is that they put in their starters to try and ‘win’ while the other coach knows what a pre-season game is really about?
