Sixers 55 Bucks 36

Box Score

Brew Hoop

The Sixers outscored the Bucks by 19 points in the second half. The were passionate, they showed heart, and displayed killer instinct against an inferior team.

Sure, the first half was ugly -- doesn't matter. I've used the saying, "Bad teams find a way to lose games," to describe tough Sixers losses earlier this season. Tonight, they banned together and refused to let that happen. Maybe their not so bad after all?

Here's the updated standings:

 

Seed Team Winning %
5th Philadelphia 76ers (39-35) .527
6th Miami Heat (39-36) .520

 

Big games from Lou, M16 and Donny-Ice in the absence of Thad.

Considering I only caught the final 13 minutes live, that's all I have for now.

I'm about to review the tape and track the "Stats of the Future."

Until then...

If you only watched the last 13 minutes, consider yourself blessed. The 1st 3 quarters will make fans of either team want to put their eyes out. That ainful to watch, unless you enjoy watching fouls…

But wins where you hold off a bad team when you are off are underrated. Good win, its its own bastard step-child kind of way.

The Cavs lost to the Wizards tonight.
The Lakers lost to Charlotte this week.
The Celtics needed 2 OT’s to beat the Bobcats, in Boston!

Whether you’re a good team or a bad team, most games aren’t going to be fun to watch for a full 48 minutes.

The 13 minutes I saw tonight was beautiful. Tenacious defense. Intensity. Passion. That’s all I needed to see.

Great win!

I wasnt able to watch all of it. Had to leave during 3rd. 5 seed for now. Great job “manning up” tonight!

It wasn’t pretty, but I think at this point in the season, we’re well past where style points matter.

Probably hard to watch for fans of both teams. Just ugly, foul plagued basketball.

I’m not complaining about the result. Any win is a good one , even if it was hard on the eyes.
