PrintI still cannot get over what happened yesterday. Our boy Andre Iguodala has been all over ESPN. He's finally receiving the national recognition he deserves. Since game 2 isn't until Wednesday, let's bask in the glory of this one a little longer.
Click through for reactions via CSNPhilly. The best interview comes from Andre Miller. I've never seen him so happy.
Iguodala and DiLeo
Sweet Lou and Donny-Ice
Celestand and Henderson

Actually all I heard talk about was how the magic lost – and gave the game away – and dwight howard isn’t a ‘leader’ – and that SVG tends to be an overly dramatic girly man
Only person i saw giving the sixers credit was skip bayless – which made my skin crawl

Blocked shots — they look great, but unless you secure the ball afterward, you haven’t helped your team all that much.

Agreed
Although I did see that Van Gundy’s brother (on Mike and Mike, I think) said the Magic weren’t all that deep of a team and that many of the players hadn’t been playing at high levels for weeks, so that they lost last night wasn’t a huge surprise to him.
I'm with you.
No one gave the Sixers themselves credit, but I heard a lot of people crediting Andre for the shot — it’s hard not to.
Barkley said it was pure luck

I can't believe I agree with Jemele Hill on this, but
She pointed out that Howard, while he may be Superman, hasn’t really matured into a leader for his team—in that, he doesn’t want to be “the guy” who has the ball in important moments. Iguodala does and that maturation has come this year. He didn’t have it last year during the Pistons series.
Orlando is missing Nelson in a big way and if the Sixers can find a way to continue the perimeter defense and make Howard try to win games on his own, they actually might have a shot at this series.
Now I have to go throw up. She and Skip Bayless are the worst. I feel unclean when I agree with them on anything and it happened twice today.
She’s not so bad – of the twits on ESPN she isn’t the worst :)

I hate Skip.
Yet, I always look forward to what he has to say. That leads me to believe he’s doing his job.
He’s like bill simmons – older and uglier and getting paid better money probably

Skip, Jon Berry and Bill Walton
Have weekly meetings where they (Loosely using the term) BrainStorm, On how exactly they will enrage 90%of America and alienate the other 10% while still drawing fat pay checks.
Talk about a meeting you want to crash,

OOPS!

By the way.
I’m as optimistic as they come, but the Sixers have no chance in this series is Jameer Nelson is healthy. That said, who knows what happens if we have a healthy Elton.
The sixers have no chance unless the magic continue to shoot the 3 worse than the sixers – if that happens anything can happne
If i told you before the game the magic would shoot worse from the sixers thn the 3 you’d have lughed at me.
So celtics / bulls 115 – 115 with 12.3 left
