A coherent one anyway.

Maybe the my most entertaining recap of the year will be published as a FanPost later tonight.

Depending on how the night goes.

Thad + Bill

Thad was +7 on the floor, best on the team.

Bill played 23 minutes, which is 3 more than Jordan wanted. He was -4.

former Pennsylvania boy here. I may live in the golden state now but my heart still belongs with those Sixers. That was one game I would have loved to have been at. Incredible ending. I bet that arena was rocking big time. I’d love to see them win the ~~series~~ whole thing.

Hahaha sweeet :D

Well done guys :D I am starting to get as happy for you guys as I am when my Celtics win :P

I really hope you can keep this up cuz it doesn’t really matter whether you win by 50 or by 5 every time: win. Get the W. That’s what counts!

So, well done :D WOOHOO :D

Don't get your hopes up, You will still see Orlando in the 2nd round

Yeah they did the same thing to me last year when they played the Pistons. Thought we were gonna get the sixers in the next round. Well we all know what happened next.

Oh wait a minute.

These are not last years pistons.

And these are not last years sixers….

I threw up a little in my mouth...

Getting ready to replace the M in Magic and replace with with a TR. You know what we called the team when T-Wack was running around…

I am about to go insane

With the lack of respect we are still getting people are putting more of the blame on the Magic then us which I think we have defended the Magic the right way by taking Lewis and Turkoglu out. I don’t care how many points Superman gets as long as they don’t get a bunch of 3’s.

by The Legend on Apr 25, 2009 8:06 AM PDT reply actions

get used to it Legend

all throughout the baseball playoffs the phils were underdogs everytime… nobody gave us credit, oh well, look at em now, world EFFING champs…!!!
lets hope the 76ers can pull out some more wins and hopefully we all cheer them on to a championship…

I am used to it

But it is f’ing old.

Last night on the ESPN bsketbll show, they were showing thads stats but had the cavs logo associated with his name.

There does some to be some sort of Philadelphia disrespect out there…i don’t think it’s as extreme as others do but I do notice it…for instance – the highlights of a couple of these games seems primarily focused on the Magic, i’ve only seen the SVG presser highlights, not DILeo

"Someone created the box score," Morey says, "and he should be shot."

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

Last year was pissed off by disrepect

This year i don’t care. Last year showed they have to close the deal and win the series before we should even think about any national attention.

And, I do think things are breaking the Sixers way with Orlando and Boston weakened. But now they have to take advantage… Just enjoying the ride.

BTW, despite the missed FT’s, so relived/glad that Iguodala has bounced back from last year’s playoff nightmare. If for nothing else, makes this ears playoffs worthwhile
