Here is a portion of the story:

For the Sixers to take the next step, which would mean winning a round in the playoffs, they'd do well to follow the Pistons' lead.

"They were all the things we wanted to be," said Collins, adding to the strengths of the mid-decade Pistons. "They really counted on each other and were tough-minded.

"I think we have the pieces to be a team like that. This might be a year where we have seven guys in double figures, which I hope we can do."
