Sixer Shout Out



Just don't want it to go unnoticed that the red-hot 76ers have gone 11-2 in March, including wins over Boston (in Boston), Detroit (in Detroit), San Antonio, Phoenix, and Denver. They have some tough games ahead (Phoenix and Detroit again and two vs. Cleveland), but a fifth or even fourth seed in the playoffs is within reach. [knock on wood] A young team, but lots of fun talent in Philly.

  • Haven't seen them play, but the record says more than even the pundits who are waking up to the Sixers--those are some impressive wins. Mo Cheeks--coach of the year?

    I'm starting to get a little worried, because I don't want Cleveland to fall out of the 4/5 slot in the playoff seeding. No offense to Philly, DC, and Orlando, I just don't want any part of Lebron in the playoffs after last year's escapade. Let the Cavs and Celtics deal with one another befor the final round, I say.

  • I too fear the Cavs. 29 of the last 30 points is some scary shit.

    As for the Sixers, I have been most impressed by their D. Samuel Dalembert is ruling the paint, and that is allowing Philly's perimeter guys to be super aggressive. And how bout that Andre Miller?

    Mo is a great candidate for coach of the year, but do not forget Nate McMillan in that conversation.

  • Yes, but I think that the Celtics stifling D will be too much for LeBron and co. Never know, though, you are right, that's some scary stuff.
