So Andre Iguodala finally got going a little in game 6 against the Detroit Pistons by scoring 21 points on 8-13 shooting. The rest of the team shot 37.9%. That gives you 81 points, and not nearly enough to beat the surging Pistons. 18 turnovers and 13 assists do not a good game make. Iguodala [...]

Your Philadelphia 76ers have had quite a 2nd half. They’ve been 7-4 since the all-star break, had a 5 game winning streak going into said all-star game, and have beaten teams such as the Mavericks, Magic and Suns. However, there’s been a problem, in my mind, which has become quite apparent over the [...]

The Sixers honored former GM Pat Williams, G Franklin Edwards, C Clemon Johnson, C Earl Cureton, F Reggie Johnson, and current coach and former All-Star guard Maurice Cheeks.

Whoa. Hold [...]
