By Andrew Tonight, we get yet another highly-decent chance to string together three W's in a row, a feat which has thusfar eluded the Sixers this season.

By Andrew What this means for the Sixers long term, if anything, remains to be seen. But I love watching this team with Iverson as a contributor, and not just for the spectacle--the team just seems looser, more energized and far more coherent with him doing his part. Even if Philly doesn't end up sniffi...

By dberri The last time the Philadelphia 76ers won an NBA championship the team’s point guard was Maurice Cheeks.  And as I noted a few months ago (see What Ever Happened to ”Fo’-Fi’-Fo’”?) only Moses Malone produced more wins for the Sixers during that championship season.

A few months ago, the Sixers were a happy story -- the young team that almost slayed the Pistons, and then tacked on the best free agent of the bunch. Now? Well, I didn't even go looking, and today I came across two suggestions that Maurice Cheeks won't last long as head coach.

By David Friedman The 76ers posted the highest scoring average ever for an NBA champion and the third highest in league history (125.2 ppg). They ended the Celtics' record run of eight straight championships and in 1980 they were selected as the greatest team in NBA history. Wilt Chamberlain insisted that this was the most talented team he ever played on and, considering that he was flanked by two other Top 50 players (Hal Greer and Billy Cunningham) plus Chet Walker (who should be in the Hall of Fame) and Luke Jackson (a powerful inside player whose career was cut short by injury) it is hard to disagree. 9) 1970-71 Milwaukee Bucks (66-16; 12-2) 8) 1982-83 Philadelphia 76ers (65-17; 12-1) 7) 1988-89 Detroit Pistons (63-19; 15-2)   [read the full post]

By David Friedman Before the game, TNT analysts Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith critiqued Iverson's game by saying that even though he puts up decent assists numbers he does not really have a point guard mentality; they asserted that he compiles assists primarily because he has the ball so much but that he only passes out of necessity when all of his shooting options are exhausted. There is some validity to that point of view, although I think that it is more apt to say that about guys like Stephon Marbury and Steve Francis. While there is no doubt that Iverson has a shoot first mentality, he has also shown throughout his career that he is willing and able to not only pass out of necessity but to create scoring opportunities for his teammates provided that they ar...   [read the full post]
