My jaw just dropped watching the end of the Sixers/Nets game. yet another tough luck loss for us. 1/30th of a second. Hysterical. Thats what missing 14 ft's will do to ya.

just a thought. If Iggy makes the first ft at the end of the game, he can miss the second on purpose and they win the game. This team has lost more than its share of close ones. Hope they are battle tested for the playoffs.

They will be lucky to win a game

Im just glad Devin Harris is out of Dallas.
Got tired of watching him harass Parker.
Some serious jets on that guy.

How come?

If anything, I would say they have a shot to go far in the playoffs. They have either beaten or went down to the wire with the best this league has to offer. I know the playoffs is a different game altogether, but they can battle it out with the elite. Marreece Speights and Thaddeus Young are getting me back to being a fan of this team. Now if we could only unload Andre "As pitiful shot selector as they come" Iguadola and Samuel "Izell Jenkins" Dalembert, we would be okay. The time to do that was this offseason (esp after Iggy's horrid display in teh playoffs) and we dropped the ball. Elton Brand who??? This team will be good for years to come IMO.

How come? Because they stink? Or they will most likely play Cleveland, Boston or Orlando in the first round? Do you really think they have a prayer of beating any of those tams more than once? Dr. J and Moses Malone aint walkin thru that door...

Or they can pull it together and pull a first round matchup against ATL, MIA, or MIL...I truly think they are better than the teams that I mentioned and would give the teams that you mention a run for their money, even with a chance at beating them. Cleveland is a mediocre team away from home, and they would have to play games away from Quicken Loans. Boston would give us fits, sure. They've played the Magic down to the wire in both games, games that could've went either way. Dont overlook these guys and throw out their chances just yet. This is a WHOLE different ball club under DiLeo than it wsa under Cheeks. DiLeo is rotating these guys masterfully (boy am I going to hear $hit for saying this), and getting the young guys some quality time late in the games. I think they are going to make a nice stretch run heading into the playoffs and land witht he 4,5, or 6 seed. I, for one, am excited about the rest of this year. It's still early but am eager to see if they pull it together and rise in the ranks. If you are still adamant about their chances, or lack there of, come playoff time, we can possibly make a little wager. I know of a few Cheesesteak joints that travel well. I want some more autographs.

Orlando without J. Nelson is very possible. (5-4 without him)
Not the others though at not Orlando with a healthy Jameer.

Iguidalaiguana is OK by me.
