There's no way in hell it happens, but i'd just like to point out that Boston pulled it off. For a long time, nobody wanted to play there either. Someone could argue that maybe Boston's legacy had something to do with it, but it was almost 20 years, and guys like Dwight Howard don't remember that stuff. Not to mention, while they aren't the Lakers/Celtics, the sixers have a decent historical legacy.Blackace said:
Anyway, my point is that while the sixers arent the lakers, knicks, or somewhere like Miami with nice weather, they aren't Toronto or memphis either
Sadly, the draft that where they had the #2 pick was a 1 player draft, so we're in for a decade of mediocrity

Lakers need to be careful to start the 3rd. Gave all the momentum up to New Orleans.
Damn, when Bynum came out the defense went to shit. But the offense was just so stupid. Bad shots. Pau needs to dunk that, too.
Hopefully, Kobe doesn't force it. Lakers need to start the 3rd off strong, otherwise they'll lose.
edit: Not sure the big deal about CP3 gettin by Kobe. Kobe is a 6'6 SG. It's kind of tough to guard guys that much smaller than you.

Well, that half is what happens when Ariza plays like a god and Kobe plays like a pile of shit.
We are fuuuuuucked if Kobe continues to play like this and our bigs continue to get into foul trouble. Utterly fucked...

Kobe thinks it´s a 10:45pm Staples time start.
He´ll be fine.
(at least i hope so).

He needs to make some of those shots, though. but the fucking goaltending should give him 2 points! Refs obviously trying to create a dramatic situation!

The actual city part of Philly is nice....but everything else....is well...suspect.
We have to sell the town as a blue-collar, tough town that needs tough people and that if you win here they will love you...That's not a great sell.

The Pau-Odom line-up has been the lineup gotten beaten up on tonight. Surprised how it hasn't been able to score. Fouls for Drew are going to be key here, I suppose.
Just not executing well for about 4 minutes. Also rebounding. Some have been bad bounced, but others are just not securing those boards.

I disagree. Might seem like that because of basketball, but in football, baseball, and hockey, they spend a ton and stars want to play there. In fact, baseball players took less money to come because they liked the city (and not guys from here originally). Again, its no new york/california/florida, but its not cleveland either.Blackace said:
Some of the areas around the city are consistently labeled as among the richest and/or best places to live in the country. The problem is that the inner city is just really ghetto
Its not a city wide thing, its more of a sixers thing. The other teams have no problems attracting not just free agents, but superstar free agents

All aboard! The Love train!
I don't think so. The Wolves biggest free agent move ever was probably Mike James. That's rough.CherryWoodFuton said:

NO having the points advantage in the paint is just fucking embarrassing.
We have all this size and we've taken 9 3 pointers in one half.

Kobe needs to keep trying to facilitate. A lot of times when he has bad shooting starts he has a tendency to keep trying and shoots us out of the game.
edit: this is reminding me a lot of Game 1, where we were getting poor rotations on Paul.
