YesTP

76ers up 6

[Warlord23]

Finley has to start hitting some of these jumpers or we have no chance at all. Also I'm wondering why Pop is not mixing in the occassional zone; it worked well against Detroit for a while.

Manu needs to make 5 back to back threes in the 4th to top his last 76er visit.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I've always thought he was pretty good at the midrange jumper. Especially the turnaround. Maybe it's just me.

I'd say he's a good post-up guard and that his turnaround is sweet, but his pull-up/face-up is usually not so good. So we're both right. Great player though, very composed.

When was the last time a Spur hit a momentum-turning shot??? Feels like forever...

We've usually been on the receiving end of those momentum turning shots.

Can we get a stop?

[Don Quixote]

Thank you. I'm just sick of these people who insult our players. And yes, we are playing like turds. But we are trying, sadly.

It's like those kids you used to beat at 'ball and then they'd say "but I wasn't really trying", so you'd say "try then", and they would, and you'd beat them again, so they'd still say they weren't. It's disingenuous and disgusting. Show some dang respect for your own team.

Um ... this never happened to me. I was the one who was getting his butt handed to him with regularity. But enough about me.

Yes, there are some fans who are under the impression that all the Silver & Black has to do is "try harder," "hustle more," and (my favorite) "want it more badly" and they will win and we can all schedule the parade down the Riverwalk. Besides being impossible to quantify, those notions are also wrong. Were they not trying in Game 7 vs. Dallas? Or in the 0.4 game? What about in 00 without Timmy in the playoffs? No, they lost because they weren't the better team.

Miller > Manu

[twincam]

ok now, rebounding is really one of the easist things to do in a game of basketball....but oh well

[remingtonbo2001]

BS Call.

KT making mistakes

[Don Quixote]

Wonderful control of his body. He's incredible.

Is anybody going to mention his hands?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

we've been outscored every single quarter

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

KT making up for it

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We've usually been on the receiving end of those momentum turning shots.

Lately, yeah.

C'mon bench, show us some spirit!

[greens]

I don't think it's a good line up when there is only one of the Big Three playing...no one else is making any shots.

Although, Bruce has been solid today with his shooting.

Now both TD/Manu are on the bench, while TP is playing...

[remingtonbo2001]

Setup Vaughn for the 3 point shot. That's exactly what we need.

What do you call that brilliant play...10 DOWN.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Vaughn does NOT belong behind the 3 pt line!

[greens]

Now TP/TD out with Manu in...

[duncan228]

Is anybody going to mention his hands?

Best in the business.

Vaughn > Finley

Finley setting up picks for the opposing team players.

[Findog]

C'mon Sixers - don't postpone possible love

[Spurs Brazil]

That's terrible

[remingtonbo2001]

I don't know how I feel.
