Sixers '10-'11 Season Thread

[Sgt PSN]

how soon until they pass the heatles

First round?

[ice grillin you]

they wont pass the heat but they could catch the hawks...they are only 3.5 back

knicks hawks and sixers could battle for 5,6,7

two weeks from friday they are at miami

they also have one game each left with the hawks and knicks both at home

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Feeling good about my 100:1 bet on the Sixers winning the East.

[MDS]

problem for the sixers is they have a brutal 7 game stretch coming up

3 games in 4 tonight concludes tonight vs. durant
then fri vs. boston, then sat @ mil and then they hit the west coast

3-4 sounds real nice

[ice grillin you]

knicks and hawks have equally tough schedules coming up...plus the hawks appear to be cooked...think they are 3-9 in their last 12


JUST WIN BABY!!

[MDS]

would you rather be @ orl or @ mia in round 1

for whatever reason the magic just seem to have the sixers number...id almost rather go through miami.

[ice grillin you]

i dont think they beat either....but easily at miami....they probably get swept by the magic

i wont say miami is a perfect matchup because anyone with wade and lebron cant be that...but in terms of strengths the sixers match up with them as good as you can since the heat have no front line that can hurt the sixers...the sixers offense can really struggle when they cant get to the rim...and theres no one on miami that can prevent that

they'd win 1 game in a series with Orlando, 2 in a series with Miami. I'd prefer Miami and would probably go to a game or 2 in that series.

I'll take a 7 game series vs any team without a domininant big man every time and I'd especially take Miami over Orlando.  Sixers still most likely lose against Miami in a 7 game series, but it really wouldn't be that far fetched for them to steal the series.  The Heat struggle against teams above .500, they have no bench depth, they struggle in the 4th qtr and their half empty arena doesn't provide much of a home court advantage.  They're still far superior to the Sixers talent wise but I think the Sixers play better as a team and would love the opportunity of knocking out the most hyped up team ever.  Could you imagine how fired up Collins would have these guys if they face Miami at any point in the postseason?

The Sixers would sweep the Magic.

Seriously, some of you are really overrating the Magic.  Without Howard they're a dead-bang lottery team.  With him they're middling at best.

it has more to do with them having the Sixers number than it does with how good they are compared to the rest of the league.

Dead bang?  Sounds sexy.

we are overrating them because we think they can win a first round playoff series?
