2006 - 2007 Sixers Season Thread

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

The Oden/Pierce/Rondo trio will be fun for the Dalembert/Iguodala/Miller trio to defend.

[SD_Eagle5]

Somebody needs to take Andre Miller out for the season. Nothing serious, something like a broken ankle will do.

Big loss tonight to a shtein team like Golden State.

[ice grillin you]

would be better if the celtics lost tho....without pp they truly are horrific....btw rajon rondo is doin his part 23 6 and 6 tonite and last ten games he has been learning how to play in this league...still cant believe dook went in the 20's

[Dillen]

Iguodala had a triple double. 25 points, 13 assists, 10 rebounds.

[BigEd76]

damn....help from the refs at the end of regulation to send it to OT, but the Sixers won anyway 

Dalembert = 14 pts, 17 rebounds, 4 blocks, 2 assists, 1 foul

Iguodala with 23/7/15

[SD_Eagle5]

This team is showing signs of improvement.
Any ideas?
On how we can get worse? How about a series of fines for good play? Maybe a thirty-thousand dollar bonus for the guy voted least valuable player

[BigEd76]

take away their hot water

[MDS]

Bullshtein. Adding Durant or Oden would make this team a playoff team next year.

Dalembert
Oden/Durant
Carney/FA
Igy
Miller

Sounds good for the 7th seed in the East. Except it's an up and coming 7th seed, not a we'd just be better off going into the lottery 7th seed of the past few years.

[SD_Eagle5]

The Nuggets lost again tonight and are sitting at .500 (23-23) Iverson's been out the last 4 games with an ankle injury. That pick would probably be in the 15-20 range right now.

Barkley admits huge losses, big gains while gambling
Associated Press

PHOENIX -- Basketball Hall of Famer Charles Barkley admits he has a gambling problem, but said Monday that he's several thousand dollars richer after returning from Las Vegas.

In an interview with Phoenix television station KTVK, Barkley said he won "about $700,000" over the weekend.

"That was all profit [from] blackjack and I bet on the Super Bowl. I had the Colts," Barkley added. "I played a lot of blackjack."

Barkley did not say how much be bet on Sunday's game in which Indianapolis beat the Chicago Bears 29-17 in Miami.

In an ESPN interview in May 2006, Barkley estimated that he'd lost about $10 million gambling over the years.

He said Monday that he lost $2.5 million "in a six-hour period" one night last year.

"It's a stupid, bad habit. I have a problem," Barkley said of his gambling. "But the problem is when you can't afford it. I can afford to gamble. I didn't kill myself when I lost two and half million dollars ... I like to gamble and I'm not going to quit."

Barkley, who lives in the Phoenix area, was elected to the Hall of Fame last year.

He averaged 22.1 points and nearly 12 rebounds in a 16-year career that included stops in Philadelphia, Phoenix and Houston. He was the league's MVP in 1993 with the Suns, and he won gold at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics as part of the original U.S. Dream Team.

Wow.  Just wow.

I wonder how many strokes Jordan gives him when they play golf for a $1,000,000 nassau.
