2012 - 2013 Philadelphia 76ers Regular Season Thread

[QB Eagles]

Pre-game Collins basically said Bynum looked terrible in practice and is nowhere close to coming back.

[SD]

This has to be Collins last season. They need to rid themselves of ET and tank for the next few seasons.

i know he so badly wants to bring a winner to philly but they are years and years away from that if ever.....why at his age would be put up with this nonsense

i agree trade et...PLEASE

be really really bad next year and hopefully jabari parker is the real deal

It's tiring to keep on hoping to tank for draft picks.

Can we get a farging winner? Jesus. I want a long playoff run like 2001/

[ice grillin you]

its the nba....thats all you can do

Ah, 2001.  Seems like only, well only 12 years ago.

I still watch game 1 of the Championship at Staples every so often.  Tyron Lue, how sweet was that.

Game 7 of this series is probably my favorite Sixers games of all time and this series in general is seriously underrated in terms of its greatness but doesn't get the credit since there was no type of rivalry brewing before or after it. 

[ice grillin you]

i went to that game 7 as well as game 1 of that series....great stuff

i dont think it gets the credit as much because...and a lot of people forget this...it wasnt the conference finals...

on top of that the conference finals was also a seven game slugfest where ray allen and ai went head to head....i actually think iverson was more impressive in the milwaukee series because of the hip injury...he completely missed game 2 or 3 and then was hobbled the rest of the way...shouldnt have played game 5 when he only had like 10 pts and they went down 3-2....no one thought they were going to milwaukee and winning much less going to the finals...but the last two games of that series imo were bubba's best ever...somehow he willed in back to back 40 pt games to send them to the finals

game seven of that bucks series is on my short list of best sporting events ive ever been to....ray allen hurt his knee and the sixcers won easily but because of that the last half of the fourth quarter was one big celebration with everyone goin nuts and the whole arena booming out beat la chants

chills

they won game 5 of the ecf...i was there. amazing game. i remember the place going crazy when anthony mason missed the layup and when esnow hit the game winner. they lost 6 in milwaukee, then of course 7 was the shtein.

i also went to game 5 of the raptors series when ai dropped like 54. i think he got his mvp trophy that night. good lord those were farging awesome days.

youre probably thinking of this: they were down 2-1 on the road in both series and had to win 4 to stay alive.

[DH]

Pretty sure that was Game 1. I was there too and somehow was seated next to Bill Cosby. I'd kill for that place to have that kind of energy again.

farg you Bynum. farg you, farg you, farg you.

[MDS]

who would remember better? you are the man whose been stone cold sober for 25 years.

thanks

[DH]

I was talking about the game where AI scored 50+. It was Game 2.

Doug "Vucevic had 19 boards. Spencer had one"

[PhillyPhreak54]

Wow Doug is done with these dudes. Said some guys weren't even sweating early on

[MDS]

To be blown out at home by Orlando is maddening. No criticism you voice could be strong enough. Sixers fans deserve much better than this.

more confetti and t shirt tosses!
