Defense wins championships.
The cliche’ rings true and will for years to come. You can score at will but eventually you must stop someone.
Doug Collins said as much when meeting with the Philly media on Monday. The Sixers new coach said during his news conference and on WIP Radio with Howard Eskin and [...]

Doug Collins leads pack in Sixers coaching search

May 18th, 2010 · No Comments · NBA, Philadelphia 76ers

Doug Collins, the former Sixers guard, is on the verge of returning to coach the 76ers.
The man who coached Michael Jordan to his first playoff appearance would be a huge improvement over the drudge that’s been at the helm of the Sixers sinking ship the last two years. Toni DiLeo did just enough to get [...]

Sixers need to look at Woodson

May 17th, 2010 · 2 Comments · NBA, Philadelphia 76ers

The next coach of the Sixers can’t flop. He has to have a resume that includes rebuilding a sorry franchise. He has to be someone who can suffer through the bad times and rise to the occasion when an influx of young and veteran players arrive.

May 17th, 2010 · No Comments · NBA, Philadelphia 76ers

If you are one of the many fans who blame Sixers GM Ed Stefanski for the mess on Broad Street, Comcast Spectacor Chairman Ed Snider is not with you. Clearly, Snider and Peter Lukko are not ready to show Stefanski the door just yet.

Sixers chairman Ed Snider can deny the Larry Brown rumors all he wants, but does anyone really believe him?
You can’t. Not when the Suxers are the laughingstock of the Philly sports community. Not when Larry Brown is the only man who might be able to take us from the brink of [...]

March 27th, 2010 · No Comments · NBA, Philadelphia 76ers

Just when you thought things couldn’t get worse for the few still following this Sixers “season,” Sports Illutstrated takes us even lower.
The publication printed the following excerpt from a league scout:
“They are having dunk contests before games; they are running plays sloppily or not all the way through; and they aren’t listening to Eddie [...]

Sixers get pounded by Heat, better make trade

Maybe now the Crazy Eddies will get the delusional thoughts out of their heads. If Ed Stefanski and Eddie Jordan don’t realize that this Sixers team is not headed to the playoffs after tonight’s pathetic, apathetic 105-78 ass-whooping at the hands of the Miami Heat, then both should be sent to Loser’s [...]

Cavs rumors aside, Stoudemire could still come to Sixers

February 13th, 2010 · No Comments · NBA, Philadelphia 76ers

Hold on buying that plane ticket to Cleveland for Amare Stoudemire. According to ESPN.com, the deal to the Cavs is far from finished.
Several other teams are still in the running according to the site. Since Phoenix is infatuated with Andre Iguodala, we” infer that the Sixers are still very much alive.
While Philly isn’t Stoudemire’s first [...]

January 28th, 2010 · 2 Comments · NBA, Philadelphia 76ers

Reports are running around that the Sixers are finally talking about trading underachieving guard/forward Andre Iguodala. While the Cavs have been mentioned as a possible trade partner, the Rockets and Tracey McGrady ate players as well.
