Sixers Welcome Streaking Hornets

Game to pay attention to: Hornets vs. 76ersI have to respectfully disagree.? The Sixers haven't been fun to watch since the All Star break.? Maybe the Hornets are exciting- that Chris Paul is one hell of a player- but this club is about as inconsistent as they come.? If it weren't for the ...

Sixers vs. Hornets: Chris Paul In Person

Help me out, when was the last time you watched the Sixers play and thought to yourself ?they played great tonight??. Without looking at the previous schedule of games I find myself drawing a blank. Sad. Well it?s likely going to take a memorable performance from our Sixers tonight if they are ...

Let's Put Some D-League In This Dunk Contest

Look, it's not that I didn't think the short guy in the dunk contest wasn't cool. When they did it. And it's not that I didn't dig the awkward white dude. When they did it. And hey, I think Russell Westbrook and Rudy Fernandez could put on a show. But I've got a better idea for the fourth ...

Tonights Sched: Mondays Kinda Suck..

So, tonight there are maybe 2 good games out of the 5.Hornets at 76ersCP3 and bunch have been playing a little better recently.

Seatowning 2/28/09, Beltre Denied

Random Musings: I hope the World Baseball Classic doesn't cause any clubhouse chemistry problems within the Mariners, hopefully everyone will be able to come together before opening day and thrive in a positive clubhouse environment. I'm over missing the Sonics. Besides, Nate Robinson is lighting it up and the Huskies are way awesome. Although, I look at my 2009 Sonics Calendar...
