This match-up lost a ton of luster when A.I. bounced. Now it's just two below average teams battling and trying to figure out a winning mix.
The storyline most of us will be watching is how does Elton Brand back-up his best performance as a Sixer.
I know he doesn't want or...

Unless you don't have a job, and have ESPNU, you probably didn't watch the Nova game today. Dannie and I "watched" on separate GameCasts at work, and saw a very strange game unfold. It ended with Villanova winning 69-68, but here's how they got there.... Corey...

Would you look at that. Elton Brand can still throw down! And did so I believe 3 or 4 times last night.
Brand's line was promising even against a terrible Bobcats team.

We can all think of a number of words to describe the Sixers start to the 2010 season.

I just got back in town and the misery that is the Philadelphia 76ers continues.
Marreese Speights one of the only bright spots so far this season has a partial MCL tear which will keep him out 6-8 weeks. And that doesn't account for how he will be able to perform immediately...

The Sixers once again will face a team that is not at full strength. The Jazz will be without Deron Williams who was excused from tonight's game for personal reasons.
That's a good and bad thing in my mind.

I’ve been harping for the last couple weeks about what an asset Chone Figgins (and his .393 OBP) would be at the top of our line-up. It also happens that he plays a tremendous 3rd base, a position we coincidently have open. I felt he was the perfect fit, but didn’t really...
