Why do people freak out? You don't blow teams out every night.

[Roy Hobbs]

They will be lucky to win this game. The offense in the second half has been stagnant. If they win we will all be happy, and I guess maybe this is their way of not expending too much energy during the regular season. I don't know. I just don't get how you blow 15-point leads against bad teams while playing at home.

Partly, it's because Doc is trying to rest his starters, and we're missing Rasheed, Daniels, and BBD from our bench.

[celticinorlando]

no you don't...but one would think a 15 point lead at home would be pretty safe against a bad sixers team

[Roy Hobbs]

What a lousy call...

[USG]

Way to no call...

[houlana]

how is that a no call

So much this - this is the NBA, everyone can play.  I'm not happy with a close game but it's not like a blowout should be a gimme for this team.

Let's see some defense here to close out a win against one of the worst teams in the league.  

Great defense by Pierce but he didn't have near the lift to throw down that emphatic dunk.  Not even close.

amen. it is an 82 game season. have some perspective on how the nba works.

also, that should quiet those who say pierce gets the same calls as kobe and lebron

[USG]

Phantom fouls
No calls
Come on refs.

[jdpapa3]

Wow. Where was that call?

[Roy Hobbs]

Iguodala is playing excellently this quarter.  When they actually play up to their potential, this is a very talented Sixers team.

[celticinorlando]

iggy is the luckiest player in the game....

Don't feel good about this one. We are truly cursed on Friday's.
