Big Day For Rondo

Less than a day after picking a fight with Chris Paul for no reason (other than the fact that Paul is better than him), Rajon Rondo and the Boston Celtics came to terms on a five-year extension for at least $55M on Monday. The only thing I have to say to that is this: I hope someone took him out and got him drunk last night. The Sixers need every edge they can get when Boston comes to town later tonight. Preview coming this afternoon. Full story

The Field Trip Is On

I'm proud to announce that the first official Depressed Fan field trip is a go. I just purchased the block of 20 seats to Sixers/Clippers game on Saturday, December 19th at 7 p.m.. The seats are in section 115, rows 13 and 14. The face value is $101, but with the group discount (and further subsidization by the blog's ad revenues) it will only be $25 each for you guys. More details after the jump. Full story

Hollinger Noticed

At the very end of his P.E.R. Diem column today, John Hollinger picked apart Eddie Jordan's coaching decisions at the end of the Knicks game. He had some of the same issues I did, with one difference. Full story

Lou Has Played Perfect (Offensive) Basketball

From watching the games, I knew Lou Williams was off to a very good start on the offensive end. None of my fears coming into the season about handing him the reins as a starting PG have come true, not in the slightest. Today, I took at look at individual stats and I think I need to point out exactly how unbelievably good Lou has been. Full story

Game 3 Avanced Stats and Offensive Domination?

Knicks Take Sixers to O.T.

The Sixers scored 141 points, they shot 60.7% from the floor, they out-rebounded the Knicks by 18 and they finished the game on a 17-0 run, yet I'm still having trouble mustering any kind of enthusiasm for this win. Full story

Belly-to-belly

Another first for your 2009-2010 Sixers tonight in New York, their first back-to-back of the season. Oddly enough, the Sixers will actually be the better rested team heading into the game. Full story

Second Half Redemption

After a solid start, the Sixers sputtered in the second quarter, but were definitely born again hard when they came out of the locker room for the second half. I would've loved to have been a fly on the wall in there for Eddie Jordan's halftime speech. The Sixers are back to .500 after cruising though the fourth quarter to a 99-86 win over the rudderless Milwaukee Bucks. Full story

Buck Season at the Wach

The Sixers will continue their hunt for win number one tonight in their home opener. In their sights, the Milwaukee Bucks. Unfortunately, I can't come up with a third hunting reference to fit....wait....Brandon Jennings will be making his first career start at the point, hopefully he'll look like a deer in the headlights! There it is. Preview and game thread after the jump. Full story

Let the Brand Bashing Begin

I have legitimate concerns about Elton Brand at this point. I haven't seen anything which points toward him making a full recovery from his achilles injury. The shoulder isn't an issue. Last season, before the shoulder injury, I saw signs that we was rounding into form, this is why I'm still holding out hope. Through the preseason and the first game of the season, those signs haven't returned. But before we sign off the failure of the Elton Brand contract, can we let him play more than 25 minutes in a meaningful game? Apparently, Tim Povtak of Fanhouse can't, and he won't be the last to jump the gun. Full story
