 D'Antoni Still Coaching To Win
Lineup Update The New York Knicks are in the rare position of both being at the bottom of the standings and not being hurt in any way by winning basketball games. Utah owns their first-round pick this summer, so winning and losing is really meaningless to the Knicks at this point. It must be liberating. Preview and game thread after the jump.
Full storySomething To Root For - Jrue 4 3!I'm unbelievably tired of talking about losing. If I'm going to make it through the next 31 days in one piece, I need some kind of respite from what this season has been reduced to - counting losses. In order to try to maintain my sanity, I'm going to try to come up with something to root for as often as I can. First on the list: Jrue Holiday's three-point stroke. Full storyI Hope You Aren't SuperstitiousIf you are, you better hope the Sixers have enough karmic capital in the bank to make up for tanking the rest of this season, because tonight we saw the first clear signs that they plan on making every effort to lose as many games as possible. Full storyThese Losses Absolutely MatterIn Kate Fagan's column today she talks about the remaining 17 games on the Sixers schedule, and the damage that can be done to this roster if tanking becomes the goal. I can't say that I agree, simply because I believe the damage has already been done. The first 65 games have already torn this team to pieces, and 17 more losses would absolutely do more good than harm. Their next opportunity comes at 6pm, in Miami. Preview and game thread after the jump. Full storyRed, White and You?That's the title of the booklet the Sixers sent out to their current season ticket holders for the renewal push. Who's featured on the cover of the pamphlet? Andre Iguodala? Nope. Jrue Holiday? Nein. Willie Green? Uh uh. It's Dr. J, Moses Malone and Hal Greer. If that isn't bad enough, wait 'til you hear what the inside says. Full storyIt's OfficialThe 2009-2010 Philadelphia 76ers will finish with a worse record than the 2008-2009 squad. I'm glad they got this one out of the way, the suspense was killing me. Rotation chart and brief wrap after the jump. Full storyExcitement At the Wach?The powers that be in the Sixers organization can finally count themselves lucky. It looks like LeBron James will be playing tonight, which will probably mean the final decent crowd packed into the Wachovia Center of the season. Yes, that is how far this once proud franchise has fallen. A visiting superstar's health is the only thing that could salvage a decent gate. Preview and game thread after the jump. Full storyTrading PlacesDerek and I batted this topic around a bit in last night's SixersBeat episode, and since there's really nothing even remotely positive to write about these days, I figured I open the discussion up to you guys as well. Take a look around the Atlantic Division, which teams would you gladly trade places with? Full storySixersBeat Radio Show TonightDerek Bodner and I will host another episode of SixersBeat tonight at 8pm. Info after the jump. Full storySelf-fulfilling ProphecyIt took 64 games, but Eddie Jordan's words are finally ringing true. Full storyKeep the MomentumComing off the high of watching Eddie Jordan deftly bring home a demonstrative defeat at the hands of a vastly inferior team last night, there can be no letdown when Larry Brown brings his Bobcats into the Wach tonight. This game has meaning for the Bobcats, they're really going to want it, so Eddie Jordan, do what you do best. Lose this game. Full storyEddie The TankFast Edward Jordan seems to have gotten the memo. Whether he realizes he's on the fast track to a golden parachute or he's decided he's going to take his frustrations out on the players he blames for his epic failure in what will hopefully be his last NBA coaching job is immaterial. The end result is the same, he's got the Sixers player their worst basketball exactly when they need to be losing games. Full story
