The Lions' Pride

1,2,3,4,5, SIXERS!!!!!!!

We all know why the Sixers won the series rmj, but you just have to understand being a Sixers fan to truly understand the excitement. Being a franchise that refuses to tank seasons to get high draft picks has made winning very difficult. Sixers have been the definition of mediocrity or worse since the LB, AI era. It's nice to see a team that worked so hard this season to get a reward like this. It's certainly a shame for the Bulls as they had a great team and Rose is a great player.

whats up sixers!!!!!!!

Game was insane. Loudest Sixers game I've been at in forever. Sunday's crowd was pathetic, today's was great all game.

Clap your hands, everybody, for Philadelphia, Seventy Sixers!

Headed home from the game right now. Firsts game I went to this whole year...amazing. So pumped.

I'm glad we got the Celtics. We did well against the Hawka, but I think a Celtics/76ers series will be good. Like Gem said...heart over head.

...

Finally, a 6ers fan with perspective lol. All I'm saying is ill see you next year. No disrespect but If rose plays it's a sweep. And he is one for revenge so if you guys make the playoffs, and we play each other, I'm just saying look out... Kid is focused. I'm sure he'll be back and better than ever. But enjoy this moment u guys. I remember what it was like post MJ and Scottie... MANY dark years. I understand what it's like to be a 6ers fan... You don't think I remember Marcus Fizer and Eddy Curry? lol Our histories are very similar as a matter of fact like that... Long stretches of mediocrity. But the last couple of years Rose grew up before my eyes. Now your team is all grown up too... You guys have a bright future. And Collins is a great coach. But enjoy this. Seriously. I'm glad you guys are good again and I look forward to this rivalry. Beating my team made it just that lol I am taking notice

Perspective? Seriously? We just won and are happy and you want us to bow down to the greatness of Derrick Rose?

Sorry if I don't kiss the Bulls' feet and say "we'll get our asses kicked next year."

I was jk about the perspective comment and the rest of my post is praising a young, exciting team... Yes you beat us without one of the best players in the league... Barely in 6... How we won 2 games, I have no idea. If D Rose is there, its an entire different series. It's the playoffs. No one cares about you beating us by 18 in a game that no one remembers. You would never beat us in a series with Rose (let alone where Noah is a game time decision). Ever. I doubt you'd even win a game. He is a top 3 player in the league and the most talented player on the floor- hands down, by a landslide. You won by 1 point... without Rose's 30 a game on the floor. Seriously, he IS the Bulls... He makes a Peyton Manning/Troy Polamalu type impact for the Bulls.

BUT, like I said. CONGRATS. And I seriously mean that. I have a crap load of friends that are Philly fans. So you better believe my phone blew up as soon as the final score was in. I am happy for you guys, I really am. Im being sincere when I say that. You have a great future and Doug Colins (former Bulls coach) is a great one. And you are the better team without the former MVP out there. You are, and you deserved to win. No excuses. You were the better team.

BUT lol be prepared for next year. I won't forget the reaction of some of you Philly fans. Incredible. My friends wont leave me alone, my phone has 20 texts that I refuse to answer, and my facebook wall is blown to shreds. And as probably the lone Bulls fan on the board, I have to do this for my City. Sorry guys. Gotta stick up for my team. As do you. Respect. I will be rooting for you guys against the Celtics too... I hate them more than you guys know, or can probably understand (maybe the Pistons are close for who I hate more- historically- but I hate the Heat more than anything right now)... I may hate them more than OSU, just as a PSU point of reference. Seriously, good luck you guys. I hope you make Garnett cry.

Awful cocky for a team that just lost to the 76ers...

Who would be? I put him in the top. He won the MVP last year and it was well deserved. To me he is the best (but he is also on my team). I could listen to arguments for Lebron and Durant... And thats pretty much it.
