    The lesson, as always, never trust a Buckeye.

    win or lose this series, evan turner can go see herb magee, and work on shooting the 3, so he doesn't do these jump shots a foot inside the 3 point line

    Please no. We don't need to watch him take even more shots that he doesn't really have the range for. He takes ill advised outside shots or drives holding the ball wide open for the easy block. He's gotta slow his game down and gain a whole lot more awareness.

    id rather see him chuck up an open three, then jump stop into a defender to miss a shot he thinks is his comfort zone

    It's not ability, it's psyche and confidence.

    He's not a pure shooter. Ability is certainly involved.

  • This game is proving to me exactly why I despise the NBA. The refs have FAR too much control over the game. I understand the Sixers played like garbage most of the second half but they really had to chance to pick themselves off the floor the way the calls started going. Yes, I understand this is what the NBA is but I'll never be able to enjoy it the way I do other sports...even college bball.

    I hate the Cs, and think they get preferential treatment, but I thought the officiating was fine tonight

    agreed, i thought it was way better then most games, that bald ref is the worst, i think hell make calls when he is bored or wants to make a point that he is in charge, he threw tim duncan out one time for no reason, i cringe when i see him on the court

    I'm not trying to say it decided the game tonight but there is just no way to officiate the kind of athletes that are playing in the NBA now. Everything is a foul if you want to call it and sometimes they do. I would much rather just see the refs let them play more. It would speed up the game and make it more entertaining. My opinion really doesnt matter as, like I said, I can't get into the NBA but I always root for the Sixers.

    Violet Palmer is the worst. Luckily she hasn't done a single playoff game from what I've seen.

    Iggy, Lavoy 2 first rounders for Bynum

    Penn State 7x National Champs, home of the winningest college football coach to ever grace a sideline.

    Not that I wouldn't love to see that happen, but it will take a lot more than that to get Bynum.

    I'd trade the farm (minus Jrue) for Bynum. Pretty interested in Gasol too, for the right price.

    Gasol would get run out of town. Not made for philly.

    About the only thing I will use ESPN's website for...the trade machine!!!

    Here's one I got to work:

    3 Team Deal between 76ers, Magic, & Lakers

    Sixers Get: Bynum and Artest
    Magic Get: Iggy, Evan Turner, Steve Blake & Sixers 1st round and Lakers 2nd round pick
    Lakers Get: Howard & Hedo

    Sixers get a dominant center to free up Elton Brand, A crazed PF who can D up, Rebound and even score - coming off the bench at a reasonable price (6.8M), and they get to keep their most important back court player in Jrue Holiday.

  • I've been put in charge of making a Game 7 drinking game for the beach this weekend. I was told the rules should get us pretty drunk but not puking level. Suggestions would be appreciated.

    I know you said you didn't want to puke, but these are probably going to get you there.

    Drink for:

    Evan turner turnovers.
    Paul Pierces screaming like he got mauled. (But he didnt!!!)
    Lou williams shots that make you go "NO, NO, NO!!... ok, good shot Lou"
    Every time Iggy MAKES a free throw
    Every time the announcers mention a KG rejuvenation.

    That's all i got off the top of my head. God speed

  • Just an FYI:
    Sixers-Celtics Game 7 will be on Saturday, either at 5 ET (TNT) or 8 ET (ABC) -- the latter if the Heat and Pacers don't need a Game 7.
