Yeah prior to the game Frank said he hoped to limit the starters minutes to under 30, so that says it all right there. Gotta give credit to Philly for playing hard and fighting for their playoff lives..
I knew AI wouldn't let his team lose. 40 points 10 assists tonight. also, he called out Iguodala who recorded a double-double, 10 points/14 boards.
I'm gonna say the Bulls have a good chance. Nocioni's been on fire lately, i think he's had 8 straight double-doubles
I watched the Nets play both the Bulls and the Sixers, and in both games they really looked like they didn't care one way or the other. I don't think that is good for them, because even though they might not have anything to fight for in terms of positioning, they should still go out there and try to win as many games and prepare for the playoffs.The Sixers surprised me tonight. When I saw Webber was back, I thought to myself "Oh no, we'll lose," but they played very very well, and AI hit his season averages against the Nets this year (40 points and 10 assists).The big challenge comes now for the Sixers. Three out of their last four games are on the road (@ Miami, @ Orlando, and @ Charlotte), and their remaining home game is against New Jersey.
It's only division records second when both are in the divisions, like Spurs/Mavs, but other cases the next tiebreaker is conference then division.
Bulls just finished up an impressive 24 point win over the Heat to clinch a playoff spot.Hate to say I told you so :winkglasses:

Orlando's eliminated. For the Sixers to make the playoffs the Wizards must loose their last 3 games, and the Sixers must win their last 2.
Yeah the Sixers are eliminated, everyone clinched in the East, its just a matter of the seeding now, something that could change alot over the next week or so..
