Hinrich is a tough defender, he can shoot the ball, he is a good ballhandler, he has good vision, and he plays hard every night. Iverson is the biggest warrior I have ever seen in my life, and his skills are god-like. This should be a good matchup between these two guards.</span> CelticBalla's Extra Thoughts/NotesI love watching the Bulls, and I love almost every player on the team. Philly is a Celtics division rival, and while I hope they lose, I LOVE watching Allen Iverson. Iggy is one of my favorite young wings as well. CelticBalla's PredictionChicago has been playing good basketball, and I don't see that changing tonight. They are just head and shoulders way better than the Sixers. Sure Allen Iverson is tough to handle and they have a couple nice young players, but I don't see Philly's offense taking out Chicago's great all around play. I say the Bulls win by double digits.

    Yes! The Sixers are awesome! Greg Oden/Kevin Durant, welcome to Philly!It's pretty sad that I'm already looking forward to the draft.

Here's to a 5-77 season! :drunk:</div>Well we played horribly but it wasn't exactly supirsing. Dalembert was horrible, Iggy was practically non existant in that game untilt he end it seemed, Iverosn is now having back spasms, and are defense was absolutely horrid. Well I am definetly looking to the draft and bringing in a future star from this stacked draft. Knowing BK though he'll probably screw thta up also and draft someone who will either flop or we don't need. As long as the Sixers can get Durant, Oden, or Brandan Wright I'll be happy.

    No... I've seen Durant play in person... dude is a beast. If we don't get either him or Oden, I will seriously be pissed at Durant for leaving Texas early.Anyways... Webber is amazing. I mean, the thought of having $9 million in cap space once he is gone is the only thing that makes me want to keep him on this team.

I found it hilarious how all the ESPN analysts were saying "This should be a close one" or "This is going to be a great game" before the game started. They don't know anything...

That is always the upside with having a bad record....Oden would fit in perfectly with the Sixers system. They really need a defender right now....
