Wow! At halftime Sixers lead 32-31. Very low scoring game, but still amazing effot by the shorthanded-76ers. Aaron McKie and Kenny Thomas lead the team with 7 pts each. Chauncey with 12 to lead the Pistons. Fair scoring for each teams. Seems like each team is touching the ball. -Sixers lead with 22 reb over the 21 reb Pistons. Keep up the effort and maybe will we take the game without "The Answer" GO SIXERS!
Who says we are shorthanded? Big win for Philly. And we were short handed? Nuh uh. Aaron McKie the main answer for tonights game finished with 21 pts and 5 assists. Eric Snow pitched in with 17 pts and 7 assists. Detroit put up a 29 high scorer, Billups, with Hamilton with 15 pts. Still Sixers prevailed again on a 3 game winning streak, 78-76. Sixers now stand 1st in Atlantic and 2nd in the East with a 12-10 record!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MVPlaya:</div><div class="quote_post"> How is Coach Brown feelin now lol</div> Too many words to say :mrgreen: Seriously, how could a great East team who all that is missing is Chucky Atkins, lose to the team with only 9 active players, and their star player on the IL. That must have been an embarrising night for the team and Larry even on their homecourt. Its just a little payback for last years playoffs, dont worry, we got more for ya Detroit. (Glenn's back, what now!?)
