Lets Try To Be POSITIVE there has been so much negativity and disappointment this season for the sixers. with the acquisition of chris webber last season. many expected the sixers to be one of the top teams in the east. well, that didnt happen. but after the playoff lost, most looked to the bright side. AI and C-Webb will have a whole off season and training together to get chemistry. most thought next season we will definetly win the atlantic and be a top seed. unfortunatly, it hasnt happened. we are the 8th seed and barely clinging onto a playoff spot. our record is currently worse than our record last season. but in admist of all disappointment, we must look to the bright side and realize that regardless of what season the team has had, they have been with us since day one. the city of philadelphia has only one basketball team, and that is the sixers. the philadelphia 76ers as a team has brought our city together as one (or at least NBA fans) we have to realize although we arent the best team in the league, we have a team for this city. and that alone, makes me happy to know that the city of philadelphia will back up the sixers no matter what happens. as long as they are still in philly.

The truth is, the city of Philadelphia doesn't back up the team no matter what. In fact, what pisses me off most during games is when fans starts leaving the games in order to beat traffic when they're losing. And the one game that I went to, almost everyone were doing that (we lost by seven to Pistons). And personally, I think the Sixers have lost quite a bit of fan base after staying in mediocrity all these years. The city is more focused on the Eagles and has always been.
