Notes From The Sixers’ 93-82 Loss to Chicago

sixersbllsThe Philadelphia 76ers lost their fifth straight game on Thursday night, falling to the Bulls 93-82 in Chicago. The loss drops their record to 22-34 on the season.

  • Although tonight’s game was fairly close throughout the game, I wouldn’t say that the Sixers played all that well. Sure, they were much better tonight then they were against Orlando on Tuesday, but they had nowhere to go but up after that horrid performance. Tonight’s game was close because Chicago wasn’t on top of their game in certain aspects.
  • With the exception of Joakim Noah, few players on the Bulls played particularly well. Look at the shooting numbers for some of these guys. Luol Deng shot 5-14. Carlos Boozer went 5-13. Marco Belinelli hit just 3-10. Kirk Hinrich 5-15. Nate Robinson 3-11. That’s a ton of missed shots. The Bulls aren’t a strong offensive team without Derrick Rose, and they have plenty of nights like this that they struggle to generate offense.
  • Noah was absolutely sensational for the Bulls. He put together a 23-point, 21-rebound performance, and also blocked a career-high 11 shots. It was the second time in a week that the Sixers have allowed an opposing star to put up a triple-double, and the second time in the last two games that the opposing center pulled down at least 19 rebounds.
  • Jrue Holiday led the Sixers with 22 points, rediscovering his offensive game after a rough night against the Magic. However, he was only able to put up three assists.
  • Spencer Hawes had nowhere to go but up after pulling down just one rebound on Wednesday. Tonight he put up good numbers (20 points, 15 rebounds), but it was a pretty unimpressive double-double. While his numbers look good, Hawes was pushed around and abused by Noah throughout the game. His rebounding numbers were boosted by Chicago’s exceptionally poor shooting, and he needed 18 shot attempts to put up his 20 points.
  • For the second straight game, Nick Young hit just one shot in six attempts. Young has just two made field goals in his last 16 shots.

Denny — Spencer had 15 rebounds not 12
yes he was outplayed by Bull C Noah but at least his hands were dirty and in the fight
Spence had 6- 6 FT attempts 20pts(7-18)FG, 15 rebounds
Hawes, Noah, and Boozer all had good stats

Conversely
Thad Young was massively over matched inside
(4-13) 1-4FT 10 rebounds 9pts.
Carlos Boozer
(5-12) 11-12FT 12 rebounds 21pts
Thad Young was giving free dunks at the basket all night afraid to step in front of penetraters off the pick and roll

Free Throws —
Holliday & Turner’s refusal to dunk the ball after a PF/ C high pick screen left Noah free to swat shots all night long never to worry about foul trouble. Every game Turner cries to the refs for lower body contact fouls and still won’t accept after 3 years he is not getting that call. He needs to stop his two hand set shoot layup and start to one hand dunking to get foul calls.

Boozer(11-12) FT, Noah (7-9)FT, Hinrich (4-5) FT Deng (2-3) FT
T.Young (1-4 )FT Hawes(6-6)FT, Holiday(1-3)FT Turner(0-1)FT
with the exception of Hawes, the Sixers starters have no scratches or bumps or bruises or black eyes because they AVOID CONTACT

That’s waht happens when your Team is made up with Jump-Shooters..
This has to be one of the “Softest” Teams in the NBA..Just like the Eagles
Philly is now known as the “Softy Town” for their Sport Teams,Pretzels, MR Softee Ice Cream Trucks, and a large Population of Soft Bellies around the Tri-State/Philly area..

No more talk about that BUM BUST Evan Turner Mr. Basens?

He’s a bum! Laughing when his teammates get dunked on! Joking around with Carmelo after he swung at his teammate!

He’s a clown and doesn’t have the heart to play for a city like Philadelphia. Denounce him NOW Denny, NOW!!

Andrew Bynum (knee) admitted that he does not want to play through pain.
“I’m 25. It’s my life,” Bynum said. Considering the lack of cartilage in his right knee and his degenerative condition, he may not have a choice. But fighting through pain for an atrocious Sixers team is not on Bynum’s agenda — even if it could affect his impending unrestricted free agency. “If I am healthy, then I’ll get a deal,” Bynum said. “But I have to be able to play. I need to get to the point with my body that I’m able to play. However long that takes.” At this point, it would be a shock if Bynum plays in a single game this season.

I was like you think you’re tough insulting people and attacking people on gcobb lets see how tough you are homo. And he started talking tough and I thought we were gonna go to round one then all of a sudden this queer grabbed the sides of his snap up the sides windbreaker pants and pulled them off exposing himself. I never ran so fast in my life.

Even drank a coffee & read the Daily news. Nobody showed, no confrontations, even saw a few of my friends, on their beat, & told them what was going on, & we had a huge laugh! I then proceeded to Cava, up the street, after I realised, but wasn’t surprised, that the Tranny wasn’t showing up, picked up, the customed made counter tops I ordered, granite tiles, cement, etc, etc, even drove back through, & nothing! I guess, SHE didn’t want to mess up her Lee press on nails & makeup! mhenski, you might as well as well go get that sex reassignment surgery now, because you already proved that you have NO BALLS, are a BITCH, a FRAUD OF A MAN, & HAVE LADY PARTS! So don’t come at me, with your baby games, unless you want to be aREAL MAN, & NOT AN INTERNET NINJA! You ain’t $#!T SON, & ARE BLESSED, you DIDN’T SHOW! Your Guardian Angel watched over you today! Count your blessings, because karma is a bitch, next time you won’t be so lucky! Thank you for the laugh though, it’s the best I’ve had in awhile! I’m done with you Nancy Henski, go away, or back to Woodies, where you frequent, with the rest of the Rainbow brigade. This is a sports site for MEN, not LIL girlish Tootsies!

OH & BTW, you act like realise, isn’t, nor ever was a word, you stupid M*F^#@ER.
Realise vs. realize
Realise and realize are different spellings of the same word, and both are used to varying degrees throughout the English and American-speaking world. Realize is the preferred spelling in American and Canadian English, and realise is preferred outside North America. The spelling distinction extends to all derivatives of the verb, including realised/realized, realising/realizing, and realisation/realization.

Although realize is now regarded by many in the U.K. and Australasia as the American spelling, it is not an Americanism. In fact, the -ize spelling variant is older than -ise—realize predates the United States and Canada by nearly two centuries—and has been the preferred spelling throughout most of the word’s history in English. If we can believe the ngram below, which graphs the use of realize and realise in British books and journals published between 1800 and 2000, realise had a brief ascendancy in British English from the late 19th century through the early 20th, but realize was preferred before around 1875 and is again preferred today—perhaps because of the influence of dictionaries like Oxford, Cambridge, and Collins, which encourage -ize over -ise.
So I’m far from stupid, you imbecile! It’s called a typo, not intelligence, you @$$MINER! Go nitpick, on someone who deserves it, like your reflection in the mirror! AGAIN, go away!
