The Philadelphia 76ers lost their third straight game on Sunday night, falling to the Los Angeles Lakers 111-98. The Sixers’ record now stands at 12-12 on the season.
Even though the Lakers have been a major disappointment this season, the Sixers were still going into this game facing an uphill battle. Jrue Holiday missed his second [...]

Five games into the 2012-13 season, the landscape of basketball in Los Angeles changed dramatically as Mike Brown was relieved of his coaching duties by the Laker organization. That appears to be a very polite way of saying Mike Brown got canned. The Laker PR department seems dead set on saying that this drastic, yet [...]

Los Angeles Lakers: To get the obvious out of the way,the Lakers have improved a great deal this offseason and will certainly be legitimate contenders for the Larry O’Brien trophy, as they continue to prove that the draft is for squares.

After Monday night’s Sixers/Magic game at the Wells Fargo Center, Dwight Howard politely squashed any hope fans had that he would be donning a 76ers jersey at some point in the near future. When asked if he would consider playing in Philadelphia, Howard said, “This is a great team. They’re playing great basketball right now. [...]

Thursday evening Chris Paul was traded to the LA Lakers and it got me thinking about the state of the NBA and why anyone should even support such a league anymore. I consider myself a 4 for 4 guy and I’d love to see the 76ers actually have a chance at being a contender [...]
