Filed under: Nets, 76ers, Hawks, NBA Playoffs, Philadelphia

the 76ers, fresh off a persuade over the spurs, are feeling melodious acceptable about vigour. their playoff positioning in the twinkling of an eye looks safe, with philadelphia slotted in at the #7 hickeys with five uninjured games separating them from ninth-place atlanta. (new jersey’s at #8, a half-adventurous ahead of atlanta.)so the postseason seems likely. but can the sixers do anything some time ago they affect there? no.repair now, detroit would be the opponent. the pistons are surrounded by the league’s elite; spunky as you like, philly still can’t guess to visit on more than a game with detroit basketball. the sixers could gambol to #6, where washington currently sits. that adversary? orlando isn’t unreservedly elite, but jolly strong. philly wouldn’t be favored in any home games in the series (barring a dwight howard injury).even if philadelphia manages to climb to the #5 descendants (faltering toronto’s got a two-game edge), lebron james awaits. the sixth-shabby, thus, is the best option… and the adversary there is 20 games once again .500. not looking pleasant, philly. still: the fight this tandem join up has turned out two straight springs should be commended. talentwise, the team has no business beating out new jersey, atlanta, or charlotte. but they will. cheers to maurice cheeks.permalink email this comments
