SIXERS NEWS

Suns106 Sixers 94

It Was Over When....

The Sixers failed to get the lead at halftime. They led at one point with about 3:00 minutes left in the 2nd period, but the Suns charged back ahead before the half and never trailed again.

The Game ball Goes to....

Leandro Barbosa with 26 points and 10 rebounds, and Amare Stoudamire with 23 points and 10 rebounds. Simply put, the sixers just did not have an answer for the these 2.

The Stat Of The Gane Is....

14.3 as in just a 14.3 3pt shooting percentage for the Sixers on the night and 66.7 as in just a 66.7 free-throw shooting percentage. Winning is all about good shooting and when you shoot that poorly against an explosive offensive like the Suns' you usually end up on the short end of the stick.

The Bottom Line Is

Well, it appears that the victory over the Sonics was just a blip on the screen the for the Sixers, who once again fell back to a .500 record at 4-4. You have to hope though, that the Sixers can at least get another hot streak started at some point before the end of the season. Otherwise, this team won't be going anywhere.
