SIXERS NEWS

Trail Blazers 81 Sixers 79
It Was Over When....
Andre Iguodala's three point prayer went unanswered at the buzzer. Chris Webber had previously tied the game at 79 with a clutch 3 pointer with about 13 seconds to play. However, the Sixers defense once again failed when they needed it the most, as Zach Randolph was able to easily slip by a couple Sixers defenders and bank in what turned out to be the game winning layup.
The Game Ball Goes To....
Zach Randolph with 18 points and 10 rebounds ,despite being in constant foul trouble all night long, and Juan Dixon with 17 points off the bench.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
79, as in only 79 points scored by the Sixers on the night. It's pretty clear that this team truly lacks the firepower to win games without Allen Iverson in the lineup, as A.I once again sat out tonight and is rumored to be on the trading block, indefinitely, at this point.
The Bottom Line Is....
Well, I don't know how things can possibly get any worse for the Sixers right now. With this loss they have now dropped 8 straight games, and are a measily 5-15 overall, their worst record ever at this point in the season. Hopefully, since they can't possibly get any lower for the Sixers, things will starting looking up for them, but at this rate who knows.
