SIXERS NEWS

In a game that meant nothing to both teams, as the Sixers had already been eliminated from the playoffs, and the Pistons had already clinched the top seed in the Eastern conference, young players getting a look in preparation for next season ruled the night. Detroit native, Willie Green, playing in front of his hometown, poured in a game high 26 points and dished off 7 assists, last year's 2nd round pick Bobby Jones scored a career high 13 points, and recent NBDL call up Louis Amundson scored 8 points ,including his first NBA field goal, and pulled down a game high 11 rebounds. The Pistons were not without a couple young stars of their own, as Philly's own Ronald "Flip" murray finished with 7 points and 6 assists, and Jason Maxiell poured in 10 points off the bench. Still, in the end the determined Sixers pulled out the win by the final score of 102-91. I would talk about this game a little bit more now, but like I said it didn't mean anything, so I don't have anything else to say.
