SIXERS NEWS

The streaking Sixers welcomed the Chicago Bulls to the Wachovia center tonight and showed them what a real team looks like. Offensively, five Sixers scored in double figures(Andre Iguodala, Samuel Dalembert, Thaddeus Young, Louis Williams, Rodney Carney) with sweet Lou's 23 leading the way off the bench. Defensively, it was a team effort and a pretty good one, as the Sixers out rebounded Chicago 46-41, and pilfered them for 12 steals. In the first quarter of play the Sixers quickly jumped out to a big 15 point lead and never looked back. In the 2nd quarter of play, the Sixers extended their lead to 16, with the score 65-49. In the 3rd quarter of play the Bulls made some middling inroads but still trailed by 14, with the score 91-77 heading into the 4th. Finally in the 4th quarter of play, the Sixers ran away with it to win by 22, with final score 121-99. So the Sixers improve to 37-35 overall, but remain 6th in the Eastern conference and 2nd in the Atlantic division.
