The Sixers welcomed King James and the rest of his Cleveland Cavalier cohorts to the Wachovia center tonight. Cleveland came into tonight with the 2nd best record in the Eastern conference so there was little hope the Sixers would be able to beat them, even with Elton Brand back in the lineup. It was actually a close game for a while but eventually Cleveland's fire power proved to be too much as Lebron dropped 29, and Mo Williams chipped in with 27. Meanwhile, the Andres, Miller and Iguodala with 22 and 27 points respectively kept it close for the Sixers. The Sixers actually had the early 3 point lead after a quarter of play with the score 28-25. By the half Cleveland had pulled ahead by 2 with the score 48-46. In the 3rd quarter the Cavs took control of the game, and actually led by 20 at one point before settling for a 19 point lead, with the score 84-65 heading into the 4th quarter. Finally in the 4th quarter, the Sixers mounted a serious comeback but it was too little too late, and eventually Cleveland hung on to win by 8, with the final score 101-93. So the Sixers drop to 9-13 overall and it doesn't look like anything can save them at this point.

It seems that the Sixers just keep falling deeper in the hole that they started, and now they're getting burried by good teams
