SIXERS NEWS

The Sixers rang in the New Year on the west coast tonight as they continued their road trip in L.A with a matchup against the Clippers. Incredibly the Sixers actually got off to a quick start in this one and had the lead at halfime 51-49. Unfortunately everything went sour from there for the Sixers. I mean they just lost it almost completely in the 2nd half. Meanwhile, the Clips did what the Sixers have the last couple games and started shooting lights out, outscoring the Sixers 29-14 in the 3rd quarter en route to an easy 104-88 victory. All told the Sixers wound up shooting just 36% from the field and 25% from beyond the arc, which isn't going to beat anyone. They also allowed L.A to shoot 54% from the field and 62% from beyond the arc with 10 threes, the kind of numbers anyone could beat the Sixers with. In short it was a game to forget for the Sixers and what they need to remember are the two games prior to this one. That's the way they need to play the rest of the season. Anymore games like this and it won't be too long until there is nothing left for them to play for. By the way, have a Happy New Year everyone!
