The Bottom Line Is....
Well, all good things must come to an end, or as Isaac Newton would say what goes up must come down, and sadly after a 7 game winning streak the Sixers came back down to earth tonight in a big way. Hopefully, they still have a few winning streaks left in them, or its good bye playoffs, and hello draft lottery.

Well, you win some, you lose some, or if you're the Flyers you win some and lose a lot.

It Was Over When....
Kyle Korver sunk to clutch free throws with .8 seconds to play in the 4th quarter. The Pacer's Danny Granger had just hit his 2nd 3 pointer in a row to cut the lead to 98-96, but Korver's free throws put it away for good at 100-96.
The Game Ball Goes To....
Andre Miller with 16 points and 8 assists, Andre Iguodala with a game high 25 points and 5 rebounds, Samuel Dalembert with 12 points and 8 rebounds and Kyle Korver with 14 points off the bench.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
28, as in 28 free throws for the Sixers on the night to just 10 for the Pacers on the night. Usually if you get to the line that many more times than your opponent you win.
The Bottom Line Is....
It wasn't pretty but the Sixers got their 7th straight win and are now just 4 games behind the Orlando Magic for the last playoff spot in the Eastern conference.
FLYERS NEWS
Flyers 4 Bruins 1

The Game Puck Goes To....
Scottie Upshall with a goal and an assist, Dmitry Afanasenkov with a goal and an assist, and goalie Martin Biron who saved 26 of the 27 shots he faced.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
3, as in 3 goals scored by the Flyers in the 3rd period to 0 scored by the Bruins. Obviously if you want to win an NHL game you have to be able to score late in the game.
The Bottom Line Is....
The Flyers may not be headed to the playoffs this season, but thus far they have done a pretty good job spoiling the playoff hopes of other teams.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils continued their spring training schedule today with 2 games. First they lost to the Astros 3-2, despite 4 strong innings out of Jon Lieber.

The Bottom Line Is....
The Sixers have now won 6 in a row, all on a homestand which ended tonight, and they are now just 4.5 games behind the Orlando Magic for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Believe It!
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils lost a tough one to the Red Sox today 11-10. Other than that and the fact that once again no one got injured there is not much to talk about.

The Stat Of The Game Is....
37, as in 37 shots on goal by the Panthers on the night to just 27 for the Flyers on the night. Sometimes simply outshooting the other team is enough to get the win, especially when one of your shots just accidentally slides in.
The Bottom Line Is....
Apparently not even Marty Biron is immune to the unlucky bug that has bitten the Flyers time and time again this season.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils continued their spring training schedule today with a 7-6 loss to the Indians. Other than that the only thing to talk about is that no one got injured once again. On a more somber note former longtime Phillies 3rd base coach and current special assistant to the GM John Vukovich died earlier today of complications from a brain tumor. We'll miss ya VUC!

The Stat Of The Game Is....
49, as in 49 rebounds for the Sixers on the night, to just 43 for the Supersonics on the night. As they have throughout this winning streak, the Sixers used a significant rebounding advantage to get the win.
The Bottom Line Is....
This makes 5 consecutive wins now for the Sixers and don't look now but all of the sudden the Sixers are within 5.5 games of the 8th and final playoff spot in the Eastern conference, currently held by the Orlando Magic. Yes, the Eastern conference is that bad.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils won another 10 inning game this time 6-3 over the Blue Jays, thanks to homers by Pat Burrell, Wes Helms, and non roster invitee Brennan King. Also there remains no injuries to report

Mike Richards, Simon Gagne, Scottie Upshall, and Sami Kapanen, all with a goal and an assist each.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
1, as in 1 goal scored by the Flyers during the overtime period, to 0 scored by the Devils. Throughout the season, this stat has notoriously not gone in the Flyers favor, but tonight for once it did go in their favor and so they won.
The Bottom Line Is....
Well, the Flyers are now 2-1 with Biron and 16-47 without him. Okay, so he's only been with the team for 3 games now, but clearly the Flyers have been playing better since Biron came aboard.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils continued their spring training schedule today, with a 11-10, 10 inning win over the Pirates. Jamie Moyer, pitched 3 scoreless innings to open the game, Ryan Howard had another RBI double, and once again no one got injured.

Sixers 99 Nets 86
It Was Over When....
The 2nd quarter started. At one point during the 1st quarter the Sixers trailed 24-7, and entering the 2nd quarter they trailed 32-18, but by the time the 2nd quarter ended the Sixers had outscored the Nets 31-13 to take a 6 point, 49-43, halftime lead, which they would never relinquish.
The Game Ball Goes To....
Andre Miller with 11 points, 12 assists, and 8 rebounds, Andre Iguodala with a game high 21 points and 6 rebounds, Willie Green with 20 points and 7 rebounds, Joe Smith with 11 points and 10 rebounds off the bench, and Kyle Korver with 20 points off the bench.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
9, as in only 9 points scored on the night for Nets star Vince Carter. Basically, as Carter goes so goes the Nets. Thus as Carter struggled tonight against the Sixers tough defense, so did the Nets.
The Bottom Line Is....
This makes 4, count 'em 4 wins in a row for the Sixers, which not surprisingly is their longest winning streak of the season thus far. So although, it's still pretty unlikely that they will be able to make the playoffs, I think it's safe to say that they are now a force to be reckoned with.

Sidney Crosby beat Martin Biron with the Penguins 2nd goal of the shootout, ending the game.
The Game Puck Goes To....
Erik Christensen with 3 goals, Gary Roberts with a goal and 2 assists, and Sergei Gonchar with 2 assists.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
2, as in 2 goals scored by the Penguins during shootout to 0 scored by the Flyers in the shootout. It's like I have been saying all season, if it's overtime it must be the other guys.
The Bottom Line Is....
Coming into today's game the Flyers had yet to get a win against the Penguins, and there was no reason to think that today would finally be the day they would beat them and so they didn't.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils continued thier spring training schedule today with a 10-5 loss to the Yankees. Once again no one was injured. Also Cole Hamels looked good pitching 3 scoreless innings to open the game.

Sixers 117 Grizzlies 112

The Game Ball Goes To....
Andre Miller with 11 points and 12 assists, Andre Iguodala with 27 points, 6 assists, and 9 rebounds, Samuel Dalembert with 10 points and 7 rebounds, Joe Smith with 18 points and 12 rebounds off the bench, and Kyle Korver with 27 points off the bench.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
Well, in a game with 24 lead changes and 18 ties its hard to find just one stat that defined the entire game, but here goes. 29, as in 29 fast break points for the Sixers on the night, to just 8 for the Grizzlies on the night, 54, as in 54 points in the paint for the Sixers on the night to just 46 for the Grizzlies, and finally 55.6, as in a shooting percentage of 55.6 on the night for the Sixers to a shooting percentage of 47.3 for the Grizzlies on the night. In fact, if not for the Sixers 21 turnovers on the night, this game could have been a blowout.
The Bottom Line Is....
After defeating the best team in the western conference in their last game, it's only fitting that the Sixers would win this game, for their 3rd win in a row, against the worst team in the western conference.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils defeated the Cleveland Indians 6-4 earlier today, for their first spring training win. Once again no one got injured, which is good, but there were also some key performances by some key players. Ryan Howard hit his first homer of the spring, Shane Victorino had 2 hits, and Antonio Alfonseca got his first save as a Phil, pitching a scoreless 9th inning.
EAGLES NEWS
Of the Eagles 11 free agents going into this offseason, two have now been re-singed by the Birds. Safety Quinten Mikell was re-upped to a 4 year deal back on Tuesday and Defensive Juqua Thomas was re-upped to a 5 year deal earlier today. Thus, the Eagles continued their current trend of giving promising young players long term deals.

Mike Richards with a goal and an assist, Sami Kapanen with 2 assists, and new goalie Martin Biron who after giving up two early goals, made 34 stops the rest of the way, allowing only one more goal, as the Flyer rallied from behind to win.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
55, as in 55 shots on goal for the Flyers on the night to just 34 shots on goal for the Bruins on the night. So far this season outshooting the other team had not really payed off for the Flyers but tonight it did in the form of 4 goals and a win.
The Bottom Line Is....
Well, it's just like I said Biron means more wins for the Flyers.
PHILLIES NEWS
The Phils played their first spring training game today against the Tigers and although they lost 9-7, no one got injured, which with this team is really the most important thing isn't it. Anyway, if you are looking for something to focus on from this game, then it's non roster invitee Greg Dobbs who led the Phils on the day with 3 hits including a homer. Who knows, maybe he's this years Chris Coste.
SIXERS NEWS
Amidst the glory of last night's win the Sixers did have one loss. Rookie forward Rodney Carney tore the rotator cuff and labrum in his right shoulder. Fortunately, Carney is currently listed as day to day since it is believed that his injury will not require surgery.

Sixers 99 Suns 94
It Was Over When....
Andre Iguodala hit a three pointer with 2 minutes to play in the 4th quarter. From that time on the Suns would not close to within any closer than 3 points of the Sixers.
The Game Ball Goes To....
Andre Miller with 12 points and 6 assists, Willie Green with 20 points and 6 rebounds, Andre Iguodala with 24 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists, and Kyle Korver with 16 points off the bench.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
50, as in 50 rebounds for the Sixers on the night, to just 37 for the Suns. Just like last night the Sixers had a massive rebounding advantage and so they won thier second game in a row.
The Bottom Line Is....
Going into tonight's game the Suns had a chance to make history by becoming the first team in NBA to win all of their interconference games without a loss and surely they were going to get the job done against the Sixers, but that as they say, is why they play the games. Tonight, was without the a doubt the Sixers finest hour of the season. Everything that could have gone their way went their way. They held the high-scoring suns to just 94 points and were a perfect 18 for 18 from the free throw line. Basically, they played as well as they could have, beat a really good team in the Suns, and should feel very good about themselves right now.

Islanders 6 Flyers 5 Final in Overtime
It Was Over When....
The Islander's Trent Hunter scored a power play goal with just over 4 minutes to play in the overtime period. The Flyers had rallied to tie the game at 5 at the end of regulation, but Hunter's goal thwarted the Flyers comeback bid.
The Game Puck Goes To....
Jason Blake with 3 goals and an assist, Trent Hunter with 2 goals, Randy Robitaille with 3 assists, and Mike Sillinger with 2 assists.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
1, as in 1 power play goal scored by the Islanders on the night, to 0 scored by the Flyers on the night, despite having 3 opportunities to do so. Basically, the two teams were pretty even from beginning to end ,with the only difference being that 1 power play goal scored by Hunter in overtime.
The Bottom Line Is....
Well, they lost this one, but you know what they might just start winning some pretty soon, since they acquired goalie Martin Biron from the Sabres in exchange for a draft pick. With Biron the Flyers now have 3 goalies with which to rely on, although it's likely that Robert Esche will be traded away at some point. Still, with Biron in the mix the Flyers might be able to turn things around a bit, so who knows maybe they won't be so bad next year.

55, as in 55 rebounds on the night for the Sixers, to just 40 rebounds for the Kings on the night. Anytime you get a rebounding edge that great you have a good chance to win, and so the Sixers did tonight.
The Bottom Line Is....
After 2 straight losses this is a win the Sixers needed to have and it's not really that surprising since the Kings had been struggling just as much if not more than the Sixers had been lately. Still, a win is a win, so way to go guys and keep up the good work.

The Bucks rode their high percentage to 12, count 'em 12 threes, which is just about enough 3 pointers to pull off a win against any team, especially the Sixers who can't really shoot 3 pointers themselves.
The Bottom Line Is....
Well, this is 2 losses in a row now for the Sixers and unfortunately at this point there is nothing but more frustration on the horizon, but hey that's what you get with a young team like this.

The Bottom Line Is....
Well, after opening the post all star game portion of their season with a win over the Knicks, the Sixers followed by losing to the Bobcats, who if anything are worse than the Knicks. Thus, you can see why the Sixers aren't quite ready for primetime just yet, they just aren't consistent enough.
