3-9-06 NBA PICKS:

DEN/PHI OVER 211---- 2 Units


Philly shot 37% last night and still scored 100

AI was 10-31, he got his 30, but I'm sure he wasn't pleased with that.
John Salmons kills me. I don't like this guy at all. he was 1-12 last night. 12 shots?? why? They put him in isolation to close out quarters at times too if AI is on the bench. I just don't get it. 2-21 last 3 games, realize thats not even 10%!!!!! stop shooting!!

Iguodola needs to get 11-14 FGA every night as well. When he does, man, he could average 17, 18 PPG. He is explosive going to the hole. Seems like a lot better than option than Salmons.


Scoring isn't really there problem I guess though. They will get plenty of shots. Just don't waist possessions, cripes.

Philly has given up 100 or more in 11 of the last 12 games.

Carmelo shouldn't have a problem scoring. Patterson, Camby, Andre Miller.... just should't be a problem scoring against a soft Philly D.
Both teams will shoot over 45% IMO, plenty of shots going up. I'll take my chances.

Good Luck Today!

Gl Hawk-I agree that Salmons is an atrocity-he shouldn't be playing. Like the over too:thumbs:

Guys are missing open shots like crazy. Korver, figure it out.

Stop giving the ball to the other team.

Need a big 2nd Half. Both teams are very capable of scoring 30+ in a quarter, going to need a big quarter from each team.

0-1 on the night, -2.2 Units

Cheeks is lucky AI approves of him or else he should be canned.

I've watched Philly as a closet 76ers fan for awhile now. There just seems to be no rhyme or reason.

Last night Salmons hoarks up 12 shots for what reason I have no idea. If any of 1 of those 12 shots was a designed play for him, there is serious question marks there.

Tonight, Kyle Korver thought he was Jordan, posting up and shooting fade-aways?? What?? When has he ever done this? Maybe once a game on a complete mismatch. 1-12 from 3 PT land doesn't make sense...but, if he is open, whatever, shoot it. I highly doubt he had 12 uncontested 3's tonight tho. They showed Cheeks talking with Korver on the bench, I seriously hope Cheeks did not encourage the fade aways and trying to play on the post. Waisted possessions.

Andre Iguodola.... 3 shots. what?? why?? Have any of you guys watched this kid play?? he can freakin play. Salmons, Hunter, Barnes and Dalembert had more FGA. That is absolutely inexcusable. IMO, that is Cheeks fault. He is not doing a good job involving Iguodola. Get this guy to go to the hole.... again, he should be getting 12-14 FGA per night.

Anyway, this isn't about losing the bet, who cares. I'm just tired of watching this team underperform. they are better than 30-30, i'm tellin ya. I know there aren't at full strength, but who is this time of year??

Philadelphia Waist Possessions.... that should be their nickname.

All right, theres my insight on the sixers. have a Good Night. :gulp:
