New Orleans vs. Philly

by **Colin** on Mon Apr 21, 2003 12:59 pm

Well I predicted over at .org that Stacey Augmon would be able to hold AI to aroun d15 or so like the last time they played one another. :oops:

AI scores 55 including 20 in the 4th!!!

by **Brave Sir Rubin** on Mon Apr 21, 2003 1:27 pm

Dallas vs Portland - Nowitzki 46 points
San Antonio vs Pheonix - Marbury Buzzer Beater 3 pointer
Los Angelos vs Minnesota - Kobe 39, Shaq 32

shouldn't that be descused in another thread?

meanwhile...by looking at the box score of today's game...

the sixers couldn't stop Mash (and they were not supposed to)
the main achievent of the Sixers was stopping Baron...without Baron the Hornets can't function...

meanwhile...i'm guessing that the Hornets put Weasley/ Augmon on Ivy...Weasley, being also a shot guard, can't block Ivy and can't match his quickness...while Augmon doesn't have the understanding od the game, the quickness, or the speed to stop IVy...

unless the Hornets put Baron on Ivy...Ivy will keep on dropping huge numbers...

and if Baron did guard Ivy in this game...then this series is practicly finished already...

If Van-Horn stats playing well...the Sixers wo'nt have a problem winnig...sinxce they won with him bearly scoring...

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

iverson finally showed his shooting miracle! if he could hit 20 shots a game every game, he could score at least 25000 points at the end of his career.

That's why I said BTW because it was just a little thing about todays games. Theres no Pistons - Magic thread. Well there will be in about 2 minutes.

Yes how dare you talk about another player. My god, you should be ashamed :lol:

by **Boyk** on Mon Apr 21, 2003 7:58 pm

just a question

has there ever been such a great scorer with the height and weight of iverson??
iverson has showed that he can be a good solid scorer still and be unselfish, all games i saw of him this season, he was unselfish with the ball, of course hes gonna have them 11-28 and etc. games but hey hes the franchise player.

i really like the way iverson has played this year

No one else of similar stature has been such a prolific scorer. Isiah Thomas is about the closest, but his top mark of 22.9 ppg is nowhere near Iverson's 31.4 set last season. Mind you, Thomas was a PG, so averaged considerably more apg. But no, there isn't anyone else (that I can remember offhand) who could score like Iverson.

by **Big Answer** on Mon Apr 21, 2003 10:54 pm

Iverson's the only player of his height 2 play at SG...& to score so much points !
Look how good he was yesterday in the game end ! :shock:

I love the way he plays, & when he is 21 from 32, scoring 55, I'm AMAZED !

Don't forget everyone's hero Tiny Archibald! Lead the league in scoring (34.0ppg) and assists (11.4apg) in the same season.

what a start to the playoffs , i cant remember the last time we had so much excitement in the first round let alone the first games. now that Mj's gone i think its safe to say that the league's in safe hands.

yeah that dunk was nasty!!

Well, there's our answer. Thanks Dan (Y)

though I never knew Archibald led the league in scoring. :oops:

Yes, I did know who he was and that he played in the NBA. :wink:

Sixers win......if Baron doesn't come back for the Hornets we can easily expect a SWEEEEP...

by **The Big Racist** on Thu Apr 24, 2003 1:37 pm

they will sweep for sure cause jamal mashburn breaked a finger

by **Bill Russell** on Thu Apr 24, 2003 2:34 pm

I really believe Philly could even sweep the series. They won today again, despite Iverson not shooting sooooooooo well, and Mashburn is out now, unless he plays with a broken finger. Davis didn't play too.

by **air gordon** on Thu Apr 24, 2003 5:28 pm

poor hornets, seems like they are cursed with having a key player injured come playoff time. last year it was mash, this year it's bdavis. sixers in a good position to advance.

anyone else find it amusing that the philly crowd booed kvh for missing a perimeter shot and minutes later they applauded him for diving to keep the ball inbounds?!

kenny thomas was a great pickup for the sixers

The Hornets have a chance to salvage some dignity by winning one or two, but I agree, a sweep is certainly not out of the question. While the unlikely isn't impossible, I don't see New Orleans coming back from 0-2 to win the series.

by **The Big Racist** on Fri Apr 25, 2003 10:26 pm

sweep! at least i hope so...

by **Rens** on Sat Apr 26, 2003 3:24 am

Amare please edit your post, the page is being stretched too far for comfort.

by **Brave Sir Rubin** on Sun Apr 27, 2003 12:36 pm

sixers loose loose game 3...but since it was at NO i'm not worried :roll:

B.Davis had a great game...including an increadable 4th quarter...

i think he scored more points in the 4th than the entire sixers team...

but we'll still get them....if not away, then at home...

by **The Big Racist** on Sun Apr 27, 2003 4:26 pm

sxers were too confident. they were sure that they can win it and thats why they lost!

Previously, I wrote:a sweep is certainly not out of the question

But I guess now it is. :wink:

I'm still going to pick Sixers in 5, 6 at the most.
