Philadelphia 76ers @ Utah Jazz - Game Thread

Philadelphia 76ers at Utah Jazz, Dec 29, 2008 7:00 PM MST


There's too much to catch up on.  Too much I'm behind on already.  We did screwed in Houston.  No excuses though.  A made free throw by Fess or Brewer and we win the game.

You have to admire the play of the team the past few games.  I emphasize team.  They're playing great together and the youngsters most of all, as has been stated here and elsewhere, are getting crunch time minutes which will battle test them for the stretch run and the playoffs.

As reported by Steve Luhm via BC7, Memo will be back tonight.  WIth Okur starting and Koufos coming off the bench, we're in good shape.

Up tonight are the 76ers.  The Jazz took it to the underachieving Sixers  when they met out east winning 93-80.  WIth Brand out, the Jazz should win again tonight.

Let's get another one.

I feel much better

Two hate-filled posts from Ziller, and my two (probably over-reacting) posts in response, and I feel cathartically cleansed. Let’s get this one, guys.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

So

AK… 13-45 in the last 3 games, and the 0-2 start tonight.

Back to the bench?

Paulie

looks good in a suit. He’d look better in a uniform tonight.

I love

that Boler and Booner seemed so shocked that Harp is missing layups. Which team have you been watching, guys?

lol

love the black-and-white glamor shot of KK as they cut to commercial.

6-11

2-3 from long range…

that’s acceptable.

and again

I will indeed take it.

p.s. UtesFan, why isn’t Devin Harris starting for the Penguins tonight?

Oh crap...

I thought I changed my line-up.
Sh!t.

by UtesFan89 on Dec 29, 2008 8:23 PM MST up reply actions  

not that I'm complaining, mind

because I think you’re going to own me this week anyway. But I don’t wanna win that way, that’s lame.

Then again, you all need every advantage you can get against the dominance that is Rhymes With Satan.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

by Shums on Dec 29, 2008 8:26 PM MST up reply actions  

Yep, I do.

And not starting Harris & Artest today could hurt… especially in the points category.

by UtesFan89 on Dec 29, 2008 8:28 PM MST up reply actions  

That said

you’ve been dominating in points this season, and I’ve been anything but strong there.

And I’m really worried, because my strengths (asts, stls, blks) are also your strengths…

by UtesFan89 on Dec 29, 2008 8:29 PM MST up reply actions  

Harris tonight

26 points, but a +/- of -26. Yikes!

by UtesFan89 on Dec 29, 2008 8:25 PM MST up reply actions  

Absolutely...

…and he keeps filling it up!

My original comment was like “Snap, find that shot, D-will..”

by rxmike12 on Dec 29, 2008 8:24 PM MST up reply actions  

D-WILL

He heard you, Mike.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

He probably heard me yelling happily at my TV. :)

MEMO

I think Pace said this earlier, but he is really mixing up his inside/outside game this year, with the gaps in low post scoring we’ve had.

And for agreeing with/repeating something Pace said, I will now gouge out my eyes with a spoon.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

Our interior defense

is lacking.

I miss Paulie.

I was just telling the wife...

…how well they were playing D on the perimeter, and then they fall apart down the lane.

by rxmike12 on Dec 29, 2008 8:30 PM MST up reply actions  

That..

..is a strange Sloan timeout.

by rxmike12 on Dec 29, 2008 8:31 PM MST reply actions  

I thought the same

The Koof!

I love seeing him play well.

Nasty.

Forget about it. You’re not stopping Deron this evening.

by Shums on Dec 29, 2008 8:35 PM MST reply actions  

wow.

that was a VERY pretty little jump hook from CJ. I had no idea he had that shot in his game.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

by Shums on Dec 29, 2008 8:38 PM MST reply actions  

So will Price ever play again?

From what I saw from Knight in the first half, you think he’ll come in in the 2nd?

by rxmike12 on Dec 29, 2008 8:39 PM MST reply actions  

nice.

Memo misses, tips his own miss, Koof gets the bunny. I sense a burgeoning Jedi/Padawan relationship building there.

by Shums on Dec 29, 2008 8:54 PM MST reply actions  

That..

was lucky as hell. BK needs to grab some bench.

by rxmike12 on Dec 29, 2008 8:56 PM MST reply actions  

agreed

not your night, Brev Brev.

Stupid, Kyle

you’re not going to get the ball away there. Thanks for the T though, refs. Pretty sure Evans didn’t do anything but a butt slap. Unless Evans saw KK’s glamor shot and wanted a piece.

Uh, do you think you could draw me like a ninja?

by Shums on Dec 29, 2008 8:58 PM MST reply actions  

I think this is why he got T'd up...

During a 2006 first round playoff game, Reggie Evans grabbed Los Angeles Clippers center Chris Kaman in the testicles in an attempt to gain a position advantage. Kaman immediately pushed Evans to the floor and later said, “I felt I got a little violated by another man.”3 However, Kaman ultimately decided not to press assault charges against Evans. Evans was fined $10,000, but not suspended for his actions.

forgot about that one. Nice research.

Thanks for carrying the game thread

The holidays have been crazy and I haven’t had something every night there has been a game. Just finishing up the game

by Basketball John on Dec 29, 2008 9:46 PM MST reply actions  

Sorry I missed the convo tonight.

(Not that I’m like missed). :)

But between dinner and the game in HD,,, oh well.

GREAT game, all stepped up and did an excellent job again.

The T was a crap call, both Evans and Kk were lookin at each other with that “WTF” look, and it was friendly between them. Oh well, another point. In the after game interview Kk said that he and Evans, ( guess), were going to try and get it removed from his record as it was a BS call.
