I don't care about this 8th seed business, once you get into the playoffs, the championship is there for the taking. This group of players and Doug Collins showed a lot of grittiness, determination and heart. They will be a team to reckon with for at least the next half decade. I would say they need to improve one player spot. That would be a good scoring forward. If they keep the players and coaching staff together, their ring is on the way.
I was away at the shore and wanted to comment on this, no net access for over a week. The Sixers are the deal, and congratulations to them. Petey
