    Why even bother, who cares whether they lose each game by 20 or 30?

    Why not just give the Heat or Bulls a bye if they get Philly, this team is a fuckin joke. I hope they lose their next 7 and get passed by the Bucks in the playoff race, at least the Bucks are watchable

      They may not get the opportunity to show up. The Bucks may very well catch them. Philly has a b2b2b upcoming and a game at Milwaukee in a week and a half or so.

        Just too many teams in the NBA. Playoffs are always interesting but I'd be a lot more psyched if it just started with the top 4 in each conference.

              Lost 4 gs on the nit wits, on an in game ML -640, Orlando game where they were up 12-15 at one point. Will be housing Bulls series anything under -300.

                Philly has always played Chicago close. A PHILI-CHI series would not be a cake walk for Chicago by any means.

                    I dont have a bet on the Bucks tonight but Im rooting for them tonight just so maybe we wont have to see that Philly trash get swept off the court in the 1st round

                      I would love for the Sixers to get the 8 seed and play Chicago in the first round.

                        The bookies are unfortunately not stupid, the line if they were to play the Bulls or Heat in the 1st round will be probably -1000 or greater for the series

                        I assure you if the series line is -300 for either the Bulls or Heat with homecourt advantage I will mortgage my home and sell my car and every possession I own and empty my bank accounts and put it all on them.

                        This team has played 7 games vs Bulls/Heat this year and lost 6, how they won that 1 out of 7 I'll never know but winning 4 out of 7 while giving up homecourt advantage is close to impossible

                            Sure they could, but the likelihood of Dwayne Wade and Lebron James both dying before the playoffs begin is unlikely

                              philly has absolutely 0% chance vs miami... they matchup awful with them

                              if rose is not 100%, they could at least make it interesting vs chicago

                                They are one injury away from beating either team, just need to sign James Harrison

                                    The Sixers got 1 from Miami last year, they might be able to do the same this year. Expect a 4-1 series.

                                        I agree, since its the NBA the Heat or Bulls will probably play like complete trash in either game 3 or 4 and lose once before slamming the door in a 20 point win at home in game 5, plus that makes the Heat/Bulls a few extra million by having an extra sellout playoff game

                                                  Bullshit

                                                  Sixers cant even beat the Nets at home when they are desperate to get a 6 seed or better to avoid the Bulls or Heat

                                                  The only question is whether or not the Bulls or Heat will sweep or win 4-1 so they can make another 10 million by selling out tickets to game 5 at home

                                                    Lebron has always been on regular season teams. During the season he can overwhelm teams on any given night but series are about adjustments and taking advantage of holes and Miami still has plenty. The Bulls are solid.

                                                    Remember....

                                                        Destroyed them both, but either the Bulls or Miami will walk allover the Sixers in their sleep

                                                          It was luck Rondo and Asik got hurt or they would of lost to both teams

                                                            Philly cant even finish within single digits against the Magic's bench after just gettin raped at home last game by the Nets...fukin shameless

                                                            Here's a prediction for the 76ers/Bulls series

                                                            90-75 Chicago win

                                                            90-70 Chicago win

                                                            95-85 Chicago win

                                                            85-82 Philly magically wins game 4 and Chicago has to play another sellout playoff game where ticket prices are tripled and then...

                                                            100-80 Chicago win

                                                              I assure you if the series line is -300 for either the Bulls or Heat with homecourt advantage I will mortgage my home and sell my car and every possession I own and empty my bank accounts and put it all on them.
                                                              Heritage has it at Bulls -1335 to win the series

                                                                if rose is not 100%, they could at least make it interesting vs chicago
