Ballin’: 76ers are Playoff Bound
NBA April 5th. 2008, 12:40pm
Philly 109, Atlanta 104
The 6ers are going to the playoffs after getting 15 points and 10 rebounds from Samuel Dalembert and 30 and 10 from Andre Iguodala. The other Andre, he of the Miller family, finished with 23 points and 6 assists making Joe Johnson’s 32 points for the Hawks moot. Philly is 2 games over .500 while Atlanta is 6 under.Â
Jazz 90, Spurs 64
The Spurs were held to a total of 40 points the final 3 quarters as Utah continued its home dominance, moving to 35-4 on the season. Mehmet Okur had 17 points and 16 boards for the Jazz.Â
Lakers 112, Mavericks 108
Dallas had a 10 point lead at halftime but it didn’t matter – nor did Dirk’s 27 points. Lamar Odom had 31 points and 10 rebounds for the Lakers, and Pau Gasol and Kobe each had 25 and combined for 14 rebounds and 13 assists. The Lakers are good.Â
ÂÂ
Hornets 118, Knicks 110
Facing a tie heading into the 4th quarter, the Hornets broke away thanks to Paul and Peja. Paul finished with 33 points, 4 rebounds and 15 passes that led to baskets. Â Tyson Chandler had 14 points and 8 boards as New Orleans disposed of a crappy team, something they’ve struggled with at times this season.
Warriors 117, Grizzlies 86
Six Warriors finished in double digits and the team combined for 25 assists and 55 rebounds. At 46 and 30, Golden State is a half game behind Denver and 1 game behind Dallas. Just move ‘em East already.

Durant, 2-17 FG (4 points) in loss to Rockets.
I *told* you Battier was DPOY!

Either him or KG would be my pick, but doing that to Durant is not exactly a great achievement.

I’ll be at the Sixers game tonight. Expect a resounding ovation when they take the floor. We’re in the fuckin Eastern Conference playoffs, where ANYTHING can happen.

Good luck to your Redlegs today Nick. Took a beating last night. By the way, Corey Patterson should be batting 9th for your team.

Should be batting for another team.

My people in Cleveland keep telling me what a tough matchup the Cavaliers are for the Celtics in the 2nd round. The Cavs have lost 8 of 13 now…they’re not a tough matchup for anyone at this point.
