Are the successful Sixers stagnate?
They're at it again. Despite several roster moves and concerns about chemistry problems, the Sixers have rampaged through the early part of the season, led by Allen Iverson and a happily displaced Keith Van Horn. Although seemingly on their way to a high playoff seed, will this team ever be able to truly compete for a title?
Sixers losing more than games

Surprise, Surprise!!! 76ers Win Game One.
The Philadelphia 76ers were able to pull off the upset with a six point win over the LA Lakers in Game One of the NBA Championship series.
Put away the broom; keep the Sixers' heart

Philadelphia fans celebrate their team being in the NBA Finals for the first time in eighteen years. This is one proud city, which wholeheartedly believes the Sixers will shock the world.

The big "Kie" to the Finals
In the 2001 NBA Finals, Philadelphia's Aaron McKie, not Allen Iverson, will have the final answer to any questions about the Lakers' greatness... and the Sixers' chances.

The Philadelphia 76ers' Eastern Conference title is special because of the growth, maturity and athletic courage that have all defined the team's gutsy playoff run. The NBA Finals is an appropriate award for a team that has paid the price.
Healthy grace versus hobbled grit
Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Milwaukee Bucks and Philadelphia 76ers offers a classic contrast that, amazingly, will enhance an already compelling finale to this epic battle.
Tough break for young Bucks
Eric Snow gave the Sixers his best effort of the year Wednesday night in their 89-88 victory over the Bucks in Game Five of the Conference Finals. He shot an astounding seven for nine from the field, including sinking all four attempts from the charity stripe. Snow played a gritty 27 minutes, scoring 18 points and snatching two steals. Not bad considering Snow played on a fractured and sprained ankle.
A return to fun
The Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks meet once again in the NBA's Eastern Conference Playoffs. Just like their old battles in the early 1980s, this series should be fun.
NBA: Sixers plan to bring 'A' game to Game Two

NBA: Part II : Could the Sixers' season be over ?
In Part I of my analysis I argued that the loss of Theo Ratliff would portend more serious consequences for the Sixers than were reported. On a day that the Sixers acquire Dikembe Mutombo, parting with Ratliff, to address that concern, I conclude my Ratliff analysis. Part III will be a look ahead.
NBA: Part I: Could the Sixers' season be over?
With all of the attention that Allen Iverson's garnered, the media may have carelessly overlooked the potenial impact that the loss of the NBA's best defensive player - Theo Ratliff - could mean for what might be the best team in the NBA. (Part I of a multi-part series.)
NBA: SIxers Trash Man
George Lynch is very good at filling the role of role player.
