For a team that was a playoff squad the past two seasons, and one which has players such as Elton Brand and Allen Iverson on board, the Philadelphia 76ers have just been having a difficult time effectively executing at either end of the court. Currently 4th in the Atlantic Division and second-to-last in the Eastern Conference, the Sixers need to step things up if they wish to make a run at a playoff spot. Unfortunately, while having played .500 ball in the last ten games may be a positive thing for many teams, Philadelphia probably needs to be up around the .700 mark for the rest of the campaign if they wish to contend for a playoff berth.

About The Philadelphia 76ers
Across the board, Philadelphia has some solid players leading this team, with shooting guard Andre Iguodala putting up 18 points, 5.9 assists, and 1.9 steals per game, and leading in all three categories, while starting center Samuel Dalembert leads them with 9 rebounds and 2.21 blocks a night, on top of his 7.72 points.
Since Iverson’s return to Philly 13 games ago (through a trade with Memphis), the shooting guard was immediately inserted in the starting lineup and has been averaging 33.3 minutes a night, while tallying 15.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game. Rounding out Philadelphia’s top seven are the remaining role players which will also be relied upon if the 76ers are to be playoff bound; point guard Lou Williams (15.5 points, 3 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.35 steals, forward Thaddeus Young (14.3 points, 5.4 rebounds), well-rounded power forward Elton Brand (13.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1 steal, 1.26 blocks), and backup center Marreese Speights (10.8 points, 5 rebounds) off the bench.
See if Allen Iverson can get this team back to their old days of glory, albeit while attempting to do so in a different role, for a team that has the talent, but just needs that one spark to get them going. Maybe that spark can come from the stands? Get your tickets now to find out, and maybe even help the Philadelphia 76ers make a serious run for the playoffs this season.
The Sixers drafted a new point guard Jrue Holiday with their number 17 pick during the draft. Philadelphia 76ers have shown consistent improvement in their game and wins due in part to the hard work and dedication of improvement of guards Willle Green and Louis Willams along with Center Sam Dalembert. The Sixers also traded power forward Reggie Evans to the Toronto Raptors in return for a three point specialist, Jason Kapono. Kapono has won 3 consecutive shoot-out tournaments and will be a great asset to the Philadelphia 76ers making ticket holders and dedicated fans happier than ever.
