It's crazy how this has gone. I went from saying I'd be happy to have this series go six and now I'm kinda disapointed that it's even. The Sixers haven't developed that killer instinct yet, and I'm guessing that will come with time.

The bench did a great job building a sizable lead, but once the starters came back in it was the beginning of the end. They simply didn't have the same energy. I feel Mo stuck with them far too long in the third quarter. It also seemed like Mo was having trouble figuring out how to get Reggie out there since Maxiell was starting.

Also the Sixers doubled way too often. It was their double teaming that killed them. Also they need to tell them if Rip and Tayshaun are on the perimeter don't leave Prince to run at Rip. Rip isn't going to kill you from the arc, but Tayshaun most definitely will.

Iguodala started off strong but his play waned big time. He hasn't been able to get away from Prince, and when he shoots it on him he alters his release point so much that his shot is often. I said earlier to have him moving and go off screens but it's hard when the only big on the team that sets good screens is Evans. What he needs to do is add a turn around jumper to his repertoire (ala Jamal Mashburn). He also needs to work on tightening up his handle in the offseason.

I'm hoping for 7 games now. I still believe it gets to that point it's anyone's game.
