A few less minutes for the top 5, PLEASE1

Maybe the 76ers, with a bit more rest during the game, could have had a chance in overtime. Maybe not.

You can not play the always nicked Coleman 40 + minutes.Of course he is a weak perimeter defender anyway, but hurt and tired, no chance. Salmons needs to learn NBA defense soon, as well, He certainly is gifted enough.



Offensively. when a team switches to zone , they need to flash Coleman or Thomas to the center lane opening. If the defense defends before a shot or a move takes place, they need to quickly throw a crisp pass to the side court or corner, perferably to Robinson or McKie for an easy "j". Then bang the boards from the weak side. Although the zone deters Iverson a bit, it plays nicely into the other players skills. Only on occcasion will lobbing around the perimeter or Iverson knifing between players, break the zone for a score.

I agree, look at the minutes they played

Robinson and Thomas 43
Coleman 42
Iverson 50
Snow 38

Everyone else combined for 49

The minutes dispersal has always been a problem that I have had with the 76ers. They have bench players now and its no longer neccessary to play these guys as long as they do. They will be worn out by the time the playoffs come.
