...the Sixers turned in quite a performance last night against a very good Rockets team. They rebounded effectively even though they were outmatched in the frontcourt and they were able to jumpstart their fastbreak very well. I especially liked the play of Young and Speights who were effective on follow ups and spreading the floor to stretch the defense and allow the rim to be attacked by Miller and Iguodala. Also, Willie Green had a very quiet yet appreciated 14 points in his starter's role. I'm wondering more and more if Iguodala at the SF is indeed the better move. I wanted him to settle in at SG in order to keep Young on the floor at SF but maybe they found the solution for now. I guess time will tell when Brand returns and what matchups are dictated by our opponents.
Overall, Iguodala's play has been steadily improving and, while he still is forcing some shots, I'm liking his improvement on finishing at the rim. He is finding the balance between power moves/drives to the basket and the finesse to finish the shot. Nice win and it becomes even better if they can win in Milwaukee tonight. Otherwise it's just a 1-1 mark which does nothing.
On the topic of what else I should talk about, it is interesting to see some of the voting results. My hobbies and gymnastics are winning ha. Don't think for one minute that I'm not qualified to discuss the wonderful sport of gymnastics....or that I would dread it. As for hobbies, well you'll just have to see all the awesome things I do with my time if that wins out.
