- The Sixers have now defeated the World Champions twice this season. Andre Miller and Andre Iguodala led the Sixers to an overtime victory last night. Granted Shaq is still out but the Sixers played the complete opposite of Wednesday's game against Memphis.
- Is Larry Brown getting ready to return to the Sixers as head coach next year. When Ed Snider was asked if Brown would coach for the Sixers again, he responded by saying, "I don't know." This is different than all the public denials that Billy King and Brown have given over the past month. In his heart, Brown is a basketball coach not a vice president of whatever he is. I would be surprised if Brown didn't end up on the Sixers bench by the beginning of next year.
- The Peter Forsberg rumors are flying now. The Flyers are reportedly interested in a rental situation in that they would trade Forsberg but then sign him again in the summer. The rumors cite the New York Rangers as the favorite to land him. Forsberg is returning to Sweden to see a doctor about his right ankle and that visit could go a long way in determining his future.
- Next Saturday, January 27th, the Phillies Winter Caravan will be at Park City in Lancaster County. They will be there for autographs from noon to 1:30.
- Today at 1:00, the Flyers travel to the Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford to face the division leading, New Jersey Devils. It would be great to see the Flyers hand them a loss. Also today at 1:00 in the Wachovia Center, potential future Sixer, Kevin Durant, leads his Texas squad into Philly to face the Villanova Wildcats.
