Yay Mahimi!

wow, how many points did he have?

"Deion never played quarterback in the National Football League, so his comments are based off the other side of the ball. If you play my position and criticism can really affect you and hurt you and make you play differently, then you’re only gonna be around for so long anyway. The whole objective is to keep getting better. Keep finding ways to improve, and if your talented enough and good enough, you will lead your team to the Super Bowl. That will happen around here, it will."

Anybody know

why Sean Williams DNP? He barely played in the Thunder game too. I thought he was, like, our savior and everything…guess Carlisle disagrees.

Happy to see Mahinmi have a great game. I think he’s really underrated and will reach his potential with more playing time this year.

I think Ian is the exact reason Sean Williams didn't play.

There’s no room for Sean at the 4 and with Haywood and Ian looking better these last two games, there hasn’t been much need to play Sean.

If I had a nickel for every Super Bowl the Eagles have won, I would have zero nickels.

Well it's nice to get a win.

Despite the outcomes of these first few games, I remain confident in our ability to be a contender by the time the playoffs roll around. John Hollinger can bite me.
