Abracadabra

It's Magic -- the 76ers have been made to disappear for five months. The Sixers could not have defeated Penn and Teller tonight (well, probably not Penn, as as in the University of...). I was actually glad to be at my desk writing a story about swine flu instead of watching this game...how pathetic is that?

I was listening to local sports talk radio this week and they almost sold me on the unthinkable, which is trading (T.) Young and going old with Miller, Iggy (OK, he just seems old) and Brand. I don't know. They need a pro center AND a shooting guard who can shoot. As Spongebob says, good luck with that...

And serious props to Kate Fagan of the Inquirer for calling this in advance.
