Cavaliers-76ers Preview

The Philadelphia 76ers have taken advantage of some struggling opponents recently to move above .500 at the Wells Fargo Center. If they want push their home winning streak to five, they'll have to snap a pair of losing streaks to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The 76ers try to stop an eight-game home skid and five-game overall slide against the Cavs when the teams meet in Philadelphia for the second time this season Tuesday night.

Philadelphia (6-14) opened a four-game homestand with a 109-91 win over Charlotte on Saturday, its third victory in four games and fourth in a row at home. Those home victories, all of which came against teams that currently have losing records, pushed the 76ers to 5-4 at the Wells Fargo Center.

Cleveland (7-13) is also struggling in the early going, but the Cavs have had little trouble against the 76ers recently, winning 14 of 17 meetings. Cleveland pushed its road run versus Philadelphia to eight with a 123-116 victory Nov. 5.

The 76ers, though, are trying to win five straight at home for the first time since an eight-game run Feb. 5-March 7, 2008. Plus, they're facing a Cavs team that has lost a season-high four in a row by an average of 22.8 points, and has dropped six consecutive road games by 16.2 a contest.

Jodie Meeks helped give the Sixers a winning record at home Saturday, scoring 20 of his 26 points in the first quarter of a 109-91 victory over Charlotte.

The second-year guard made his first career start Friday against Atlanta. He's averaging 8.8 points in 2010-11.

"This league is all about your opportunity," Meeks said. "I tried to do as much as I could early in the season, kept getting better and kept getting better. Now it's paying off."

Meeks started both games in place of rookie Evan Turner, who's averaging 7.5 points while shooting 41.6 percent.

Cleveland is coming off a 102-92 road defeat to last-place Detroit on Sunday. Antawn Jamison led five Cavs in double figures with 22 points and went 8 of 17 from the field, but his teammates shot 40.3 percent.

Cleveland had lost its previous two games by a combined 62 points. The Cavs managed to lead the Pistons after one quarter and scored 20 points off 15 turnovers.

"Obviously, I'm not happy about the loss, but I am a bit happier by the fact that our guys competed out there," coach Byron Scott said. "That's a step in the right direction, but we've got to do it again Tuesday, and do it even harder and even better."

Scott's team has shot 38.8 percent over the last three games while averaging 91.0 points. Cleveland may have a tough time getting on track offensively against Philadelphia, which has held its last four opponents to 87.3 points on 40.6 percent from the floor.

The Cavs won the second meeting of the season with Sixers 101-93 at Quicken Loans Arena on Nov. 16.

Young helps 76ers pound Cavaliers 117-97

Posted Dec 07 2010 10:47PM

PHILADELPHIA (AP) Thaddeus Young had so much fun Tuesday night he wanted the game to last forever. It sure seemed that long for Cleveland coach Byron Scott.

Young had a season-high 26 points and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the struggling Cavaliers 117-97 on Tuesday night for their fourth win in five games.

"I definitely wanted it to keep going," said Young, who is shooting 61 percent from the floor in his past nine games. "If it kept going, I get to 40 (points)."

Lou Williams scored 13 of his 19 points in the fourth quarter for Philadelphia, which placed seven players in double figures in its highest scoring output of the season. Jodie Meeks and Jrue Holiday had 16 points apiece, Andre Iguodala scored 13 and Elton Brand finished with 12.

All five of Philadelphia's starters scored in double digits for the first time this season.

J.J. Hickson had 18 points for Cleveland, which has lost five consecutive games by an average of 22.2 points. Daniel Gibson scored 16 and Mo Williams added 15.

Young made 11 of 12 shots from the field and also had a season-high 11 rebounds as the Sixers bettered their previous scoring high set in a 123-116 loss to the Cavaliers on Nov. 3. He scored 17 of Philadelphia's 66 first-half points, a team high for any half this season.

"I'm having a great time, having fun out there," Young said.

Cleveland has dropped nine of 11 overall, surrendering at least 100 points in each of those losses. They entered with a five-game winning streak in the series against Philadelphia

"I'm very disappointed with this whole road trip," said Scott, who questioned the team's effort. "We're getting beat off the dribble like we're not even there. Pride has to come into it. Guys go right down the lane for easy layups and nobody seems upset by it. Everybody has to do a lot of soul-searching."

After a slow start, Philadelphia (7-14) found its shooting touch against one of the league's worst defenses, shooting 26 of 46 from the floor and 11 of 15 from the free-throw line to build a 66-54 halftime lead.

Cleveland (7-14) stumbled in the third quarter and Spencer Hawes made a 3-pointer with 2:27 left to increase Philadelphia's lead to 89-66.

A mini-rally helped the Cavaliers pull within 11 early in the fourth quarter on Gibson's 3-pointer, but the Sixers responded with a 14-4 run to put the game away. Williams made six free throws during that key stretch.

"Lou was able to get to the line and really seal the game for us," coach Doug Collins said. "It was a terrific win."

Despite its lackluster record, the Sixers have been outscored by just 10 points this season, and have won five straight at the Wells Fargo Center.

"It's very refreshing," Young said. "Any time we can go out there and get four out of five victories, it's big for the team. We need those wins that help us make a push for the playoffs and help get us in the mix for things."

Collins said Young is an effective player when he stays within himself, and that means staying within the 3-point line.

"I told him that 3-point line is like the electric fence that you put in your yard with a dog," Collins said. "You get across and it shocks you, so stay in front of it."

Though he made a 3-point shot on Tuesday, Young agreed that long-range shooting isn't his forte.

"Hey, I'm not living and dying by 3s," Young said. "I'm trying to get to the basket and doing whatever the coach wants me to do. I know my strengths and my weaknesses. My weakness is shooting 3s, and I'm not going to shoot a lot of them."

NOTES: With 10 points and 12 rebounds, Hawes recorded his first double-double of the season. ... Meeks made his third straight start since replacing Evan Turner, the No. 2 overall pick, in the starting lineup. He scored a career-high 26 points on Dec. 4. ... Cleveland has lost by 20 or more points six times this season.

Sixers-Cavaliers notebook

By Mike Radano, for NBA.com
Posted Tuesday December 7, 2010 10:28PM

THE FACTS: Thaddeus Young scored a game-high 26 points as the Sixers pounded the Cavaliers 117-97 at the Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday night. The Sixers (7-14) had seven players reach double figures in scoring as they won for the fifth consecutive time at home.

The Cavaliers (7-14) extended their losing streak to five straight and have now lost nine of their last 11 dating back to a 101-93 win over the Sixers in Philly on Nov. 16.

Neither team played much defense as the Sixers jumped out to a 66-54 halftime lead on the strength of 56.5 percent (26-for-46) shooting. The Cavaliers were actually better from the field as they shot 57.9 percent (22-38) in the first half.

The Cavaliers were led by J.J. Hickson, who had 19 points in the loss.

QUOTABLE: "He's been getting better and better every night. He had a nice interior presence for us. He's got that cocky part I thought he lost that in Sacramento and now he's getting resurrected." - Sixers coach Doug Collins on the improved play of Sixers center Spencer Hawes, who finished with 10 points and 12 rebounds.

THE STAT: The Sixers set season highs for points in the first quarter (35) and in a half (66) as they took a commanding 66-54 lead into halftime.

TURNING POINT: Young hit a nine-foot jumper to give the Sixers a 24-22 lead with 2:45 left in the first quarter. The shot started a 13-4 run that resulted in a 35-26 lead after one quarter of play, one the Sixers would never surrender.

QUOTABLE II: "I didn't think the effort was much in the first half. We're just getting beat of the dribble like we're not even there. I don't know what it's going to take because as I stated at halftime, I'm pretty upset and I let the guys know that somewhere along the line, pride has to come into play. It's just has to. You can't keep getting beat like we keep getting beat off the dribble and letting teams down the lane for easy lay ups and nobody gets upset about it." -Cavaliers coach Byron Scott, on his team's poor effort over five consecutive losses.

HOT: Young has scored 20-plus points in each of his last two games after accomplishing the feat just once in the previous 19 games. He had a season-high 11 rebounds for his first double-double of the season after he had six in his first two seasons combined.

NOT: The Cavaliers have lost five consecutive games by an average of 22.2 points. Cleveland has lost by 20 or more points five times this season.

FANTASY SPOTLIGHT: Hawes scored registered his first double-double of the season. The 7-foot-1 product of Washington has averaged 7.1 ppg over his last nine games.

GUARD PLAY: Jodie Meeks continued his recent strong play with 16 points alongside Jrue Holiday, who had 16 points with seven assists.

BAD MOVE: The Cavaliers took the day off after their 102-92 loss at Detroit on Sunday. It didn't help and Antawn Jamison joked with the local Cleveland Fox affiliate that he would have preferred to have gotten right back out on the court. Granted, the way the Cavaliers have played recently off day or not the result may not have changed.

UP NEXT: For Cleveland vs. Chicago (Wednesday), vs. at Houston (Saturday), at Oklahoma City (Sunday), at Miami (Dec. 15), at Indiana (Dec. 17). For Philadelphia vs. Boston (Thursday), vs. New Orleans (Sunday), at New Jersey (Dec. 14), vs. Los Angeles Clippers (Dec. 15), vs. Los Angeles Lakers (Dec. 17).
