Ok, ready? The Sixers are, um, good. They beat the Hawks (who were 17-8 at home) by 34 last night. 34.

They are 24-27 and in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, having won seven out of their last nine games, including wins against Atlanta and New York, two teams ahead of them in the standings. Phew.

We're not going to stop there, though. Doug Collins has done a fantastic job of molding (ah, clichè!) the young squad (ahh again) into a contender team that might not finish in the seventh or eighth spot and be forced to play the Heat or the Celtics in the playoffs. 

Playoffs? Playoffs?! Yes, playoffs.

Philly Sports Daily has the full story. Highlights after the jump, including Andre Iguodala bricking a dunk because he showboated.

But wait, there's more! You can get first level tickets to see the Sixers for like $25 at Crossing Broad Tickets. I'm going to profit off this shit.

I blacked out, what just happened?
