▁After ▁defe ating ▁Cleveland ▁in ▁the ▁first ▁round ▁of ▁the ▁play offs , ▁Philadelphia ▁faced ▁Michael ▁Jordan ▁and ▁the ▁Chicago ▁Bull s ▁in ▁the ▁second ▁round . ▁The ▁ 7 6 ers ▁fell ▁to ▁the ▁Chicago ▁Bull s ▁in ▁five ▁games , ▁and ▁would ▁do ▁the ▁same ▁in ▁ 1 9 9 1 ▁after ▁swe eping ▁the ▁Buck s ▁in ▁the ▁first ▁round . ▁In ▁ 1 9 9 1 – 9 2 , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁went ▁ 3 5 - 4 7 ▁and ▁missed ▁the ▁play offs ▁for ▁the ▁just ▁the ▁second ▁time ▁during ▁B ark ley ' s ▁eight ▁seasons ▁in ▁Philadelphia . ▁On ▁June ▁ 1 7 , ▁ 1 9 9 2 , ▁B ark ley ▁was ▁trad ed ▁to ▁the ▁Phoenix ▁S uns ▁for ▁Jeff ▁Horn ace k , ▁Tim ▁Perry , ▁and ▁Andrew ▁Lang , ▁a ▁deal ▁that ▁was ▁met ▁with ▁har sh ▁criticism . ▁▁ 1 9 9 2 – 1 9 9 6 : ▁The ▁dark ▁ages ▁L ynam ▁rel in qu ished ▁his ▁head ▁co aching ▁position ▁to ▁become ▁general ▁manager ▁following ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 1 – 9 2 ▁season , ▁and ▁h ired ▁Doug ▁Mo e ▁to ▁fill ▁the ▁vac ancy . ▁Mo e ' s ▁ten ure ▁last ed ▁just ▁ 5 6 ▁games , ▁with ▁the ▁Six ers ▁posting ▁a ▁ 1 9 – 3 7 ▁record . ▁Popular ▁former ▁player ▁and ▁long time ▁assistant ▁coach ▁Fred ▁Carter ▁succeeded ▁Mo e ▁as ▁head ▁coach ▁in ▁March |
▁ 1 9 9 3 , ▁but ▁could ▁only ▁manage ▁a ▁ 3 2 – 7 6 ▁record ▁at ▁the ▁hel m . ▁Following ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 3 – 9 4 ▁season , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁h ired ▁John ▁Lucas ▁in ▁the ▁dual ▁role ▁of ▁head ▁coach ▁and ▁general ▁manager . ▁The ▁enthus i astic ▁Lucas ▁had ▁been ▁successful ▁as ▁a ▁head ▁coach ▁for ▁the ▁San ▁Antonio ▁Sp urs , ▁and ▁Philadelphia ▁hoped ▁he ▁could ▁bre at he ▁new ▁life ▁into ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers . ▁It ▁proved ▁dis astr ous , ▁as ▁the ▁team ▁went ▁ 4 2 – 1 2 2 ▁in ▁its ▁two ▁seasons ▁under ▁Lucas . ▁The ▁ac quisition ▁of ▁un product ive ▁free ▁agents ▁such ▁as ▁Scott ▁Williams ▁and ▁Charles ▁Sh ack le ford , ▁players ▁at ▁the ▁end ▁of ▁their ▁care ers ▁such ▁as ▁La S alle ▁Thompson , ▁Or lando ▁W ool ridge , ▁and ▁Scott ▁Sk iles ▁along ▁with ▁st unning ly ▁un wise ▁high ▁draft ▁pick s ▁such ▁as ▁Sh awn ▁Brad ley ▁and ▁Sh ar one ▁Wright ▁were ▁also ▁factors ▁in ▁the ▁team ' s ▁decl ine . ▁In ▁fact , ▁Wright ▁would ▁only ▁play ▁four ▁seasons ▁in ▁the ▁NBA ▁while ▁Temple ▁product ▁Edd ie ▁Jones — d raft ed ▁ 4 ▁sl ots ▁below ▁Wright ▁in ▁ 1 9 9 4 ▁by ▁the ▁L .

1 9 9 0 – 9 1 ▁season , ▁and ▁ending ▁with ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 5 – 9 6 ▁season , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁had ▁the ▁dub ious ▁distinction ▁of ▁seeing ▁their ▁win ▁total ▁decrease ▁each ▁year . ▁The ▁nad ir ▁was ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 5 – 9 6 ▁season , ▁when ▁they ▁finished ▁with ▁an ▁ 1 8 – 6 4 ▁record , ▁the ▁second - wor st ▁in ▁franch ise ▁history . ▁It ▁was ▁also ▁the ▁second - wor st ▁record ▁in ▁the ▁league ▁that ▁year , ▁ahead ▁of ▁only ▁the ▁expansion ▁V ancouver ▁G ri zz lies ▁but ▁behind ▁the ▁Toronto ▁R apt ors , ▁who ▁were ▁also ▁in ▁their ▁inaug ural ▁season . ▁That ▁season ▁would ▁turn ▁out ▁to ▁be ▁their ▁last ▁in ▁The ▁Spect rum . ▁K atz , ▁un pop ular ▁among ▁fans ▁since ▁the ▁ 1 9 8 6 ▁tr ades , ▁sold ▁the ▁team ▁to ▁Com cast ▁Spect ac or , ▁a ▁cons ort ium ▁of ▁Philadelphia ▁Fly ers ▁owner ▁Ed ▁Sn ider ▁and ▁Com cast ▁Corporation , ▁at ▁the ▁end ▁of ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 5 – 9 6 ▁season . ▁ ▁Sn ider ▁had ▁been ▁the ▁Six ers ' ▁land l ord ▁since ▁gain ing ▁control ▁of ▁the ▁Spect rum ▁in ▁ 1 9 7 1 . ▁Pat ▁Cro ce , ▁a ▁former ▁tra iner ▁for ▁the ▁Fly ers ▁and ▁Six ers , ▁took ▁over ▁as ▁president . ▁ ▁Many ▁ 7 6 ers ▁fans ▁call |
▁these ▁years ▁" The ▁Dark ▁A ges ". ▁However , ▁after ▁many ▁years ▁of ▁mis fort une , ▁there ▁was ▁a ▁bright ▁spot . ▁The ▁team ▁won ▁the ▁lot tery ▁for ▁the ▁top ▁pick ▁in ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 6 ▁NBA ▁draft . ▁Question s ▁remained , ▁but ▁with ▁the ▁first ▁pick , ▁the ▁Six ers ▁found ▁their ▁" Answer ": ▁Allen ▁I vers on . ▁▁ 1 9 9 6 – 2 0 0 6 : ▁The ▁Allen ▁I vers on ▁era ▁With ▁new ▁ownership , ▁I vers on ▁in ▁place , ▁and ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁moving ▁into ▁the ▁Core St ates ▁Center , ▁things ▁seemed ▁to ▁finally ▁be ▁heading ▁in ▁a ▁positive ▁direction . ▁Cro ce ▁fired ▁Lucas ▁as ▁both ▁coach ▁and ▁general ▁manager . ▁Johnny ▁Davis ▁was ▁named ▁head ▁coach , ▁while ▁Brad ▁Green berg ▁took ▁over ▁as ▁general ▁manager . ▁I vers on ▁was ▁named ▁Ro ok ie ▁of ▁the ▁Year , ▁but ▁Philadelphia ' s ▁overall ▁improvement ▁was ▁minimal , ▁as ▁they ▁finished ▁with ▁a ▁ 2 2 – 6 0 ▁record . ▁Ch anges ▁had ▁to ▁be ▁made , ▁and ▁after ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 6 – 9 7 ▁season , ▁Davis ▁and ▁Green berg ▁were ▁both ▁fired ▁and ▁the ▁un ve iling ▁of ▁a ▁new ▁ 7 6 ers ▁team ▁logo ▁and ▁j er se ys ▁marked ▁a ▁new ▁era . ▁To ▁replace ▁Davis , ▁Larry ▁Brown ▁was ▁h ired ▁as ▁head ▁coach . ▁Kn own ▁for ▁a ▁defense - first ▁approach |
▁and ▁transform ing ▁un success ful ▁teams ▁into ▁w inners ▁by ▁" play ing ▁the ▁right ▁way ", ▁Brown ▁faced ▁perhaps ▁his ▁t ough est ▁co aching ▁challenge . ▁He ▁often ▁cl ashed ▁with ▁I vers on , ▁but ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁improved ▁to ▁ 3 1 ▁wins ▁in ▁ 1 9 9 7 – 9 8 . ▁Early ▁in ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 7 – 9 8 ▁season , ▁the ▁Six ers ▁trad ed ▁Jerry ▁Stack house , ▁who ▁had ▁been ▁the ▁third ▁overall ▁pick ▁in ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 5 ▁NBA ▁draft , ▁to ▁the ▁Detroit ▁P ist ons . ▁In ▁exchange , ▁Philadelphia ▁received ▁A aron ▁McK ie ▁and ▁The o ▁Rat l iff , ▁def ensive ▁stand outs ▁who ▁would ▁have ▁an ▁impact ▁in ▁the ▁team ' s ▁res urg ence . ▁Another ▁key ▁figure ▁in ▁the ▁team ' s ▁rise , ▁Eric ▁Snow , ▁was ▁added ▁in ▁a ▁trade ▁with ▁the ▁Seattle ▁Super S on ics ▁in ▁January ▁ 1 9 9 8 . ▁ ▁Prior ▁to ▁the ▁ 1 9 9 8 – 9 9 ▁season , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁signed ▁George ▁Lyn ch ▁and ▁Matt ▁Ge iger , ▁but ▁a ▁length y ▁lock out ▁delayed ▁the ▁start ▁of ▁the ▁season , ▁which ▁was ▁short ened ▁to ▁ 5 0 ▁games . ▁During ▁the ▁season , ▁Philadelphia ▁acquired ▁T yr one ▁Hill ▁in ▁a ▁trade ▁with ▁Mil w au kee . ▁The ▁team ▁began ▁its ▁res urg ence ▁during ▁this ▁strike |
- short ened ▁season , ▁finishing ▁with ▁a ▁ 2 8 – 2 2 ▁record ▁and ▁the ▁sixth ▁seed ▁in ▁the ▁Eastern ▁Conference ▁play offs , ▁mark ing ▁the ▁first ▁time ▁since ▁ 1 9 9 1 ▁the ▁team ▁reached ▁the ▁post season . ▁In ▁the ▁first ▁round , ▁Philadelphia ▁ups et ▁the ▁Or lando ▁Magic , ▁three ▁games ▁to ▁one , ▁before ▁being ▁swe pt ▁by ▁the ▁Indiana ▁Pac ers . ▁The ▁following ▁season , ▁the ▁Six ers ▁improved ▁to ▁ 4 9 – 3 3 , ▁fifth ▁in ▁the ▁East . ▁Again , ▁the ▁Six ers ▁won ▁their ▁first ▁round ▁series ▁in ▁four ▁games , ▁this ▁time ▁defe ating ▁the ▁Charlotte ▁Hor net s . ▁For ▁the ▁second ▁straight ▁year , ▁they ▁were ▁defeated ▁by ▁Indiana ▁in ▁the ▁second ▁round , ▁this ▁time ▁in ▁six ▁games . ▁Though ▁the ▁team ▁was ▁moving ▁in ▁a ▁positive ▁direction , ▁I vers on ▁and ▁Brown ▁continued ▁to ▁cl ash , ▁and ▁their ▁relationship ▁d eter ior ated ▁to ▁the ▁point ▁where ▁it ▁seemed ▁certain ▁I vers on ▁would ▁be ▁trad ed . ▁A ▁rum ored ▁trade ▁to ▁the ▁Los ▁Angeles ▁C li ppers ▁fell ▁through , ▁but ▁a ▁complicated ▁four - team ▁deal ▁that ▁would ' ve ▁seen ▁I vers on ▁sent ▁to ▁Detroit ▁was ▁agreed ▁upon , ▁only ▁to ▁see ▁it ▁dissol ve ▁due ▁to ▁sal ary ▁cap ▁problems . ▁When ▁it ▁became ▁clear ▁I vers on ▁was ▁stay ing ▁in ▁Philadelphia , ▁he ▁and ▁Brown ▁worked ▁to ▁patch ▁things ▁up , ▁and |
▁the ▁team ▁would ▁re ap ▁the ▁benefits ▁in ▁ 2 0 0 0 – 0 1 . ▁▁ 2 0 0 0 – 0 1 ▁season ▁ ▁During ▁the ▁ 2 0 0 0 – 0 1 ▁season , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁got ▁off ▁to ▁a ▁hot ▁start ▁by ▁winning ▁their ▁first ▁ten ▁games ▁and ▁were ▁never ▁seriously ▁challeng ed ▁in ▁the ▁Atlantic ▁Division . ▁Larry ▁Brown ▁co ached ▁the ▁Eastern ▁Conference ▁All - St ars , ▁and ▁Allen ▁I vers on ▁was ▁named ▁M VP ▁of ▁the ▁All - Star ▁Game . ▁Short ly ▁before ▁the ▁All - Star ▁break , ▁The o ▁Rat l iff ▁was ▁lost ▁for ▁the ▁season ▁with ▁a ▁w rist ▁injury , ▁one ▁that ▁would ▁later ▁prove ▁to ▁be ▁dev ast ating ▁to ▁his ▁future ▁career . ▁Despite ▁holding ▁a ▁ 4 1 – 1 4 ▁record ▁and ▁a ▁comfortable ▁lead ▁at op ▁both ▁the ▁Atlantic ▁Division ▁and ▁Eastern ▁Conference ▁stand ings ▁at ▁the ▁time ▁of ▁the ▁February ▁ 2 2 ▁trade ▁dead line , ▁management ▁felt ▁the ▁team ▁needed ▁an ▁established ▁center ▁to ▁advance ▁deep ▁into ▁the ▁play offs . ▁On ▁that ▁day , ▁Philadelphia ▁acquired ▁D ik em be ▁Mut om bo ▁from ▁the ▁Atlanta ▁Haw ks ▁in ▁a ▁deal ▁that ▁sent ▁the ▁injured ▁Rat l iff ▁along ▁with ▁Naz r ▁Moh ammed , ▁T oni ▁K uk o č , ▁and ▁Pe pe ▁S ánchez ▁to ▁Atlanta ▁( S ánchez ▁was ▁re ac quired ▁later ▁in ▁the ▁season ▁after ▁the ▁Haw ks |

▁Final s ▁against ▁the ▁Mil w au kee ▁Buck s . ▁After ▁the ▁teams ▁split ▁the ▁first ▁two ▁games ▁of ▁the ▁series ▁in ▁Philadelphia , ▁it ▁was ▁learned ▁I vers on ▁would ▁miss ▁Game ▁Three ▁due ▁to ▁various ▁nag ging ▁inj uries ▁that ▁had ▁pl ag ued ▁him ▁late ▁in ▁the ▁season . ▁Though ▁most ▁predicted ▁a ▁Mil w au kee ▁c ake walk , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁kept ▁the ▁game ▁close ▁before ▁falling , ▁ 8 0 – 7 4 . ▁Philadelphia ▁seemed ▁to ▁gain ▁momentum ▁despite ▁the ▁loss , ▁and ▁they ▁would ▁win ▁Games ▁Four ▁and ▁Five . ▁Mil w au kee ▁put ▁any ▁Six er ▁celebr ation ▁plans ▁on ▁hold ▁by ▁building ▁up ▁a ▁ 3 3 - point ▁lead ▁in ▁the ▁third ▁quarter ▁of ▁Game ▁Six , ▁but ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁would ▁make ▁a ▁fur ious ▁fourth - qu arter ▁r ally ▁before ▁falling ▁ 1 1 0 – 1 0 0 . ▁Str ugg ling ▁in ▁the ▁series ▁up ▁to ▁that ▁point , ▁I vers on ▁scored ▁ 2 6 ▁points ▁in ▁the ▁final ▁quarter ▁to ▁finish ▁with ▁ 4 6 ▁on ▁the ▁night ▁and ▁appeared ▁to ▁have ▁got ten ▁a ▁second ▁wind . ▁In ▁Game ▁Seven , ▁the ▁Buck s ▁jump ed ▁out ▁to ▁a ▁ 3 4 – 2 5 ▁second ▁quarter ▁advantage ▁before ▁s eld om - used ▁reserve ▁R aja ▁Bell ▁scored ▁ 1 0 ▁points ▁to ▁spark ▁a ▁ 2 3 – 4 ▁run ▁that ▁gave ▁Philadelphia ▁the ▁lead |
▁for ▁good . ▁I vers on ▁scored ▁ 4 4 ▁points ▁and ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁pulled ▁away ▁in ▁the ▁second ▁half , ▁winning ▁by ▁a ▁ 1 0 8 – 9 1 ▁score ▁to ▁put ▁them ▁in ▁the ▁NBA ▁Final s ▁for ▁the ▁first ▁time ▁since ▁ 1 9 8 3 . ▁As ▁had ▁been ▁the ▁case ▁in ▁their ▁three ▁previous ▁Final s ▁appearances , ▁their ▁oppon ent ▁would ▁be ▁the ▁Los ▁Angeles ▁L akers , ▁who ▁had ▁run ▁up ▁an ▁ 1 1 – 0 ▁record ▁in ▁the ▁first ▁three ▁r ounds ▁of ▁the ▁play offs ▁and ▁were ▁expected ▁by ▁many ▁to ▁make ▁quick ▁work ▁of ▁a ▁worn - down ▁ 7 6 ers ▁squad . ▁Because ▁of ▁a ▁seem ingly ▁meaning less ▁loss ▁to ▁the ▁low ly ▁Chicago ▁Bull s ▁in ▁the ▁regular ▁season ▁finale ▁( both ▁the ▁Six ers ▁and ▁the ▁L akers ▁finished ▁with ▁identical ▁ 5 6 – 2 6 ▁records , ▁but ▁Los ▁Angeles ▁was ▁awarded ▁a ▁higher ▁seed ▁based ▁on ▁tie break ers ), ▁the ▁NBA ▁Final s ▁marked ▁the ▁first ▁time ▁in ▁the ▁ 2 0 0 1 ▁play offs ▁in ▁which ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁had ▁to ▁start ▁a ▁series ▁on ▁the ▁road . ▁ ▁In ▁Game ▁One , ▁the ▁L akers ▁jump ed ▁out ▁to ▁an ▁ 1 8 – 5 ▁lead , ▁but ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁storm ed ▁back ▁to ▁take ▁a ▁ 1 5 - point ▁lead ▁in ▁the ▁second ▁half . ▁Los ▁Angeles ▁r al |
lied ▁to ▁force ▁a ▁ 9 4 – 9 4 ▁tie ▁at ▁the ▁end ▁of ▁reg ulation ▁before ▁scoring ▁the ▁first ▁five ▁points ▁of ▁the ▁over time ▁period , ▁but ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁closed ▁the ▁game ▁on ▁a ▁ 1 3 – 2 ▁run ▁for ▁a ▁ 1 0 7 – 1 0 1 ▁triumph . ▁I vers on ▁hit ▁a ▁go - a head ▁three - pointer ▁with ▁ 1 : 1 9 ▁to ▁go ▁in ▁the ▁extra ▁period , ▁and ▁followed ▁that ▁with ▁a ▁jump ▁shot ▁after ▁which ▁he ▁inf am ously ▁stepped ▁over ▁Ty ron n ▁L ue ▁after ▁making ▁the ▁basket . ▁Eric ▁Snow ▁hit ▁a ▁running ▁jump ▁shot ▁in ▁the ▁w an ing ▁seconds ▁with ▁the ▁shot ▁clock ▁exp iring ▁to ▁cl inch ▁the ▁st unning ▁victory . ▁The ▁series ▁would ▁come ▁back ▁to ▁Philadelphia ▁even ▁as ▁Los ▁Angeles ▁took ▁Game ▁Two , ▁ 9 8 – 8 9 . ▁In ▁Game ▁Three , ▁Sh aqu ille ▁O ' Ne al ▁fou led ▁out ▁late ▁in ▁the ▁fourth ▁quarter , ▁and ▁the ▁Six ers ▁pulled ▁to ▁within ▁a ▁point ▁with ▁less ▁than ▁a ▁minute ▁to ▁play ▁after ▁trailing ▁by ▁ 1 2 ▁earlier ▁in ▁the ▁second ▁half . ▁Robert ▁H orry , ▁however , ▁hit ▁a ▁cl utch ▁three - pointer ▁in ▁that ▁final ▁minute , ▁and ▁the ▁L akers ▁pre va iled , ▁ 9 6 – 9 1 . ▁Los ▁Angeles ▁wrapped ▁up ▁the ▁second ▁of ▁what ▁would ▁be ▁three ▁consecutive ▁NBA ▁titles ▁with |
▁a ▁ 1 0 0 – 8 6 ▁win ▁in ▁Game ▁Four ▁and ▁a ▁ 1 0 8 – 9 6 ▁victory ▁in ▁Game ▁Five . ▁ ▁In ▁addition ▁to ▁their ▁Atlantic ▁Division ▁and ▁Eastern ▁Conference ▁titles , ▁the ▁ 2 0 0 0 – 0 1 ▁ 7 6 ers ▁featured ▁the ▁NBA ' s ▁M VP ▁( I vers on ), ▁Co ach ▁of ▁the ▁Year ▁( B rown ), ▁Def ensive ▁Player ▁of ▁the ▁Year ▁( M ut om bo ), ▁and ▁Six th ▁Man ▁of ▁the ▁Year ▁( A aron ▁McK ie ). ▁ ▁Depart ure ▁of ▁Larry ▁Brown ▁The ▁ 7 6 ers ▁went ▁into ▁the ▁ 2 0 0 1 – 0 2 ▁season ▁with ▁high ▁expect ations , ▁but ▁were ▁able ▁to ▁produce ▁only ▁a ▁ 4 3 – 3 9 ▁record , ▁sixth ▁in ▁the ▁Eastern ▁Conference . ▁In ▁the ▁first ▁round ▁of ▁the ▁play offs , ▁Philadelphia ▁was ▁defeated ▁by ▁the ▁Boston ▁C elt ics , ▁three ▁games ▁to ▁two . ▁In ▁ 2 0 0 2 – 0 3 , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁s print ed ▁to ▁a ▁ 1 5 – 4 ▁start , ▁but ▁a ▁ 1 0 – 2 0 ▁swo on ▁left ▁them ▁ 2 5 – 2 4 ▁at ▁the ▁All - Star ▁break . ▁After ▁the ▁break , ▁the ▁ 7 6 ers ▁caught ▁fire , ▁winning ▁nine ▁in ▁a ▁row ▁at ▁one ▁point , ▁and ▁ 2 3 ▁of ▁their ▁last ▁ 3 3 |
