Andre Iguodala scored 19 points, Elton Brand had 17 and the Philadelphia 76ers bounced back from a dismal opener to beat the Milwaukee Bucks 99-86 on Friday night. Samuel Dalembert had 10 points and 12 rebounds to help the Sixers look sharp in their home opener. The Sixers have almost been forgotten in Philadelphia with the New York-Philly NFL/World Series doubleheader set for Sunday.

Brew Hoop —
... Box Score / Recap
If you're looking for an explanation for the Bucks' opening night loss in Philly, just pick a stat. Really, any stat. Because if you compare the bottom lines in the box score you'll notice that Philly was better in every category save for offensive rebounds. The Bucks didn't shoot well, which isn't surprising. The Bucks also held to form in the foul department, sending Philly to the line for 15 more free throw attempts (which translated into 18 more points). And while the Bucks normally make a ...
Second Half Redemption
Depressed Fan —
... After a solid start, the Sixers sputtered in the second quarter, but were definitely born again hard when they came out of the locker room for the second half.
