PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Before coach Doug Collins had his Philadelphia 76ers look
ahead to Game 6, he had them rewind the tape to a dusty Game 7.
He slipped in a highlight video of Sixers vs. Celtics, Game 7, 1982 Eastern
Conference finals.
The Sixers blew a 3-1 lead in that series and were forced to win Game 7 on
the road to reach the finals - which they did.
The Sixers trail this season's East semifinals 3-2 entering Wednesday's Game
6 in Philadelphia. But Collins wanted to push the point that winning another
Game 7 on the road can be done.
First, Game 6.
No team has won consecutive games in this series.
