I don't think Philly's confidence is up much. Maybe in the newsprint. They
came within a whisper of losing. They couldn't hold the substantial lead
they had in the 1st half. They had many miscues down the stretch late in the
4th,we just didn't execute. The pressure is on them, a must win again Wed.
One thing the Celts have to do if Iverson runs wild is cover Snow better.
