Allen Iverson scored nine of his game-high 29 points in the decisive fourth quarter to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 100-93 victory over the Vancouver Grizzlies.

The win extended the 76ers dominance of the Grizzlies to seven games, their longest current winning streak against any opponent.

With Vancouver leading 85-84 with 5:21 remaining, Iverson completed a 3-point play to put the 76ers ahead to stay. The superstar guard added two jumpers from the right corner to give Philadelphia a 91-87 cushion at the 3:39 mark.

"I just got out and ran the lanes and my teammates got me the ball," Iverson said. "When I make a couple of shots, they just keep coming to me."

Mike Bibby hit a driving layup to keep the Grizzlies close at 95-91 with 0:34 left. But Iverson, Aaron McKie and Eric Snow combined for five free throws to put away the game.

"I thought (Vancouver) played great. I thought we played darn good as well," Philadelphia coach Larry Brown said. "We were fortunate to make the big shots down the stretch."

"We just don't have the depth from an offensive perspective to maintain continuity," said Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins, who spent three seasons as a member of the Sixers.

Matt Geiger had his best game of the season, scoring 20 points on 9-of-15 shooting. The 76ers' center is finding his groove after missing the first 17 games of the season recovering from arthroscopic surgery on his left knee.

"It's coming," Geiger said. "Tonight I hit the shots I've been taking all year and they finally fell."

Iverson scored five points during a 13-2 first-quarter run to give the Sixers a 23-8 lead with 3:39 remaining. The Grizzlies responded with a 12-2 spurt to cut the deficit to 25-20 at the end of the period. Bibby and Shareef Abdur-Rahim scored four points a piece.

The game remained close throughout second quarter, with Philadelphia taking a 50-48 lead at halftime.

Vancouver came out strong in the third quarter, scoring seven straight points to take a 59-52 advantage at the 8:37 mark. The Grizzlies maintained a 67-61 lead with 4:42 left, but Philadelphia closed the period with a 10-4 run to forge a 71-71 tie entering the final period.

George Lynch scored 10 points and grabbed 14 rebounds for the Sixers, who scored 23 points off 13 Vancouver turnovers.

Abdur-Rahim tallied 24 points and grabbed 12 rebounds for the Grizzlies, who have lost six of their last eight home games.

Bibby finished with 18 points and 13 assists for Vancouver, which shot 48 percent (40-for-83) from the floor but was outscored 23-12 at the foul line.

Bryant Reeves had 18 points and eight rebounds before fouling out with 33 seconds left in the game.
