Ain't ya'll got Villanova
76ers GM Sam Hickie Steps Down
- Thread starter FS4LFE
- Start date
say what you want about colangelo
but he hired masai
hired casey
drafted valunciunas
drafted derozan
traded for lowry
it didn't pan out in toronto but dude did make some shrewd moved that paid off yeasr later
How has it been a success?
They had the three worst consecutive a season in history
One of their top picks hasn't played a game
Okafor and Noel can't play together

Your TSC World Champion
Woj never liked hinkie dude been shytting on him since the process came out snd hinkje only does interviews with guys like zach lowe. Woj might have a bias here even if this could be true

they have money to splurge on FAs and a excellent crop of young talent.
I'd think for a team that was in that limbo area, to get to where they are, stock talent and cut payroll like they did that is a pretty good turnaround.
There only problem in my opinion is really the coach.
If they get Simmons they would be the perfect payoff to their strategy
@Reinscarf
look at everyone hating on bryan colangelo like he didn't build this current raptors core.
exactly
dude hired masai when masai was nothing
he drafted derozan and people laughed at the pick when he did
he traded for lowry when everyone said he was a selfish pg who was on 2 teams and would never be a starter
he drafted jonas and took flack because he didn't come over until a year later
he hired casey as a head coach even though people said he doesnt have what it takes to be a winner
all they bring up is bargnani but hell in that draft out of the top ten picks, only aldridge, foye and rudy gay are still in the nba along with bargnani
could have easily ended up with morrison, tyrus thomas, shelden williams, patrick o'ybrant, mouhamed sene

Cap space is less of a factor with the cap going up though
Everyone gonna have cap space
Henry Orbit
Finesser
Ferry? So we know Embiid is getting traded in the offseason
I'm sure Colangelo is in love with Saric too
What young talent?
Brett brown hasn't shown any indications he's an above average coach
Hinkie ruined relationships with agents by treating players like they were on his fantasy team
And everybody has cap space this season so why would anybody go to Philly over all these other opportunities?
Sam Hickie 
That's my only concern as well. Now's the perfect time to turn things around in Philly- the question is- would Hinkie continue to tank even more years if he remains the GM? Like he has the tanking vision down pat but does he have the non-tanking GM skills to move forward and actually improve and build a competitive team? Hinkie might be getting a raw deal but the Sixers would probably have to bring in a new guy to change the synergy and makeup of the team something like to fight a 'Newton's Law' type scenario.. 'something that's in motion tends to stay in motion'.

Laughing at you n*ggaz like “ha ha ha”
they get Ingram or Simmons this draft and his process actually worked
No it won't. Up until yesterday the Sixers were on one of the worst three year runs in NBA history. Drafting another highly touted prospect means nothing if the player development is shyt and the team has a losing culture
