Sam hinkie appreciation thread

[WMG the 2nd]

Damn shame how they crucified that man when his method is about to prove worthwhile in a year

 

[DLo]

NBA couldn't let tanking become the norm. They forced Hinkie out

 

[dreskii]

HINKIE DIED FOR OUR WINS *appreciates*

 

[KOBE]

Bryan has added nothing to the team and will get all the credit. fukk him and his father.

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Now seeing his plan come together, I was wrong about him. Kudos to Hinke.

@houston911 was the only other poster who understood what Hinkie was doing, they forced a dude out of the GM spot that got the Kings to trade them Stauskas and two first round picks for some Euro prospects who will probably never come over.

The Sixers get the Kings unprotected 2019 draft pick, and they get the right to swap picks with them this year.

Right the Colangelo's are already getting credit for just being there and I still see some fans complain about the process

Plenty of us knew what he was doing. Bottoming out to rebuild and acquire stars from the draft. He just got unlucky in the lottery is all.

so the process was to go 15 - 26...

or...?

It's a little late for that.

They already won 5 more games than last year's squad and won 8 of their last 10 and still aren't at full strength

 

[NatiboyB]

Trust the process the NBA forced him out

But this isn't the season to get all of these wins especially with the Lakers imploding try to finish with a worst record than them having 2 top 10 picks in this draft would be clutch.

 

[holidayinn21]

Keep tanking til you luck up on a franchise player.

Some Process.

Not to mention only 4.5 games out of the final playoff spot in the East

Chances of acquiring a superstar through the draft increases every time you get a top 3 pick. He got a lot of top 3 picks. Embiid getting hurt and falling to them at 3 was indeed lucky, wouldn't have come down to luck had he not gotten hurt and they gotten the first pick though.

If he got Towns instead of Okafor they would be golden.
