Why does Sam Hinkie still have a job?

[jwinfield]

And look at where the Jazz are compared to the Sixers

Since 2011 which team is closer to going back?



And which team is in the harder conference?


And which team is in fukking Utah?

The Jazz' best player, Gordon Hayward, is a lotto pick from 2010.

They traded their star player for the pick that became Favors in 2010.

Alec Burks is a lotto pick from 2011.

Save for Gobert, who was a late first rounder, the picks people on here bash Philly for collecting, their best players have been playing since 2010-11.

they traded their best player and reigning ROY for nothing last year. they should be better than the NBDL squad they're putting out there.

And Utah traded a young big man putting up 14/8 in 27mpg for Kendrick fukking Perkins.

It's the most blatant and disgusting tanking in sports history.

Philadelphia fans should be embarassed... That's a supposedly big market sports team putting up with this and not saying a damn thing... In NY, Boston, or LA hinkie would have been assassinated

Just like Ainge was assassinated when they were tanking for Oden/Durant and Ryan Gomes admitted to tanking.

The Celtics were up 18 one game, benched the starters and finished with a lineup of Allan Ray, Leon Powe, Sebastian Telfair, Ryan Gomes and Gerald Green.

Or when the C's tanked for Duncan?

The celtics were at least putting out a competitive lineup full of young players that were playing their asses off every night that the fans could get behind. That Celtic team was better than any of these philly teams and that was for 4 months, not 3 years like Philly so far going on a fourth

So if Okafor and Noel start winning too many games are they going to trade one of them like they did MCW? Can't put the tank in danger. Don't stop until you get the #1 pick.

The Sixers won 34 games 3 years ago and were the 9th seed.

They were 12-42 when they traded MCW, who was shooting 38% and averaging 4TO a game.

And if Okafor and Noel are winning "too many" games, wouldn't that mean that Hinkie made a great decision picking Okafor?

They were ranked 13th defensively but 30th offensively. Adding a guy with Okafor's skillset, resulting in more wins, means he's doing his thing offensively which means Hinkie made a great decision, no?

And if Embiid is still injury prone, doesn't matter, you're set up front.

If he's healthy and playing well, you flip him to fill other needs.

No they didn't

 

[jwinfield]

No they didn't

I meant 3 years ago.

The C's had Paul Pierce and Al Jefferson in 06-07 and won 24 games while using Allan Ray to close out games.

 

[jwinfield]

What should the Sixers have done to make the anti-tankers happy?

Resign Hawes and Turner and "compete" for the 8th seed every year? Hope that one of the 15th-16th picks turns into a star?

Philly will be very good in 2-3 years

[MikelArteta]

After that 3 mill fine I'm surprised he's not axed

 

[Flash Thunderton]

"Life aint a track meet, its a marathon"

I give it 4

 

[gho3st]

Trading MCW was just an awful, awful move. That's when he officially lost me. He has further continued to lose me by stockpiling big men who really don't have much of a trade value. He's an awful GM ... couldn't have success in 2K Dynasty mode.

And he'll stunt their growth if he doesn't trade 2 of them

 

[AAKing23]

Will ya'll nikkas get off our dikks Never seen a team face so much backlash for 2 years of losing

 

[triplehate]

The downside of the information age regarding sports is the fake interest we have for others fans teams.

People are shytting on the Sixers for stocking lotto picks, but

TWolves have 6 recent lotto picks, including the last 3 #1 overall selections

Jazz have 6 recent lotto picks, including some from 2010.

shyt on Philly for trading MCW but big up the Jazz who traded a recent #3 pick for Kendrick Perkins a few months ago and tried to trade Trey Burke during the draft and are apparently looking at moving Favors.
