2015 Sixers Season Thread

[ice grillin you]

also there are 3 big 5 dudes on the nugs...jaqueer, foye and ed pickeney is an assistant

rollie massiminos kid is on the staff too

[MDS]

I know you wouldn't but could you have not gone today and gotten away with it...or do you check in as you are going into the arena and the paper gets notified that they used a credential for this game

i likely could

the sixers are a joke organization from top to bottom and their pr staff would unlikely catch that i never picked up my credential yet wrote a full game with quotes and shtein

a ton of this kind of work can be done like that...the business in many ways still operates like the early days when games werent on tv. this is why i focus on high school, generally. theres always going to be a demand for hs sports coverage and those games are never going on tv.

[ice grillin you]

this would be one of their better losses.....entertaining game....played well....zesty in the last two minutes

[ice grillin you]

garbage covey three at the buzzer otherwise 0 fg last three and a half minutes of game

[MDS]

poor brett brown

he was so sunny and cheerful for the pregame jawn....afterwards he was beaten. but i saw the spin doctor and hinkie happily chillin after the game so who cares about loss #20

Huge hire

Jerry Colangelo as chairman of basketball ops and special advisor

[phattymatty]

love it. assuming hinkie still has final on everything say but that's a nice signing.

[BigEd76]

He's basically what Gillick was to Amaro.  Sounds like ownership wants to speed up this rebuilding shtein and Colangelo has a better reputation with agents than Hink does

[ice grillin you]

its hilarious to me that people think the sixers are going to be some destination team because fossil coangelo works for them

I suspect hes more there for player evaluation...hinkie has a done a great job of acquiring assets but now with this upcoming draft and the amount of picks they may have they want another set of basketball eyes that are part of the old school rather than the analytical new school

what people? was't this announced like 17 minutes ago?

all the beat writers and many national writers are saying it....that's where easy got it...harris said at the presser that they want the process to speed up....so everyone jumped to the conclusion that hes there to get free agents to come to the team

[PhillyPhreak54]

But he does have a good relationship with players and agents no?

[ice grillin you]

But he does have a good relationship with players and agents no?

who knows hes 76 and hasn't done shtein for a while....im sure its not a bad relationship....but at no point is he going to be a factor in the sixers getting or not getting a free agent...he probably wont even be with the sixers when they are ready to attract big name guys

[phattymatty]

yeah that's ridiculous.

i like it though, another set of eyes can't hurt and he's built teams before.

[hbionic]

When you guys are done with him, can you send him over to the Lakers?
