    Glad it was first ballot. I thought there were rumblings about it not being first ballot because of how his career ended a few years back.

    Hinke's out.

    sucks. colangelo's son will probably get the job.

    I'm bummed. Hinkie didn't make one bad move during his tenure. Overcame the disaster left behind by the Doug Collins and Ed Stafanski/Rod Thorne eras. Everything is so well set up for the future. But like I said, the colangelo thing was ominous from the get-go.

    Oh well -- go flyers (as the red wings score). I hate sports

    He was never gonna be the one to see this thing all the way through. It just wasn't realistic. This year is the year they try to turn it around, so it kind seems like he did what he was hired to do.

    could be. I don't think the sixers (sans Hinkie) are smart enough of an organization to think that far outside the box, but you def could be right.

    Definitely not excited about Colangelo's son taking over.

    Also wouldn't be surprised if brett brown is the next to go. If Mike D'Antoni gets the hc job I will really lose it

    I'm so happy for Allen not only a great scorer, with his dunks and cross over but for the greatest sports quote I can think of. *what we taking bout practice, talkin bout practice*. Something like that.

    He was spectacular when I watched him play on the court and football field at big Bethel High in Hampton VA. He was legendary down there and very well known in Hampton Roads area.

    Peace

    Found the 13 page resignation letter. Feels more like an obituary than anything else. RIP Hinkie and The Process. The hopes of a fan base died with today's resignation. This truly blows on all levels.

    record by trying to play a game I don’t understand just so I can go out a hero.”

    beat it Sam. thanks for 3 centers and assets and best of all thanks for pissing off every agent in the league so no draft players or free agents wanted to talk to you or play for Sixers.

    he is the best. sixers franchise is a bunch of morons. now we are stuck with nepotism and a GM who took andrea bargnani with the first overall pick.

    All of this really, really, really sucks

    Reading that letter makes you realize that nothing he did was done irrationally - everything he does/did was well thought out and had a very sound explanation.

    Now it's all going to A) be reaped by a bunch of dipshits so other dipshits can be like, "SEE IT DIDN'T WORK YOU IDIOTS THIS IS REAL BASKETBALL", or B ) be totally torn apart.

    Can't wait to trade away Saric's rights, Embiid, and one of our 1st round picks for Jeff Teague!
