[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;15018818]Hes been done since his should have been 6th man of the year :rockon:

He's not just done, he's well done and left on the stove to get cold. But he's likely a good locker room mentor.
[QUOTE=ImKobe;15018861]Probably because DFS is not staying with the Lakers, so they have the MLE regardless of what James does.
Him declining it and not taking a 1 + 1 probably means that he's seriously considering retirement. I doubt he's thinking of going anywhere else at this point in his career. I could see MAYBE him going back to Cleveland for his last year so he can retire as a Cav.[/QUOTE]
That would require not only a buyout. It would also require the Cavs to drop below the 2nd apron since they can't sign him once he's bought out.
[QUOTE=GOBB;15018870]NBA and some fans gave Sixers Sam Hinkie shyt for tanking. And Utah is doing it right in front of our eyes. In Hinkie I will always trust.[/QUOTE]
Many teams tank every year and have for a long time. Ainge built two champions doing it. Okc are champs now after doing it

Hinkie drafted like an idiot. Right intention, wrong execution.

No he didn’t. He drafted solid. Took BPA every time.

Of course but where was this logic when Sixers did it? Everyone was up in arms, getting on their soap box talking integrity of the league blah blah blah. The nba forced Hinkie out by having the Colangelos take over. And they ruined things. Go figure.

Wouldnt blame it all on colangelo when mr. Glass is all they have to show for it

Noel, Okafor, and MCW were busts and not given any proper development program. That was another knock on him. Draft and/or acquire players and if they aren't an immediate hit, trade them off. Why avoid having any veterans who can actually teach and mentor these guys? :confusedshrug:
He operated like someone who was a gambler rather than a tactician executing a plan over a specific timeline.

You forgot fultz. That was certainly a difference there. You need a mix of vets and kids. Easier to lose with kids but no one to show them the way

He drafted Fultz and gave it up to Danny Ainge. He traded Jerami Grant and Noel. He had his wife created twitter accounts bashing players and front office folks (Hinkie was one). He was a stooge. Embiid even with all his injuries has done more for the Sixers than him. F*ck him, should’ve left Hinkie alone to continue his process. Whether it worked or failed

He didn’t draft Fultz

MCW was a bust? He won ROY and for Sixers a lottery pick via trade. Which was Mikel Bridges. But for some odd reason we traded Bridges.
Noel was a stiff
Okafor was BPA. Hindsight yeah he ended up a bust. At the time? It was the BPA. Not mad at it. Just mad he got hurt where Sixers couldn’t take advantage of his value and flip him.
Hinkie did solid drafting.

Okafor bpa if it was 1990. Like mcw and fultz they didnt have modern games. Noel fit todays game more than them. Turning down all that cash though! :roll:
