You THINK? He’s a small white guy, and your blog somehow got warped into the Gawkerverse, so of course you’d gasp at the small white man’s contract before the....wait, is Evan Turner white?

How so? They were a mediocre team who traded their best player for Andrew Bynum. That wasn’t Hinkie’s decision, and it’s why the rebuild was necessary.

Okay? They were much worse off before “Hinkie’s business babble”

....because you have been arguing about Sixers players’ potential. Do you not remember?

Then perhaps you need to learn the definition of “potential”

You didn’t ask whether they showed the ability in the pros. You asked whether they showed the ability.

I think you're confused. The goal was not to have a championship roster three years into a 5-7 year plan

Are you seriously arguing that the 2013 Sixers, who finished with 34 wins BEFORE trading their best players for Andrew Bynum, was “quality”? And I’m the one with Stockholm Syndrome.

Five lottery players, three of whom are top-3 picks, with multiple high draft picks from other more shitty teams coming soon, is the answer to your clueless question.

Ahh, the Stockholm Syndrome joke, which is completely oblivious to the fact that Sixers fans had wanted to blow up the team years BEFORE Hinkie was ever hired.

To answer your final question: the reason why the Sixers have been bad is that the previous GM traded away Iguodala and Vucevic for Andrew Bynum.

Because you’re a spoiled Yankees fan. Nobody gives a shit about your perspective on championships.

LOL at opportunity costs. They surely would have taken the Cavs to 7 games if they never traded MCW

It’s better than calling it “dick and balls”

Unless they make a trade, Simmons will have four recent lottery players as teammates

The Sixers had more than a 50% chance of winning at least one of the last 3 lotteries

Nobody ever thought Burneko was smart
