Spencer Hawes will be spreading joy in an uber-crowded front court for the Cavs. Sam Hinkie's magical bounty? Two second-round picks. Worth the wait? Didn't many of you all ask for better tanking a few weeks ago. What Might Have Been. Hinkie just picked up two more 2nd round picks and Eric Maynor in a deal that sends Andre Miller to WAS. Don't know any further details. Will it Work as Designed? I've said Brookyln was in trouble ever since they made the trades for Pierce and Garnett. Such a stupid mov...

Tanking Dollars Help Pay for the Sixers tank. In Brian's temporary absence, I'm putting up this article to start a new discussion thread, as things bog down a bit on some browsers after 500 comments. In the blogs honor, I'll steer away from my typical pro-Hinkie apologetic blather and try and post something a bit more cutting. More October 2014 entries.

Failures, to Varying Degrees. Phoenix and Philadelphia both wanted to shove a horrible season of basketball down their fans' throats this year in the hope they'd be able to land a top pick in this summer's stacked draft. Phoenix blew their chances early and will probably have to fight and claw to hold on to the 7 or 8 seed in the West. The Sixers, well, they're still in the process of throwing away a golden opportunity. Lay an Egg in the Garden. Let 'em Have It. Big Al Leading the Way. Your Charlotte Bob...

A Fleeting Moment of Importance. I've been down on the Embiid pick since the beginning, and while I agree this article is a lot of noise, I think it does tell me that Hinkie should have done more due diligence.

Sterling's Methods Live On In Philly. One man has been exposed as a vile human being for his hateful comments and business practices as a slumlord. Another has been lauded for his forward-thinking management and shrewd business decisions. Donald Sterling is a pariah, and rightfully so. Josh Harris is heading in that direction in some circles, and worshipped in others. One thing the two men have in common is the path on which they took their franchises. More November 2014 entries.

Two More Years.Two More Years. With the number three pick, the Sixers selected Joel Embiid. Embiid would've gone #1 had he not broken a bone in his foot during (or prior to) limited workouts for the draft. He was clearly the most talented guy left at number three, he's also most likely not going to play at all this season. This is nonsense. I didn't say Noel was going to be as good as Jordan was projected to be. I said he was a good comp. Jordan has far exceeded what he was projected to. Can Make a Big S...

So Long, Thad. Good luck" this season to 'traveling salesmen' Willie Green (Magic), Jameer Nelson (Mavs) and John Salmons (Pelicans)! Hehe i feel exactly the same tk. I've been away for a while (summer vacation and whatnot) but after getting back and reading all kinds of posts, i still feel like you, me and only. More August 2014 entries.

Not Much Can Go Wrong. As long as New Orleans doesn't leapfrog their way into a top three pick and the Sixers don't fall out of the top three, tomorrow night's lottery won't be a disaster. Brian, generally speaking, on a scale of 1-10 what's your level of confidence in the Sixers front office that they will come away with two (or more) building blocks for this team next week?

Might Be A Starter. With the trade-deadline departures, Nerlens Noel was basically the last man standing on this roster of offcasts, retreads and misfits. In his elevated role (elevated equals a usage rate of about 19%), Noel has upped his offensive game to the point where he might not be a huge detriment on that end of the floor.
