The Philadelphia 76ers are not a very good basketball team. There probably isn’t going to be a lot of controversy over that statement. That they aren’t that far from being one probably is controversial.
The Sixers started their offseason before the season ended when they hired Jerry Colangelo to advise management. In layman’s terms, that means he was brought on board to drive a stake through the heart of #TrustTheProcess.
“The Process” was the idea of being bad by design to accrue high draft picks, mine for gold in passed-over prospects and then, when the time was right, spend money in free agency to complement the young stars.
