More so than in any other professional league, in the NBA, it’s extremely important to not be mediocre. To constantly be the seventh or eighth or ninth best team in your conference is useless. You aren’t good enough to win a championship and aren’t bad enough to get a top player in the draft. As much as it suck to be the Sixers, “Trust The Process”. Sam Hinkie’s process may have taken too long, but the assets the Sixers have acquired are finally going to add up.
After years of slightly better than mediocrity, the Bulls have decided to blow it all up.
