‘Tanking to the Top’ by Yaron Weitzman offers unprecedented look at Sixers’ Process

The Philadelphia 76ers, led by general manager Sam Hinkie, embarked on a rebuilding project unlike the NBA had ever seen. Of course, teams tanked in the past, but no one did it quite like the Sixers.

Bleacher Report’s Yaron Weitzman makes his debut with “Tanking to the Top: The Philadelphia 76ers and the Most Audacious Process in the History of Professional Sports” (pre-order).

The book provides an in-depth look at the intrepid plan by Hinkie and the Sixers to build a winner by being a loser. Weitzman joins the Knicks State of Mind Podcast to talk about why he chose the infamous Philly “Process” for his first book and much, much more.
