PHOENIX – Sam Hinkie has made his share of mistakes as the 76ers general manager. He admitted it.
That's not to say Hinkie isn't proud of his coaching hires and some player acquisitions.
"I think our record speaks kindly to all that," he said. "But I think there are other things we could have handled differently."
Perhaps the biggest blunder was his refusal to address the media after Jahlil Okafor's string of off-the-court incidents became public. Another major misstep was not taking advantage of the expertise of Lance Williams, the Sixers head of security. And a third glaring error has been his dealings with agents.
