It was all the colangelos, just like the Sam Hinkie video game on the ringer. Too many colangelos like whack a mole

:science: It's an Italian name so I think the plural would be Colangeli.

Troppi Colangeli!

I feel like the 76ers had the oddest story of the season going with Markelle Fultz, then the Kawhi Leonard estrangement took the freak show spotlight away so the Sixers are responding with a chaos dunk.

Most of his Disqus comments seem to be on articles from "The Sixers Sense". I think I also noticed the same thing in the tweets.

The Sixers Sense is the worst. It makes Liberty Ballers look like the NY Times. I follow every possible Sixers RSS feed (old skool) except that one. I haven't been back in a while, but it had articles that seemed to have been written by 6th graders. They were just long versions of bad Disqus comments. I'm appalled that this might be where the Colangelos chose to fight their twitter battles.

This is extra funny now that Ben Simmons has dropped Tinashe for Kendall Jenner.

(funny because even with their inside info, the Colangelos' takes were poo poo)

The goal is to make the Sixers better, not to do right by Bryan Colangelo. He is tainted and must go.

And its being announced at 2. They cant fire him before that because of this exactly reason. They had a scheduled work out today with draft prospects, cancelling it would directly impede their entire draft process. I imagine that workout is the exact reason they are announcing at 2.

When the scandal came out, he left workouts he was attending on the west coast and missed two days he had planned on attending, so I agree with Euphronius that his attendance at a workout today is not a good sign.

Colangelo was the JAG of GMs

Worst move was Bayless. Best move was some obvious re-signings and JJ. Overall, he was extremely mediocre

Yeah, they will most likely need to give away their second 1st round draft pick this year to get rid of Bayless.

Reddick was a good signing, but unless massively overpaying him this past season induces him to take a longer term deal at a much lower salary, then it was a just an expensive one year rental in a year with no real championship aspirations.

When he traded Noel he got them to add on a conditional first round pick that had no chance of ever being realized, insulting the intelligence of the fans I guess because he thought it would make him look better?

Picking Simmons was a no-brainer that anyone would have done.

I give him credit for getting the injury clauses in Embiid's max deal and front loading the Covington contract so his subsequent years are reasonable.

But in the end, the appraisal of his tenure will be tied to the Fultz/Tatum trade.
