I'm honestly disgusted with the team right now. For Bryan? **** you Jerry

The ONLY thing that sucks about this, is having Jerry's son forced upon us. Even the people who wanted Hinkie gone did not want this scenario.

I now hope everything goes wrong for the Sixers in the lottery and if the Sixers get screwed I am going to rejoice that they got exactly what was coming to them.

This is devastating.

I can't ever not be a Sixer fan, but this is extremely demoralizing.

If Bryan Collangelo is really going to come in I'm going to puke.

I'm done with them. Don't feel like sticking around to see them trading a 1st for Jose Calderon and maxing out Eric Gordon.

They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

We were this close to landing the plane and the organization gets cold feet now...are you kidding me? If we get Bryan Colangelo I will literally give up on this team. Never have I abhorred a man in this organization than i do Jerry Colangelo. That old geezer ruined 3 years of patience.

Awful news. Replacing Sam Hinkie before he got a chance to realize his plan was beyond stupid. Strange he stepped down right after the Lowe podcast he gave no indication that it was happening.

Byran was the one of the worst GM's in the league prior to his firing in Toronto. Hiring him means signing mediocre talent to big money. Noone knows how to eat through cap space faster then this guy.

Never thought I'd say this, but **** this team. I quit and hope there's a boycott to never go to any of their games again.
