Philadelphia has hired Rod Thorn to take over as team president, league sources tell Y! Ed Stefanski will stay on as GM.

Looks like the Russian rubbed him the wrong way.

Can't see that without actually seeing Outlaw play for us first. The guy has never had this opportunity before.

Mikhail you need to post more on the 4 way team deal thread. I need reinforcements.

Ehh I'm not too worried...Thorn and Stefanski weren't that great of a combo in NJ. I do wish Thorn the best though. But the Sixers will probably become mediocre very soon if these two working together with the Nets is any indicator. Thorn is great but Stefanski isn't really a great GM.

Mikhail will be a reinforcement for us, not you. And ugh...Thorn to Philly. Now watch him pull a "Jason Kidd" out of his rabbit-hat and turn the Sixers into a contender.

I guaranty he turns it into gold. Probably how he got the job. Promising to get some schmuck gm to take on brand. Somehow i think he has Kings number on speed dial.lol

I hope Thorn only pissed off the fact that Prokhorov try to reduce his salary from 5.5 mil$ to 4mil$ and leaved and not that he saw dark clouds over Nets with Prokhorov....

What a peace of ****. He probably didnt even have to get a new nursing home. Good luck to the Sixers, Stefanski/Thorn combo, you gonna need a lot of it.

It sucks that he left but I guess I'm over it now. I'm more interested in seeing what these new faces can do for us.

I hope he does well.The Russian must have really tried to jerk him around.
