Sources Expect Bryan Colangelo To Lose Job With 76ers

[RealGM Wiretap]

The Philadelphia 76ers are expected to soon conclude their investigation into social media allegations against Bryan Colangelo.

Some league sources expect Colangelo to lose his job as president of basketball operations.

A league source said Colangelo was visibly shaken when the report broke while he was attending a workout in Los Angeles.

Colangelo has missed predraft workouts on Wednesday and Thursday.

“The only way that he’ll get out of it is if he comes with evidence that somebody set him up,” said a league executive, speaking on condition of anonymity. “If it is out there where they can’t prove either way, I don’t think he’ll keep his job. And if there’s involvement with a family member, it doesn’t look like he has a chance either.”

The start of the NBA Finals could have played a factor in Philadelphia's timetable, according to sources. The league did not want the controversy to further distract from Game 1.

Bring back the Hinkster !!!

Sack this clown. Free Hinkie!

[GordanFreeman]

Part of me wishes that he keeps his job, kills it as a GM, brings a few 'ships to Philli and **** on the ringer using his burner accounts.

Actually a blessing if this happens. Should of been fired after the Fultz debacle.

NONE CAN DENY THE RETURN OF THE HINKIE. COME ON. THE HINKIE.

Bryan Colangelo has had the easiest Executive position in all of the NBA - was gifted a fully assembled roster on a silver platter along with a plethora of future draft picks, cap space and a great coach.

Mind boggling that someone could be so careless and so ungrateful for a once in a lifetime cushy sports opportunity.

Instinct says he’s guilty. If I was innocent I’d go on a full scale press assault, not be silent.

[Mwd1981]

This is career ending. GM’s get paid millions. An innocent man would defend his reputation tooth and nail.

[Hipster Doofus]

Danny Ainge and the entire Celtics organization are pissed at this news.

[WargamesX]

Bring back the Hinkster !!!

Rehire Hinkie!

Nor would you look visibly shaken when the story broke. An innocent person would look confused, shocked or angry that such preposterous allegations were made against them...

School teachers just got some free material over the last week for speaking to students about social media and the consequences of your digital actions. First Roseanne, now Colangelo. I think they are good examples of what not to do on social media and they also show how severe the consequences can be.

What if it's his children or pets?

I wonder if Trump does this.
