The Sixers wanted somebody who wouldn't require the final say. EB has been floating around the Sixers org as a player/coach, GM of their G-League team, and now [I make it] semi-figurehead GM of the big club.

How is any free agent going to trust Brand after the way he left the Clippers?

Who knows what he's been doing. Maybe he worked his way up the organization.

Brent Barry was hired as VP of basketball operations for the Spurs too. I don't think he has any front office experience but probably knows the game well.

He wants to go to Clippers, Nets or Knicks.

Would the Clippers give him a max?

The dedicated Jimmy Butler thread should provide better insight into answering your question.

Is Dunleavy Sr. angling for a future job with the 76ers now?

Wait has Cuban been implicated in perpetrating any of the sexual harassment or mainly being negligent and allowing it to go on?

If the latter, that’s a big difference from Trump, who has almost two dozen accusers.

Also doubt Trump would donate a cent and show contrition.

Nothing provable to show contrition about.

As for Cuban, your call. I'm just saying he's a sexist pig no more, no less, and he's going to buy his way out of this.
