Joined by Kyle Neubeck of Liberty Ballers to discuss the Philadelphia 76ers
This past Thursday James Plowright and I were joined by Kyle Neubeck of Liberty Ballers to discuss a number of topics related to the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers are in the midst of a long-term rebuilding project, with general manager Sam Hinkie banking on a several current and future first round lottery selections to build a foundation for the future. Hinkie’s methods haven’t come without criticism from many across the league, who view the team’s rebuild as Exhibit A as to why the NBA should change its lottery process. Kyle, along with many Sixers fans, view the rebuild as a refreshing change from the patchwork process the team took to stay relevant but remaining short of contention.
Philadelphia’s rebuilding project is just one of many topics we got to, with many surrounding the team’s draft selections this past summer. There’s also more discussion about Byron Mullens than any of us anticipated, but when three people get in a podcast together who have all seen Air Mullens brick a few too many 3-pointers, the topic was unavoidable.
Below are the list of topics with their estimated time stamps. We had a good time talking with Kyle, who knows his stuff and offers strong counter-points to all those hating on Hinkie. As always, subscribe on iTunes, follow us on Podbean, and thank you for listening.
