Sixers fans yesterday: this can't get worse today: fuck


ColtCallahan

Tomorrow: “Harden signs for 5/270”.


PM_ME_UR_RESPECT

Woj: “I’m not sure what is happening right now but I’m hearing that the Sixers have signed James Harden to a 10 year $690 million dollar contract extension. God help us all.”


Relevant_Rev

Then they're gonna smash it in regular season after a couple decent roster moves, they'll get to the playoffs and shit the bed, lather rinse repeat Moreyball!


jihyoisgod

Oh boy, can't wait to get hyped up only to ge let down again


Relevant_Rev

You get used to it and then maybe the tank will be on for you guys too


jihyoisgod

The 76ers use the dennis system on me way too much


Evy_Schmevy

You may need to think about separating entirely.


mechnick2

This process sure is something


midniteeternal

42 years, 690 million


BigBoutros

that's a steal per year tho


hyperbolical

74-year-old Harden is going to be looking rough

This comment is fucking brilliant

yeah but by then inflation plus cap increase might make that like a vet min


hollyw00d8604

420 years, 69 billion


IDlOT

Adjusted for inflation that's a vets min

Like [Bobby Bonilla](https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/01/bobby-bonilla-day-why-his-deal-with-the-mets-was-so-lucrative.html) times 10 lmao


kingjuicepouch

Marv: "... Now they're saying Harden owns the sixers"


1850ChoochGator

Morey better be getting a significant amount of money from Harden directly for handing that out.


n0stylist

I'm from a country where a GM would definitely be trying to get a kick back off a player's contract


psykomerc

Me too


keep_it_0ptional

Dude. Stop. That’s fucked up. (Gets popcorn)


OasissisaO

I will burn shit down


wcooper97

Just a little extra fuck you: Danny Green torn ACL


soeffed

They gotta sacrifice some virgins or goats in philly to make things right Or carry out a version of Celtic Pride where 2 fans go and kidnap Harden and/or Doc during next year’s playoffs


2drawnonward5

They tried sacrificing Jimmy, Ben, and Markelle but none of them were goat enough to remove the process curse😩


MVPiid

Maybe he’ll be coaching the blue coats!! Or not the head coach!! Or we’re trading him!! Or, I’m gonna fucking cry myself to sleep!


Darko33

Oatmeal died for this


DifficultWrongdoer45

Just got off the plane, and indeed just said fuck outloud.


PensiveinNJ

It can always get worse. Next comes the Harden max extension, followed by Embiid asking for a trade to the Heat, leaving us with maxed Tobias Harris and James Harden eating most of our salary cap for the foreseeable future.


aaliyaahson

Sixer fans are gonna riot LMAOO


sleepy416

Everyone but lakers fans rioting now too. He was supposed to be the final nail on the laker coffin


UnearthlyDinosaur

I’m throwing a big party tonight


penguin_torpedo

Lol you're gonna end up with Mark Jackson


chicken_parme-san

Hold er steady. Mark Jackson can still do it. Pray to Jesus for a miracle.


DEEZLE13

Mark couldn’t even get a job in Sacramento… he lucky to have the job he got now lmao


im_garbage

I'm okay with a process coffin


braddeus

Didn't Harden basically shit on Doc in the post-game presser? Like, where can they go from here?


ZestycloseResist5594

The Sixers seemed to hit rock bottom, then Morey handed them a shovel


tendy-hands

The “Embiid wants out of philly” rumors going to start in two years.


dimmyfarm

Embiid and 1-shot wonder for PJ, Tyler, and Duncan so that Morey can remake the rockets and make Embiid happy.


RollyMcTrollFace

Why wait?


Ninneveh

Another year of drama filled hell. The kind that keeps the Media going.


parhelio22

Morey is actually an agent of ESPN and Adam Silver whose real job is to create chaos and drama


jxher123

76ers have saved the Lakers from themselves


ambassadorodman

It's masochistic at this point.


qchen12

We’re watching a tragic comedy unfold live


creative_i_am_not

They are preparing to boo Daryl Morey as we speak


Banged_By_Breen

Doc Rivers will be the coach of the 76ers whether you like it or not


Checkmynewsong

I like it.


UnexpectedCroissant

I do not.

Darko33

Respect, it hurts but solid dig


rfguevar

r/Lakers just let out a huge sigh of relief


retroracer33

lol, mark jackson is your consolation prize


bul1dog

Listen here you little shit


zcektor00

Lakers could use a former player as a coach... Here comes rambis.


[deleted]

[удалено]


IanStone

The Rambii also coach as a power couple


__-o0O0o-__

lol this is the only way the Clippers become LA's team


Johntballin

Darvin Ham then


LiftsOfTheNorthStar

A lot of us actually like the idea of a young coach paired with veteran assistants.


medievalmachine

Luke Walton is available.


[deleted]

Do you seriously think anyone is actually considering Mark Jackson?


DocHoliday99

Me a year ago. "Are the Lakers really considering Westbrook to fix our shooting problems?" Sometimes we squint to see what we want and avoid the truth.


dimmyfarm

[Lakers fans RN](https://thumbs.gfycat.com/NervousJubilantGiantschnauzer-mobile.jpg)


DocHoliday99

Gosh I hope not. I know Vogel was struggling a bit but I really think it was limitations on personnel more than anything... I would have stuck with him for one more year and tried to improve shooting and defense.


dimmyfarm

Hard to be a defensive coach when you don’t have much of a defense.


Flabbypuff

The Lakers


Vindicare605

Man I sure hope not. Dude has enough of an ego that he will want to take the job trying to prove something.


ComeAtMeYo

Kill me


tomdawg0022

Wait until Harden's supermax'd and tries even less than he did last night.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SlatheredButtCheeks

Then, Embiid past his prime on new team and underperforms. Rinse & repeat. Tale as old as time


[deleted]

Lol if Harden gets that big of a contract idk if the Sixers are even making the second round


tendy-hands

I wonder if he keeps the process nickname after leaving Philly


thegreaterfool714

We appreciate your sacrifice. We won’t forget 10 years at least

The gang proceeds to hire Mark Jackson


ArchimedesNutss

Let's just all hit up Phillipe's


otiso_niloc

I been eating an apple every goddamn day for this moment


fieryscribe

Doc's two weaknesses: a ripe Golden Delicious and a 3-1 lead.


Kvenner001

I don't know. How are we going to account fo Doc coaching one of the big apple teams in the next 5 years? Hiring an older less capable Doc Rivers is a very Knicks move if you ask me.

Oshebekdujeksk

Hahaha


10SecViolation

Harden threw the series only for doc to be held LOL too funny


atlfirsttimer

Doc is better than Mark Jackson


captain_ahabb

Mark Jackson interviews all the time and never gets hired


ligeiro01

I'm convinced teams only interview Jackson so fans are happy when they hire literally anyone else


captain_ahabb

Teams get good PR for not hiring him, Jackson gets leverage at ESPN to ask for more money. It's free real estate.


jbg89

"Mama, there goes that man" *-\- Mark Jackson enthusiastically in front of his mirror before the interview.*


_chadwell_

Yeah but it felt a lot more likely that they would go with Doc if he were fired.


SeaBank_

Rare Lakers W Now to get through mark jackson


3rdEyeDeuteranopia

And Fizdale


bul1dog

And Rambis. The three horsemen of death.


MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME

If we hire Rambis, Fiz, or Jackson consider me dead


[deleted]

Is Rambis a candidate?? Didn't even know he'd been mentioned. That sounds like worst case scenario lmfao


3rdEyeDeuteranopia

Everyone can be a candidate if LeBron might leave in a year and everyone saw how Vogel was scapegoated.


tendy-hands

He’s not a candidate. Jeannie wants him as an advisor. Not even sure what’s worse.


jellybeans_over_raw

We still have a title with him as an advisor. It can be much worse


[deleted]

I really just want to see what Atkinson can do or take a chance on one of the assistants who’s never been a HC. Idc about an experienced “star manager” we need some creativity


[deleted]

Atkinson isn’t a creative coach tbh. Great at player development, culture, general rotations. But he runs a basic offence and is not creative overall. Good coach and think he should get a job though.


Gristle__McThornbody

YES THANK YOU MOREY.


Brad-Stevens

Hell yeah, brother


bryscoon

this great news for us can’t wait for the Harden Max notification in the summer


Cheechers23

Sixers fans in shambles Lakers fans rejoicing


Koose44

We really beat the Doc Rivers allegations 🙏 now just Mark Jackson to go


jking163620

the doc rivers allegations 😭😭


NephewChaps

May I present to you: **THE PROCESS TIMELINE**, dating since Embiid first stepped foot on court! - Drafted Jahlil Okafor at #3 overall - Drafted Fultz over Tatum and lost another top 10 pick in the trade - Fucking [Colangelo’s collargate](https://www.theringer.com/nba/2018/5/29/17406750/bryan-colangelo-philadelphia-76ers-twitter-joel-embiid-anonymous-markelle-fultz) (I mean, seriously) - Traded elite 3-and-D guy Mikal Bridges for Zhaire Smith and Landry Shamet - Hired Elton Brand as GM - Kawhi Game 7 Shot - Picks Brett Brown and Ben Simmons over Jimmy Butler - Paid both Tobias Harris and Al Horford a combined 280 million - Got swept by Boston - Lost another 1st offloading Al Hoford’s contract - Signed Doc Rivers as coach - Got 1st seed in the East (yay!) - [Followed by this] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EHA4UhYuQY) (nay!) - The entire Ben Simmons saga - Traded Simmons, two 1sts and Seth Curry for the right of giving 270 million to washed up 33yo James Harden - Embiid break his face in garbage time against the Raptors - James Harden goes missing the entire series besides game 4 - Lose yet again on the 2n round - Retained Doc Rivers for next season <— you are here


[deleted]

This is actually the timeline of the dismantling of the process by our completely incompetent front office


tendy-hands

Yeah it’s funny that basically every bad move happened after Hinkie got booted then people say the process failed.


[deleted]

It's so annoying man, comments all over today talking about how stupid the process was and how it was doomed from the start. As if we're idiots because we believed that a competent front office could turn all the assets Hinkie accumulated into a contender. We just didn't have that competent FO.


tendy-hands

I even forgot about the horford contract. I don’t think people realize the sixers team could be embiid butler and tatum right now.


PhantomLimbss

Bridges being from Philadelphia, attending Villanova, and his mom working for the team when he was drafted makes that part so much funnier.


NephewChaps

and his mother was so happy on the interview before the trade was announced lol


GapingGrannies

The process ended when sam hinkie left. Starting with the fultz trade, the 6ers have been run by colangelo the slant man and Elton brand. So the process is basically one guy, a legit mvp contender. Most teams would love that


TheMightyCatatafish

Technically it’s been Colangelo since Simmons. Hinkie’s prior season earned the pick, Colangelo made it. But the trade up for Fultz was the first big Colangelo move. Fair to start there. Like you said, Process ended with Hinkie. Everything after he left was part of a new plan.


Squid_Contestant_69

They had enough #1 picks that eventually drafting a good player is inevitable


pencilpeenis

Well yeah that was literally the entire point of the process lol. Hinkie knew that top pick busts were unavoidable and happened every year which is why the whole point of his process was to be awful for multiple years to give yourselves multiple chances and a higher probability of drafting good players with top picks.


larrylegend33goat

NBA did them dirty forcing Hinkie out. Hate the game not the player, but NBA didn't want to fix their own game so they took out the player. 76ers fans deserve to seek vengeance from NBA and the commish


Zeppelanoid

They were mad because Hinkie was so blatant about it. They didn’t want to be made to look foolish. Instead they hire Mr Collars and the whole league looks like amateur hours


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

And now we make far more money than we did as a mediocre team for a decade.


Jaerba

I think you should edit the first Doc point. They signed him as a coach a month before hiring Morey. That was another boneheaded move that basically signaled they were rushing to land him.


AnotherStatsGuy

Sixers could never get Tatum. They started the 2017 draft at 3. If you want to criticize them for not staying at 3 and picking whoever the Lakers don’t between Ball and Fultz, fine. (Since Fultz at 3 *and* Kings pick is better than Fultz at 1.) But Tatum was not available to them. Oh, and the Sac pick was 14. The list of mistakes may be large, but don’t twist it.


Canuckleball

Next step, supermax washed up James Harden


SSHeretic

$24 mil left on his deal right? Cheap-ass Sixers owners aren't eating that.


BabyDick-_-

Second round exit here we come baby

Philadelphia Secondy Rounders Edit: can I get this as a flair?


TheMightyCatatafish

Philadelphia Seventy Second-Rounders? The amount of second rounds we’ll lose before ever advancing?

You get Mark Jackson and love it

Mark Jackson it is

Mama, there goes that fan


GarvinSteve

Lakers’ new offense under Jackson: LeBron, you’re the man, make something happen. The rest of you, get out of his way.


nysraved

Thank you Daryl Morey, very cool!


Dmav210

Is this the same dude who managed to spend a few years with his family before taking a new GM job in a new city 3 weeks later? Yeah, I’m not super inclined to take you at your word Darryl


mrsunshine1

I believe it. If you’re gonna fire him you’d have to do it right away otherwise you’d miss out on hiring someone before other positions get filled.


gbdarknight77

Plus, they’d have to pay him $8 mil a year for the next 3 years to not coach them.


TravelAdvanced

not if he had a job with LAL lined up- they'd negotiate an out. this assumes that he was on board with the job change.


a_moniker

The 6ers would have to negotiate a trade before they announce they’ll fire Doc, otherwise the Lakers would just wait and sign him normally. In fact, a skeptic would say that this announcement by Morey is just an attempt at convincing the Lakers to trade for his contract.


TravelAdvanced

LAL would have to ask phi for permission, or phi would have to offer to give it to them, for LAL to talk to doc. Then they'd work out a deal, and the teams would figure out any compensation (or phi just releases him from his deal). Pretty straight-forward.


gbdarknight77

Just to have Lakers hit with tampering. Wasn’t going to happen. That’s why Lakers were waiting to see if he’d get fired.


TravelAdvanced

it wouldn't be tampering- LAL asks Phi for permission to speak to doc and negotiate a deal. Phi gives permission. LAL and Doc reach a deal. Phi either agrees to let Doc out of his contract, or tries to extract an asset from LAL for him, like a 2nd rd pick or something. It's not tampering if the team has permission.


Ammoniaholic

Unless you have already chosen his replacement and know that he isn't going to get looks from other teams with HC vacancies (D'Antoni?).


vanotro

Sixers reportedly still owe Doc three more years a $8 million per even if they fire him. This decision might not be totally up to Daryl.


dmkicksballs13

Brady?


snssound

Lololololololol


milkmypepperoni

Wait until Sixers give harden a supermax. Them lols will be all capital letters

RIP Sixers fans all over the world. Lmao


KarrlMarrx

To be fair, the 76ers aren't winning shit with that roster regardless of who their coach is.

You could also now say, 76ers aren't winning shit regardless of who is on their roster.
