Count me as being a Sam Hinkie defender but I can give credit Colangelo who deserves it after acquiring the first overall pick in Thursday’s NBA draft.
I wasn’t sure that it was even possible to get this pick considering who the Sixers had to negotiate with to get it.
The Boston Celtics are a tough team to trade with but it happened and now we get our guy.
This is what Hinkie would have wanted
Colangelo did what “The Process” was meant to do, which was to acquire assets to eventually turn them in for the right piece.
