This morning a few of the scribes over at Philadunkia took a stab at naming who they think might make a good GM option for the 76ers this summer.
Many feel that Tony DiLeo is not the man for the job, leaving us to ponder other options. Check out the full rundown here, while my excerpt, suggesting that the Sixers look at one of the Suns former general managers, is quoted below.
"This
summer the Sixers could follow in the Phoenix footsteps and make one of the
Suns’ former GM’s their own.
Rumors are circulating that Bryan Colangelo, the man who built the mid-2000’s Suns, may be out of the
Raptors front office this summer. Aside from his success with the Suns, Colangelo
was named 2007 NBA Executive of the Year with Toronto, and was able to make
moves to improve the franchise going forward, including trading for Rudy Gay
this past season. Colangelo’s basketball IQ and ability to pair players
together would be extremely beneficial to the 76ers, as the organizations
owners are not known for their basketball knowledge.
If Colangelo is unavailable
then his successor with the Suns, Steve Kerr, would be an alternative option.
Kerr, who continued Colangelo’s run of success with the Suns, showed during his
brief stint as GM that he was unafraid to make the big, albeit questionable,
moves. He, like Colangelo, has a high level of basketball intelligence and may
be able to help fortify the franchise."
