Resignation so joins news studio. The sixers frontoffense shake up since. Bryan colangelo, and his father jerry steps down to be the advisor. Three years into the socalled process and still feels like a mess. It is a mess only because hinkie gave a 13page manifesto and it was really weird. It was really strange way to resign. A well respected guy, i dont know if he my biggest fear is that he will change the culture of what they do now. In other words, bring in some midlevel free agent types to make them more respectable, to make them a playoff contender. We went through that before, the 8th and 7th feed and why sam hinkie was brought in i hope he is not that type of executive. They need a change. You cant play these guys. The object of the whole thing was accumulate as many assets as you could. Once you again them, you move the pieces and hinkie was prepared to do that the big draft coming up with four more players coming in would he have traded a big man. Colangelo really has a readymade situation for him. Bryan colangelo, the twotime m. V. P. Executive with toronto and phoenix, he does not plan on altering the course but sounds like changes are coming. It is a transition to sustainable winning and thats what is important to establish here. And we will be pragmatic. We will be utilizing tools and resources. You can only have so many developing players on your roster at a time, so there may be some decision to defer some of those to future years. There may be a decision to package some of those things to aquire players that make sense and fit our strategy. Isnt that what you need in a sense . Thats key what he said, the transition the assets to get players that fit now. And i hope he does it that way. I hope he doesnt go aft i they have to mix it up, nerlens noel, jahlil okafor, it doesnt look like they can play together and you dont know about embiid right now. And you have to find out before you trade one. I dont know what will happen next we are, i think they have to let the process play out to see if embiid can play and have the guys be back up big men for each other. Are you more confident in colangelo or rather see hinkie see it through . I dont know enough about Bryan Colangelos reputation, he was out of work is what i know. And he has been brought in, never winning a championship. And i fear they are so antihinkie and the league came in and forced them to be antihinkie, colangelo now about go another route. And we saw the 13page rambling Resignation Letter by sam hinkie. What josh harris says today about why it did not work out with sam, even though he was disappointed. We all agreed that bringing in talent to make the organization better, to allow it to build stronger relationships in and around the league, to allow us to go to winning culture, bringing in someone to help lead the organization we all agreed those were good things. We couldnt agree on how to do that specifically and who the person was, so sam decided to leave. It sounds like sam wanted to wait out this process and the team, the front office at least, the owners, wanted to push it forward. Well first of all he is not the most inspiring leader. Josh harris, when i look at him talk and it freaks me out all the time that he is not a public speaker for me as successful as he is. But i think the lead, jeff, came in and said you cant do it this way. You are embarrassing the league and he got scared. He is a young owner and he got a little nervous about it, so he goes to colangelo who is an old veteran guy, an oldschool guy and doesnt like that type of situation. Once that happened the dominos fall the other way. The plan now, i am worried, is going to go the opposite way of what it was tailored to be. Could brown be the next guy out the door here . What Bryan Colangelo stayed is that he owes him a chance, and i believe he does. The scenario in my head if they start over we make the play for jay right now. If he is interested in the nba he would be interested in coaching the sixers. Flirting it before, and maybe this is the time you get him. I agree you have to give him a chance to turn it around. Jay wright did talk with the sixers in 2009 after the final four run and doesnt sound too interested. What he had to say about the possibility of going to the suns or anywhere else in the nba. I have not been offered the suns job and i am not going for the suns. And i want to stay at villanova. He says he is not going to the suns. He is not going to the suns. He is not going to the suns. Yeah is not going anywhere. The sixers, he can stay home. Maybe one day they will make the layoffs. The sixers home finale and brett brown he will stay in charge at least for now. He has a contract, of course. What a finish against milwaukee. And slamming in with 33 seconds left to give them the lead. And going o overtime and in o. T. Sixers can miss it. And smith misses the three and gets the rebound, and a second shot to win it where is Chris Jenkins with up need him . They lose. And they lost 70 of their 80 games this season. It has been absolutely ugly. Talking about a good thing. A good thing . The Philadelphia Flyers. The flyers are in the playoffs jeff. The Philadelphia Flyers open the playoffs thursday in washington against the best team in hockey. 7 00 faceoff. And game two there, too, and they are home for games three and four. They are playing the best week in hockey. Do they stand a chance . I think they do have a shot. They have trouble scoring. Washington, i think thats the only chance you have. Washington gets the sea legs in the playoff it will be really tough. But they have playoff demons that follow them, the ckacap p cap capitols. And giroux and similmondilar similar simmonds with the night off. And they won two in a row heading into the playoffs, perhaps momentum as they can hopefully game one thursday night in d. C. The Boston Bruins did them a favor making it easy for them this weekend, which is good. The flyers got a chance to rest them tonight. What a week in philadelphia. And still to come, the phillies on a winning streak as well headed into the home opener tomorrow. How will the weather hold up . Here is melissa magee.

Action news sports sunday sponsored by were back, so are the phillies on the verge of starting 05 the first time in 82 years. But the bullpen saves the day. Go figure, the worst selection of receivers in the majors so far. And sixplus scoreless innings in the last few days. And the Series Finale against the mets, Odubel Herrera the little bull looks like the bull. And the phills with the 30 lead. Oh, oh, bottom sixth. And the 2run shot off Jeremy Hellickson who is gone now, too. And the phills lead but to 1, the bullpen slams the door shut. And gomez saves the day in the ninth and phillies win 52, the second straight coming into the home opener tomorrow against san diego. Aaron nola on the found. And like the 1964 phillies who had a historical collapse, did you see Jordan Spieth today . I did. It looked like a tin cup moment. It is painful to watch. It looks like you and i on the golf course. The final round of the masters a fiveshot lead. But on 12, Jordan Spieth yikes, two shots into the water and loses the lead and finishes second. And Danny Willett comes back to win his first major, unbelievable finish. Put that green jacket if you are Jordan Spieth, on the other guy. Thats brutal.
