Liberty Ballers: for Philadelphia 76ers fans

Wow! What a difference a week makes. Steve, Emily and Dan talk all about the gravity and implications of Daryl Morey being hired as Sixers President of Basketball Operations. They discuss the ripple effects throughout the organization and around the league, how else Morey may fill out his staff, and what ex-Morey players around the league he may target.

Other topics: Elton Brand staying on as General Manager, the Sixers' run of assistant coach hires, Sam Hinkie's podcast appearance, a spirited Most Likely game, The Bachelorette, and the possibility of the Sixers resurrecting the black Iverson-era unis. Enjoy!

On this episode of “No Particular Hurry” we get a former Liberty Baller! The Athletic’s superstar, Rich Hofmann to weigh in on the state of the Sixers, and discuss the new report that they’re offering a 5 year deal to former Rockets’ GM, and former colleague of Sam Hinkie (!?!), Daryl Morey!

Was Daryl the puppet master behind the hirings of Doc Rivers, Peter Dinwiddie, and Prosper Karangwa? Or was this a perfectly Sixers unorthodox hire the most important person last move?

Is Elton going to stay on? Might he be devastated with this hiring? Could it be awkward between him and Daryl once Daryl sees the cap sheet?

Jam packed with opinions from someone who knows the Sixers better than anyone else in the game.

Is this a tacit mea culpa from Josh and Blitz going back to Hinkie's roots?
