re: NBA Trade Deadline about 24 hours away

Hinkie's plan is smart and he gave himself a ridiculous amount of job security. He has two more years to see if this works.

I don't really get this complaint that's coming from the media and people in other front offices. First of all, Hinkie has only been the 76ers for a year and a half, so this is a lot of preemptive bitching. I don't think Hinkie is going to get 6 years of just rolling over draft picks and no results.

Who are the GM's of the NBA who got fired after 2 or 3 years that didn't involve an ownership change? It seems like most of these guys last too long as it is, it's petty on their part to be so upset about it this early.
