Enemies Of The Process 2019 Jun 10, 2019

Show notes

We’ve made a lot of enemies over the last six years, and most of them don’t even know they’re our enemies. In September of 2017, we did our first podcast ranking the Enemies Of The Process, and we decided it was time for an updated ranking. Andrew Unterberger joins us to figure out which Colangelo is worse, where David Silver ranks, whether Spike’s dad is in the top ten, and where everyone else falls in the top 20. We also talk about the Sixers hire of Ime Udoka as assistant coach.

Maybe Only Run Some Of It Back? Jun 06, 2019

Show notes

Spike is having second thoughts about running it back completely, so we discuss the possible problems with doing that. We also discuss the Sixers interviewing Avery Johnson to be an assistant coach, the team’s change atop their medical staff, and figure out which non-playoff starter they would trade a Sixers starter for if they had the chance. We also announced that the Final Lottery Party raised over $16,000 for the Providence Animal Center and Coded By Kids. Thank you!

One Year Colangelo Burnergate Anniversary May 30, 2019

Show notes

It’s been one year since the Ringer published the article about Bryan Colangelo’s burner Twitter accounts that would later get him fired, only to be replaced by Elton Brand, who he once signed and is on the shirt. We look back at Burnergate one year later, talk about its lasting effects, every crazy detail we can remember, rank the burner accounts, and go over Colagelo’s Sixers resume. We also go around the league with Ish Smith and discuss the Finals, the Timberwolves front office and the Rockets fire sale. Finally, we end the podcast with a replay of our podcast from one year ago tonight.

Derek Bodner on The State Of The Sixers and Embiid's All-NBA Case May 25, 2019

Joel Embiid did not make the first All_NBA team, and Kevin O’Connor made a play to get rebanned. We discuss those issues, and then Derek Bodner of The Athletic joined us to talk about this Sixers season, the team’s front office structure, whether the Sixers should bring back the same team, and what their options are if they don’t.

The Dawn Of A New Sixers Offseason May 20, 2019

Show notes

The 2018-19 Sixers are but a memory now, and the biggest offseason of our lives (every one of them is) has begun. We take a look at how the season ended, and how we thought each player performed along with what we want to see from them next season (if they’re definitely on the team) and what we think the prospects are for their return in 2019-20. We also recap the Lottery Party and talk to Andrew Unterberger about enjoying things outside of winning and his final thoughts on the Tobias Harris trade.

With the last Hinkie associated NBA Lottery Pick at stake, and the Sixers in the playoffs and contenders for the Eastern Conference, it was a perfect time to end the Lottery Party. Six years of ridiculous came to a close with a live podcast featuring The Sponslorette, the rebanning of Bill Simmons, a Spike poem called "Run It Back," and an interview with Process legend Chu Chu Maduabum. Thank you for the support over the last six years. New pod this weekend.

Show notes

It all came down to a Kawhi Leonard fadeaway in the corner with Joel Embiid all over him, and it hit the front rim, then again, then the back rim a couple of times, and went in. Spike and Mike discuss the final game of the 2019-20 season, the series, and what it means going forward for the players, the coaches, and us. We’ll see you at the Lottery Party Tuesday. We came from losing, this is when we need to be together.
