Analytics Series: Guest Jimmy McCormick on Sixers/Hinkie

Evolution Sports

Volume 7 - Dave Sanders (@Dsanders877) and Drew Ferraro (@DrewFerraro88) continue the Analytics Series with Jimmy McCormick (@_JimmyMcCormick) of ESPN to discuss the Philadelphia 76ers movement towards analytics under former General Manager Sam Hinkie. In a round table discussion, the guys discuss the lasting effects of "The Process" on the Sixers fan base, our favorite misconceptions of "The Process", what's Sam Hinkie's legacy is in Philadelphia, did it work and should others follow, what are the next steps with Jimmy Butler in town, when can the Sixers realistically content, and the real reasons why Hinkie isn't still running the Sixers. Looking more broadly at the NBA as a whole, what are the latest trends and what areas might progressive organizations try to exploit over the next few years? We really enjoyed this chat with Jimmy and hope to have Jimmy on again to talk Sixers down the road. Thanks for downloading!
