In 2013, Samshinki left rocket management to become philadelphia general manager, when the 76ers had just participated in the Warcraft to the Lakers' four-way deal, and the 76ers sent Iguodala, Vucevic and the 2015 first-round pick back to Andrei Bynum, the result was that Bynum was reimbursed for a season without playing, and the contract expired in vain.
When Singh took over the mess, he shouted the famous slogan: "Believe in the process." According to the NBA's draft lottery rules at that time, the probability of the team with the bottom record winning the lottery was 25%, and the second-to-last and penultimate teams were 19.9% and 15.6%, respectively.
In order to get a talented player with a high pick, Singh's first operation was to send the only All-Star player on the team, Jum Holliday, to the Pelicans in exchange for two draft picks, one became Noel who was reimbursed for the rookie season, and the other became Saric, who landed in the NBA two years later.
After the deal was made, the 76ers only won 19 wins and 63 losses in the 2013-2014 season, and also played a wave of 26 consecutive losses in the season, drawing the probe with the league's penultimate record. Before the draft meeting, Embiid announced a stress fracture in his right foot, missing at least two seasons, but Singh still did not hesitate to choose the emperor --- Embiid, a high-risk investment that also brought high returns in the future.
In the 2014-2015 season, the 76ers continued to swing badly, but the chess game was a bad move, the Timberwolves won the first place with a record of 16 wins and 66 losses, and the 76ers ranked third from the bottom with 18 wins and 64 losses. In the 2015-2016 season, in order to make up for the regret of missing the first signing, the 76ers completely swooped down and started with a 0-18 loss. In this crazy losing environment, Okafor's mentality was also brought down, and he fought with fans who laughed at the 76ers and was heavily punished by the league.
The 76ers handed over a heinous 10-72 wins that season to get the title, selected Ben Simmons, Philadelphia won a total of 37 wins and 143 losses in three years, unlimited losses, lost a large number of fans, affected ticket revenue, and even endangered the image of the NBA, in 2016, Singki resigned as general manager under pressure from many sides. In order to prevent the 76ers from happening again, the NBA has changed the draft rules for draft picks, so that the three teams with the worst records have a 14% chance of winning the lottery.
During his three-year reign, Hinkey bought 22 draft picks and team building blocks for Philadelphia, and in Cinkey's 13-page departure statement, there is a passage that goes like this: "If you want to achieve your goals, you must separate the process and the result, and lucky success often ushers in applause, but it is even more valuable to insist on making mistakes for the right goal." ”
