I saw the Colangelo story first, then heard about the Brown extension, then heard about Simmons dating Kendall Jenner. I think I did it wrong

Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Until there's more complete information... I'm not going to rush to judgement. This can very well be completely or partly a hoax.

Eric jr, the oldest account, was created in April 2016, the same month Colangelo was hired in Philadelphia. The user’s listed location is “South Philly,” home to the Wells Fargo Center. Eric jr’s bio describes its author as a “basketball lifer.” Its combination of tweets, retweets, and follows creates a Venn diagram that suggests one person behind the account.

“To me, there is no conceivable world where that is not Bryan Colangelo, himself,” the tipster told me. “Not his wife, not his son, not his dad.”

At one point, Eric jr followed 129 accounts, including members of the Sixers roster; members of the Sixers organization, ranging from CEO Scott O’Neil to sales associate Lexi Shipon to co-owner David B. Heller; and a swath of basketball-centric media, especially Sixers beat writers. (Eric jr has also followed the Ringer’s account and that of site founder Bill Simmons.)

Eric jr has also followed a number of accounts related to the University of Chicago men’s basketball team. Mattia Colangelo, Bryan’s son, enrolled at the school in 2016 and currently plays for the Maroons. Eric jr has followed four of Mattia Colangelo’s teammates. Eric jr and @Phila1234567 have also followed John-Paul Cavalluzzo, an educator in Vancouver and the former basketball, football, and track coach at Ontario’s Upper Canada College, the high school where Mattia Colangelo played until 2016. In a tweet from November 28, 2016, Cavalluzzo described Bryan Colangelo as “my mentor.” Colangelo, who was hired by the Raptors in 2006 and left the organization in 2013 after being stripped of his GM duties, lived in Ontario before taking the Sixers job.

All five accounts, at one point, followed a profile using the name Warren LeGarie, founder of Las Vegas Summer League and an agent who has represented Colangelo in the past.


Unless you think Detrick is just making all this up its pretty damning. It's either him or someone very close to him or someone trying to scam him. (Which I wouldn't pass our fanbase)

Honestly this makes me really happy. We're going to purge these carpetbaggers from the organization and expose them as children
