Oh yea. I meant the moment may feel brutal, but the nature of the news cycle is that it will chew it up spit out and find something new to feed on. Hinkie churned out a pleasantly psychotic manifesto by all accounts that had it's days in the sun, and then the sun set on that. There's always something cooking. Think back to it all, the Process is going to be an elite 30 for 30. Bryan did some crazy shit that will tarnish his reputation, and we should poke and prod at it to satisfy ourselves and make any bit of peace we can with the outcome, recoup strategy, and celebrate what's left (which is a heck of a whole lot). This will be a footnote in history. The Sixers will keep ascending

If the hacker was somehow monitoring Colangelo's devices he/she would've known of the notification. Or the hacker could've been the one that contacted the Ringer and knew when they were going to confront the 76ers about it. I think it was him but I'm trying to put together how it could have been someone else. Brantt's 1% option.

If you have the ability to hack someone like this, why would you waste your time on something like this and not do something more profitable?

Maybe they were obsessed with Hinkie and this was worth it. This is my conspiracy defense of a conspiracy theory.

Honestly if he was hacked I am sure there would have been more terrible stuff that could have been leaked that would have been more damning to him.

Did Brett get an extension because BC knew this story was coming?

The news of his last extension came the day Jerry did.

The question is whether the extension was Collar trying to shift the narrative or the team's first step post-Colangelo. I'm betting the latter.

Damning that they've known about this for a week and offered zero support of or explanation by Collar today.

I am worried they are going to say it was his son and the information he heard about Jah and Fultz were either things he overheard or things he put together based off what his Dad had said. Boys will be boys defense.

Agreed
