5) Are you on board with what Sam Hinkie is attempting to build in Philadelphia? He doesn’t want good, he wants great.

Dante Nelson: Yeah I’m confident that Hinkie knows what he’s doing. I just wish the results were more immediate. I mean, I wish the players picked up were playing in October. But yeah, I get what Hinkie is doing. I’ll live.

Spencer Layman: I’m fully on board, Embiid better just get and stay healthy. 

Curt Jenkins: I am on board but it’s something here in Philadelphia we are not used to this. We are not a patient group and we love immediate success. It really will take a real sense if patience to see if the system will work. Rome wasn’t built in a day. 

Ryan Calpin: I am reluctantly on board with what Sam Hinkie is doing. I say reluctantly because I wanted to see a winning team this next season. But I know it will all be worth it in the end, and by the end, I mean in about two or three years.
