Sixers hire Collins
The Philadelphia 76ers have hired TNT basketball analyst Doug Collins as their next head coach.
Collins has spent a lot of time working as a basketball analyst and has not coached in the NBA since 1998.
He spent time as the head coach of the Chicago Bulls in the late 80’s and with the Detroit Pistons in the mid 90’s.
Philadelphia fired head coach Eddie Jordan after just one season at the helm as the team fell well short of expectations.
There is some hope in Philadelphia and for Collins after the Sixers unexpectedly received the No. 2 overall pick in the 2010 NBA Draft.
