PHILADELPHIA (AP) – For much of the last decade, the Philadelphia 76ers’ pre-training camp coaches luncheon has seemed more like an annual Rotary Club event.
Much of the aging crowd is the same. It’s just the guest speaker that’s different.
Doug Collins wants to book another reservation, this one for 2011.
Collins is committed to slapping a dead bolt on Philadelphia’s revolving door that tosses out coaches just when they get settled on the bench. The former TNT announcer is the Sixers’ seventh – seventh! – coach since Larry Brown left in 2003. Collins hopes to bring stability and success to a franchise that has lost direction, attention and enthusiasm.
