Would be shocked if they move on from either young star this early

No way, at least giving Doc a year with both of them to see what he can do.

The Philadelphia 76ers are in advanced talks on a deal to hire former Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey to oversee the franchise's basketball operations, sources tell ESPN.

A deal is expected to be finalized in the next few days, and Sixers general manager Elton Brand is expected to remain in his current position, sources said.

Yeah this is a good move. Apparently they'd been in talks for a while

Conversations with the Sixers and Daryl Morey started shortly after his departure from Houston, escalated in recent days and will culminate with Morey becoming the Sixers new President, sources tell ESPN. Doc Rivers and Morey have a strong relationship and history together.

Always been a fan of Morey obviously (he's always been known as one of the best GM's in the NBA), but I gained a lot of respect for him over the Hong Kong statements that he refused to backtrack on and stood his ground. The NBA also handled that well by refusing to fire him, even if it did cost them millions of dollars of China revenue.

I thought for sure he would get black balled, but here he is.
