One of my all time favorite Philadelphia athletes got fired yesterday. Mo Cheeks is the now former coach of the Portland Trailblazers.
I hope he ends up in the Sixer organization at some point, maybe as an assistant coach and eventually taking over the head role someday.
I remember watching some sort of video of the Sixers championship in '83 and Mo steals the ball and goes in for a layup while the clock winds down and then they start playing Queen's We are the Champions.. Man we need to win one in this city, BAD.
