Sixers coach mocked with charity-contest jab

Original: The Sixers coach looks like a guy who won a contest to coach the team for a charity night. His regular job is General Ma

Basketball fans are mocking the Philadelphia 76ers' head coach, joking that he looks less like an NBA coach and more like an ordinary guy who won a contest to run the team for a charity night — with the punchline claiming his real job is managing a Home Depot in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, alongside local community involvement. The quip is a sarcastic way of criticizing the team's performance under his leadership.

Why now: Frustration with the Sixers' performance is spilling into mockery of the head coach.
