Improving the Sixers

I would:
Get a new vet Coach with a good track record who believes in greater lineup concentration or will accept a mandate to practice such.
No lineup used over 72 minutes and 619 total is just totally unacceptable, to me.
Trade George if you can. For multiple pieces.
Fix Embid or trade or medically retire.
Keep one of Maxey and Grimes. Look to sign n trade Grimes or trade Maxey for preferably several players including most importantly a starting forward.
Give McCain big minutes.
Tell Oubre you intend to trade him if he takes his contract option.
Do what it takes to retain Yabusele.
Let Lowry go.
Hope Drummond moves on his own but weigh whether to retain if he takes option.
Do not retain Hood-Scifino.
Dowtin, depends on other actions and price.
Retain Butler.
Do not retain Walker.
Gordon depends on other actions but probably would try to trade later if he picks up option.
Not wedded to Bona or Council or Edwards but probably retain unless something clearly better is available. Probably retain Reese.
Add to / improve front office staff involved with lineup management and drafting.
Draft strategy should probably be swing for fences over picking up bench parts, if you see such an option. Focus on forwards. Likely Murray Boyles if retain high pick and available. Toppin, Lendeborg and Kaufman-Renn as main alternatives. If all they have is the 2nd rounder it could be lots of guys depending who remains available but should still be a forward.
