The 76ers interviewed Dallas Mavericks assistant Dwane Casey today.

Casey, a former head coach with the Minnesota Timberwolves, confirmed the meeting to the Daily News.

“It went well,” he said.

Casey would not say anything about the location or duration of the meeting.

Casey, who just completed his first season with the Mavs, has 2 years remaining on his contract.

Casey, 52, served as the T-Wolves coach from June 17, 2005, to Jan. 25, 2007, as a replacement for Kevin McHale; he finished with a record of 43-59. He coached for five seasons in Japan before beginning his NBA coaching career in 1994-95, joining the staff of the Seattle SuperSonics, staying 11 seasons.

I just saw that Stefanski interviewed Kurt Rambis yesterday. Maybe Mikey Miss was right that Stefanski wants a assistant that has never been a HC before but then again it is still early in the process.

A ton of interviews all in the same day – without face to face meeting – surface calls – maybe they’ll talk again – but there’s only been one or two ‘real’ interviews in my mind, the jordan interview and maybe the casey interview…if you don’t meet a man face to face it’s a preliminary interview

"Someone created the box score," Morey says, "and he should be shot."

Blocked shots — they look great, but unless you secure the ball afterward, you haven’t helped your team all that much.
