Is this the sixers next coach?

Travis Heath works for Hoopsworld. he does a weekly chat and honestly he looks like a bartender as far as I'm concerned, so I don't know if his sources have any reliability or who he knows or his history of reliability.

But he posted a comment on twitter in the past 24 hours that affects the sixers and I'm sure people will have an opinion about.

Who is this coach you say? Keep going gentle reader.

Little birdie currently employed by a NBA team just whispered in my ear that he expects Byron Scott to eventually be head coach of 76ers.

So, according to this unsubstantiated rumor, the sixers already know who their next coach is. And hey look, he has a connection to Ed Stefanski. (Now that could be why this source thinks B Scott will be the next coach, who knows).

He's a retread, he's a guy who has already burned out in two separate jobs, the sixers wouldn't be doing a real job search. I have no idea how Scott feels about defense, but I know Chris Paul misses him. But this is just a contrary move to how I think things should be done. If this pans out after Eie Joran is fired (come on it's inevitable and everyone knows it) that Scott is the sixers 'pre-picked' head coach, i'll be annoyed AND it'll probably mean stefanski keeps his job (Look Mr Snider, Byron is who I really wanted, but he wasn't available, and we had to hire someone)

Something to discuss instead of god awful games and where Iguodala might be traded.
