When the new Philadelphia 76ers ownership took form, it stated an openness with fans. Sam Hinkie plans to be more open about his personnel decisions but understands the organization must find a common balance.

"I can't speak to what happened before I got here," Hinkie said, "but going forward I see coach Brown and I to be open about all the decisions we make - the trades and the acquisitions and how we see things unfolding and what parts we're excited about. I don't think we will ever be a team that talks about the very next thing we're going to do. That is giving an advantage to the other 29 competing teams.

"We have to find the right balance there for the organization and keeping the fans informed."

The 76ers have not revealed much since Hinkie took over, not even announcing who they worked out during the NBA draft process.
