Myers, 76ers looking for collaborative approach from next GM

CAMDEN, N.J. -- In their next general manager, the Philadelphia 76ers are looking for someone who will take a collaborative approach and help them win a championship.

The 76ers fired Daryl Morey on Tuesday after six seasons in which he made the playoffs five times but never got past the second round. This season, Philadelphia was swept by the New York Knicks.

"This is a blue-blood organization," Bob Myers, who is overseeing the GM search, said Thursday at a news conference. "We're committed to winning."
