09-10 Season in ReviewTotal failure - these could be the best words to describe 76ers 09-10 season. They finished tied with Memphis Grizzlies for the worst record in the league(9-20) and they were unlucky in draft lottery also - only 5th pick in first round of 2010 NBA draft. It wasn't surprise when 76ers GM Ed Stefanski annouced that Eddie Jordan is fired as the head coach of Philadelphia 76ers. But the fans sees a light at the end of the tunnel. Philadelphia can still select good player with their 5th pick and the team is full of young talent.
