Hello, friends. Welcome to the latest edition of the Dime Podcast, in which we try out very best to break down the single most ridiculous story in the NBA this season. As always, we invite you to subscribe to the podcast on your podcast listening platform of your choosing (Omny, iTunes, Google, Stitcher) and leave us a review.
Today, Martin and Robby are joined by our pal Michael Levin (@Michael_Levin), the perfect person to discuss the ongoing saga centered around Sixers GM Bryan Colangelo and five burner Twitter accounts. You can get a full rundown after the jump, but before that, make sure you give Mike a follow on Twitter, check out his podcast (Rights to Ricky Sanchez, which you can follow on Twitter here and listen to here), and stay in the loop regarding the second season of his TV show, Trial & Error, which airs July 19 on NBC. Oh, and check out the piece he wrote for us about The Process at the beginning of the postseason.
