Burke-Colangelo Interview Highlights ESPN's "Philadelphia All Access"

ESPN on Friday rolled out "Philadelphia All Access" ahead of tonight's Thunder-76ers broadcast, offering special features and extra coverage on the team and the city. Segments airing throughout the day include Doris Burke's interview with 76ers President of Basketball Operations Bryan Colangelo, plus a story on local fans "trusting the process" (THE DAILY).

   
The Athletic's James Edwards III tweeted, "76ers week? Really ESPN? They’re 14-13." Philadelphia sports podcaster Michael Levin: "Instead of watching ESPN gloss over years of dismissive Process coverage at Sixers Day, I am watching 2014 Sixers lowlights to remember we were always right." SI's Richard Deitsch: "It’s nice and all but it’s also a reminder of the prominent baseball and football writers/broadcasters with deep Philadelphia ties that ESPN laid off." Meanwhile, ESPN's Stephen A. Smith, a longtime Philadelphia sports columnist, sat for a Q&A with the PHILLY VOICE.
