Cheeks Fired?

According to Steven A. Smith, the Philadelphia Seventy Sixers have fired coach Maurice Cheeks.

The Sixers have struggled out of the gate to a 9-14 record. But still, this is a shocking move. It's still early in the season, but this is a sign of desperation if I've ever seen one. This season is blowing up in the Sixers face.

Earlier in the week I read that Flip Saunders, who coached in Minnesota and Detriot, has been linked to the job. There's no doubt the Sixers have talent, so maybe this can be turned around.

But I don't think this was the answer, assuming Smith is correct.
