​THE TEAM

Meet the Sixers Science Investigative Team

Randy Cohen

The Sixers Science Host teaches finance and entrepreneurship at Harvard Business School. His hero, Bill James, inspired him to pursue statistical analysis as a career, but as he was growing up, sports analytics was in it's infancy. He shifted focus away from sports, redirecting his analytical energy into researching financial markets.  He now puts the analytical tools he learned studying finance to use for Sixers Science.

Eric Sidewater

The Director of Marketing for BBALLBREAKDOWN has had the luck to forge connections with many people in the basketball world. He plans to act as a research liaison, connecting each member of the team's findings together. He will sprinkle in basketball anecdotes, knowledge about the CBA, and is an integral member of conducting data studies. Follow @SixersScience, where you can shoot over any questions you may have about the Sixers or the NBA in general.
