    The 76ers introduced Doug Collins as their newest head coach on Monday.

    Collins said during his introductory press conference that he hopes to make Philadelphia, who took him with the first overall pick in 1973, relevant again.

    "We're talking about being relevant again," Collins said.

    "I want the Sixers to be on people's tongues again. I want the Sixers to be the basketball team that people want to see. This city loves pro basketball. This is one of the signature franchises in the NBA."
