Sixers likely to part ways with head coach Brett Brown after latest playoff disaster
One thing we know for sure is the Philadelphia 76ers are making major changes this offseason. And it will probably start in the coaching department.
According to reports, the Sixers are likely to part with head coach Brett Brown. The news comes days after they were swept in the first round by the Boston Celtics in the NBA playoffs. The team was projected by many experts to finish first in the Eastern Conference, and make an appearance in the NBA Finals. But a lack of on-court chemistry, questionable roster changes in the offseason, and internal strife lead to them being the most disappointing teams of the 2019/2020 campaign.
Brown, 59, had been coaching the Sixers since the beginning days of their rebuild prior to the 2013/2014 season. During his tenure, he led the franchise to three playoff appearances in seven seasons, and a combined 221-344 record in that span.
