Brett Brown is a good coach.

Brad Stevens is a great coach.

Steven A disagrees. Saw him blame Brown for all three loses. Pretty much said it was him, not the players who lost these games.

Guess the Celtics had nothing to do with it.  ::)

Steven A is an idiot.

The Sixers lost because the Celtics are quicker than they are.

Rozier beat Redick to the ball.
Horford beat Embiid to the ball.
Exactly.  Stephen A got it in his head that the Sixers were going to steamroll us and can’t let it go so he’s blamin the coach.  I’m frankly not sure what brown has really done wrong.  His star can’t shoot a lick and it’s HIS fault he can’t get him in the game?  We’re wuicker, faster, and more athletic.  That’s why we’re winning.

He should have sat Simmons for McConnell since the second half of game 2 onward.

If we were getting 36 minutes of McConnell Brad would find a way to thoroughly abuse him.  Sink or swim with Simmons, he's your future.

Yeah, if the solution is to play McConnell over Simmons, I ask again, how is this brown’s fault.  McConnell is spunky as hell but it would be a beat if he played a full game.

I think Brett Brown is the reason why Simmons has had a season as good as he's had this year. I don't think many others would have made Simmons a PG and catered the team around his weaknesses and be so forgiving of Simmons' limitations.

So I do not understand when folks say a coaching change would help transform / improve Simmons' play next season.

If Stevens and Brown swapped teams i suspect it would be 3-0 the other way.  I'm not saying that to blame Brown as I do think he is a good coach but he isn't as good as Stevens and in a close series 1 out of bounds play can mean the differrnce.

I think Brown has done a great job with “the process.” He’s built a great foundation with his youth but they’re going to need a new coach if they want to win in the playoffs.

He’s steered the rebuild/tank ship well. He’s not going to outcoach anyone at this level.

It has to be hard to coach guys who were taught to tank, year after year.

This. After all that tanking, all of a sudden the Sixers are a great team?

Losing is in their DNA.

Thank you .....

Coaching is about always trying to achieve more.

Hinkie put the organization into reverse , to beat the sytem , but there are consequences for doing things WRONG or out of order.   Dratfing all those soecial young players with no veterns on th team the teach them or purpose .   Knowing we are here to lose , not win.  .....i would have not wanted to be drafted into such an oganization. 

Using up kids like garabage waiting for Simmons to come along .   They should have been trying to be the best team four years ago , got the coach into a winning mindset . 

The whole thing just sits a bad vib for sports in general .

Brown was used as a tanking coach , to sit on the side and shut up and take his medicine , it takes a cold ruthless none basketball mind like Hinkie to see it though .  Anybody with a true love for sports , this whole Hinike thing was a kick in he balls.  He is a low life and Im glade he is gone.  He ruined multiple careers , gave the fans four years of empty basketball and screwed a coach . 

Good job Philly owners.

This is exactly the reason I can't fathom why people are publicly embracing "The Process"...it was essentially a large scale effort to manipulate the NBA system for a decade while fielding the worst and cheapest team you possibly could create (and they didn't even execute it very well).  No one is saying it's not effective and no one is saying some teams aren't in such poor situations that it might be necessary.  But you don't brag about it.  You don't put it on t-shirts.  Lucky (King of the Hill reference) had a financial model that consisted of slipping on p--- at the Mega Lo Mart and suing them for millions.  Sure it works well...but most people have enough shame to not brag about it.  Not Sixers fans apparently....

Tanking in the NBA has been a long time problem...but we've crossed another line when entire organizations are embracing it like some noble, genius strategy and idiot ESPN announcers are orgasmically screaming "PROCESS THAT!" when one of the few fruits of said process dunks the ball.

The first time he's ever coached in the playoffs, he's in the second round and getting outcoached by the best coach in the NBA right now. Brett Brown is a good coach who isn't as good as Brad Stevens. Nothing wrong with that.

Let us not forget Steven A grew up hating the Celtics. He's emotionally invested in seeing Boston get dropped. It kills him to keep seeing this team overachieve. I don't know what I'm enjoying more the Celtics being up 3-0 or SAS and Skip Bayless being so emotionally invested in the 6ers and not being able to handle it.

Skip melted down on FB after each 6ers loss.
ok fine

Going forward, one has to wonder how they'll deal with JJ Redick who has been a large part (and the player this franchise leaned on this season) going forward. His cap hold eats up a lot of their cap space. One has to wonder if they player they go after in free-agency will be able to be as productive as Redick has been, a shooter which is exactly what Simmons needs around him. And if they'll be able to keep Redick with a pay cut.

the media just has to change the narrative because everyone said the 76er's would steamroll the celtics and make it to the NBA finals.

now that the Celtics are up 3-0 they have to change the narrative and say its all the coach. or theyll use inexperience as an excuse...even though on the other side Tatum is a rookie, Brown is a 2nd year player and Rozier is playing his first year as a starting point guard.

These 76ers remind me of the first year LeBron was in the Heat:  Immature.
