Jahlil Okafor off to good start despite Sixers' loss

BOSTON - After Wednesday morning's shootaround, 76ers coach Brett Brown went back to the team hotel and then made a long, familiar walk. Brown journeyed the 2.9 miles down Boylston Street, past Fenway Park and then up Commonwealth Avenue along the Charles River to T Anthony's, a pizza shop near his alma mater, Boston University. There he downed a large cheesesteak smothered in ketchup, just as he did so many times during his college days.

He enjoys the walk because he thinks "the whole way up and the whole way back. It's a long walk but it's very theraputic for me to go through BU and go up there, it's a good day.
