Philadelphia 76ers have an identity in head coach Brett Brown’s mind

With all the moves the Philadelphia 76ers made this offseason, there were going to be questions about how they are going to operate on both sides of the ball this upcoming year. Head coach Brett Brown recently unveiled what he thinks what type of identity the team will have this year.

“‘…We will end up playing smash mouth offense and bully ball defense…'”

Considering the size of the starting five entering this season, it’s not surprising that Brown has that type of play style in mind for the roster. Point guard Ben Simmons is 6-foot-10, shooting guard Josh Richardson is 6-foot-6, small forward Tobias Harris is 6-foot-9, power forward Al Horford is 6-foot-10 and center Joel Embiid is 7-foot.
