CAMBRIDGE, Mass. –Brett Brown had a hard time sleeping Monday night.
It had a lot to do with the 76ers’ 117-101 loss to the Boston Celtics that night in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals that night at TD Garden.
“We’ve lost twice since whenever,” the coach said of the Sixers’ second loss in 22 games before Tuesday’s practice at Harvard’s Lavietes Pavilion. “So we’ve been on a pretty good unusual run.”
So only losing for the second time in as many games, is “your greatest joy or your worst misery,” Brown said.
