This news was delivered first by Adrian Wojnarowski, ESPN&#8217;s NBA insider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The Philadelphia 76ers fired coach Brett Brown, sources tell ESPN,&#8221; he wrote on his Twitter account, setting the social networks on fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Brown\u2019s dismissal is expected to be a precursor for more upheaval with the 76ers, whose senior leadership \u2013 including general manager Elton Brand &#8212; will begin exploring changes in the front office structure, sources said. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iQtX3EGO9t\">https:\/\/t.co\/iQtX3EGO9t<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wojespn\/status\/1298002221385289729?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 24, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nba\/news\/celtics-vs-76ers-score-takeaways-boston-completes-sweep-of-philadelphia-with-game-4-win\/live\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Apparently, a 0-4 loss in the first round<\/a> of the playoffs to the Boston Celtics, was the last straw for the management, which is already looking to make radical changes in its organization. According to several sources, all the persons tied with basketball operations might be removed pretty soon, including GM Elton Brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For now, there aren&#8217;t any indications who will be on the list for the departure. The same sources are suggesting that franchise leaders explore options for the massive restructuring of the roster which could include a trade involving Joel Embiid or Ben Simmons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Philly played without the latter one against the Celtics, which is why they encountered numerous problems on both sides of the court. Brad Steves cleverly used 76ers&#8217; problems exploiting Simmons&#8217; absence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Philly&#8217;s chances of reaching the second round weren&#8217;t that big, but nobody expected to see a sweep, especially with Embiid, Harris, and Horford healthy and ready for playing. Last year, this team had a seven-game thriller against the Raptors in the semis, ended with Kawhi&#8217;s magical corner shot, which sent Toronto into the next round. Before this season started, the goal was to go at least one step further and reach the conference finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Sixers didn&#8217;t meed the expectations, and they had massive oscillations in their game, which would eventually result in finishing sixth in the East. That was something devastating for the entire crew, and when adding that Simons couldn&#8217;t play, losing to Celtics was a logical outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tyronn-lue-and-jay-wright-possible-replacements\">Tyronn Lue and Jay Wright Possible Replacements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Brown spent seven years in Philly, where he came from San Antonio. Back in Texas, he was the assistant and the director of player development. He would win four NBA titles with the Spurs as an assistant to Gregg Popovich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The classiest of farewells to Philadelphia from Brett Brown: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MYDslwivRh\">pic.twitter.com\/MYDslwivRh<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheSteinLine\/status\/1298009980898095104?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 24, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first three years of his stint were humiliating with the 76ers posting 47 wins combined, in 2016 just 10.
