Will Brett Brown be fired? Philadelphia 76ers fans slam his coaching during match against Indiana Pacers
After 20 weeks on hiatus, the 2020 NBA season has finally started. In the first basketball match in four months, the Indiana Pacers took no time to shake off the rust and handle the Philadelphia 76ers, beating them by 127-121 on Saturday night. Although the Sixers received promising performances by Tobias Harris and Joel Embiid, it wasn't just enough to beat the Pacers. Soon after the match's results were out, the Internet started slamming Philadelphia 76ers coach Brett Brown for his 'poor' coaching.
The hatred came out on social media and fans said Brett Brown wasn't the right choice for the coach and they want someone who is specialized in defense training. One of the users said, "Hey @sixers and most importantly Brett brown. Wouldn’t it be cool if we had someone who specialized in defense to guard someone who scored 53 points on 29 shots? Too bad we don’t have someone like that F*** outta philly clown a** b**ch."

Another angry Philadelphia 76ers fan said, "Didnt expect Brett Brown to make painfully bad decisions in the very first game of the year yet here we are, watching Neto play the entire fourth quarter as a lead evaporates."

Another fan slammed him saying, "With 10 mins left in the 4th quarter the Sixers were up by 10 and cruisin & again Brett Brown with his dumb ass rotations decides to take out his two hottest players in Embiid and Harris when they were rollin. Shit like this is the reason this team loses leads too often. Pathetic"
