Brown led the Sixers to a 52-30 record this past season, good enough for third in the league just three games behind the Boston Celtics and fifth best in the NBA. This after the Sixers had the second worst record in the East last season as well as the fourth worst record in the NBA in the 2017-18 season.
The Sixers made quick work of the Miami Heat in the first round of the playoffs, beating them in five games. Unfortunately, they ran into the Brad Stevens wall against the Boston Celtics, falling in five games. Still, their season gave Sixers fans a lot to be proud of and excited for.
Brown had just one year left on his deal from his previous extension, and the Sixers front office decided to add another three years to his contract, giving him the security and peace of mind he needs, and very much deserves, to coach this young squad.
