76ers lose 25 straight

Philadelphia 76ers Lose 25 Straight

         Brett Brown and his young Philadelphia 76ers team have extended their losing streak after a loss to San Antonio. The loss did not come as a surprise to anyone, and just one more will tie the NBA’s record for longest losing streak. The 76ers have a chance to a set the losing-streak record not just for the NBA, but also for all four of the major professional sports- Baseball, Basketball, Football, and Hockey. It is quite possible that the 76ers could go the rest of the season without winning another game.
         While the 76ers have a very young team, no one expected them to have this little success. The only good thing about losing these games, is that they have a very high chance of gaining the number one lottery pick in the upcoming draft, which may or may not be a good thing for an already too-young team.

         “Obviously, it's a rough season for them,'' Tim Duncan, Center for San Antonio, said. ''It's a rebuilding season for them. Brown knows that, they know that. They have a lot of young guys. He's just trying to get the system in place that has them playing the way he wants them playing. It's a process. He knows that.”
