By now, most folks know the 76ers are playing solid basketball.
They had won two of three games and five of their last 13 heading into Sunday's matchup against Boston Celtics. That's a big improvement for a team that opened the season by losing 30 of its first 31.
But with the Sixers at 6-38 entering the game, Brett Brown tempered his enthusiasm.
"I bet I felt better this time last year, because I feel like we had done it a little bit longer than we are currently doing it," said the Sixers coach, whose team had eight wins at this point last season.
