The Philadelphia 76ers suffered one of the worst losses in the history of the franchise as they were beaten by 48 points by the Boston Celtics.
After the game Sixers head coach Doc Rivers, who led Boston to a championship in 2008, pointed at the change to the way the Celtics run their offense.
“You watch Boston play, and you can literally see the improvement of their ball movement,” Rivers said, per Taylor Snow. “The old Boston is more isos. This Boston is driving and playing with each other. That’s what makes them so much tougher.”
Following the loss Philadelphia (34-23) dropped to the fifth place in the Eastern Conference, just above Boston (34-25).
