Brett Brown: 'Philadelphia 76ers must move on'

Brett Brown has said that the Philadelphia 76ers must move on after tying the NBA's record for most consecutive defeats with their 26th loss in a row.

The Sixers were beaten 120-98 by the Houston Rockets, leaving them without a win since January.

The coach told reporters: "We move on. We are on a different path. We see this whole thing through a far different lens.

"I don't want anyone feeling sorry for us or hanging our head, we are going through something and we will get through it together.

"I can tell you very, very sincerely that this is something that in a twisted way is enjoyable in regards to watching the young guys get better. Obviously at times it's hard going through it [but] I feel like we're heading in the right direction."

The Sixers face the Detroit Pistons on Sunday.
