‘It’s time to go to work, Brett!’ - Jay Williams calls out the 76ers’ head coach | First Take

Man i stopped listening to Jay Williams when he said at the beginning of the year he picked Philly to beat Denver in the finals. Are you Serious???

If the coach can’t get the job done, he deserves to be fired

I couldn’t agree more! Brown has never brought the best out of this team. After a game in 2019 after Simmons hit a 3, Brown said Simmons would take at least 2-3 threes a game. We are still waiting. You don’t need to tell me anymore about the situation. Brown is the problem.

Thank you jay, Brett is def on the hot seat

I agree the 76ers are locked in with Simmons and Embiid pressure needs to be put on the coach 🤷🏻‍♂️

SAS face at 4:02 is CLASSIC 😂😂😂

It's been over for Bret Brown, he just hasn't accepted it yet. Maybe some other people as well.

espn not gonna stop until brett brown fired or kicked out of Philadelphia which ever comes first lol

Embiid and Simmons have alltime talent they need the right coach to unlock their potential together much like the Warriors and Bucks needed a new coach to get to the next level

sizers winning it all ezpz..simmons gonna splash 3s while embiid gonna stay full healthy

only took first take 4 years to realize brett is the problem.

Marcus, Spot on👌

Thank you Jay Will! Somebody with some guts to say it “Its time to go work Brett”!!!

I want Allen iverson to be the coach for the sixers

Why Stephen A look high though? 😂😂😂

Brett Brown doesn't balance the usage between Embiid and Simmons he favors Embiid way too much when Simmons is just as talented Simmons averaged 25 ppg when Embiid was out Brett needs to give both their equal usage he doesn't know what he has in Simmons

I love how jay Williams thinks his right about every basketball topic 💀💀

Swagu: "I don't understand what's lacking here". A FREAKIN' JUMPSHOT, THAT'S WHAT'S LACKING! Lol

Move this leauge to china
Espn too

The fact that they even care to play is just crazy ..

They’ve been talking about all the playoff teams I bet when they talk about the Raptors soon they’ll only talk about Kawhi literally the whole time and only talk about the Raptors for like 2 mins

Brett brown is a problem but their 2 “great” players aren’t that great if they aren’t self-motivated

I been said Brett Brown is not the answer for a few years now

Brett Brown should’ve been fired 2 years ago
The worst head coach, look at coaches roster- he’s god awful

ummmm swagu talking basketball?? i’ll pass smh espn

People expect Brett brown to shoot for Ben Simmons 😂

That Fat Man With The Glasses Made The Best Point I Ever Heard About 76ers & Ben Simmons Thats 1000% Accurate . & Imma 76Ers Fan. I LOVE HIS GAME BUT HE HAS TO INCREASE HIS SCORING USAGE AND SHOOTING OF THE BALL . IN ORDER 4 JOEL TO WORK DOWN LOW .

It ain’t easy being cheezy.

Despite the Sixers issues i still believe they're indeed the biggest issue for the Bucks in the East because of their defensive versatility having 2 all-stars that are 1st team level defenders like Embiid and Simmons is big deal then you have guys like Richardson and Horford off the bench,Thybulle,Robinson who are versatile defenders in their own right even Tobias isn't a bad defender hes improved this season on defense

Sixers have had all the talent the last 3 years to win a championship and they couldn't get it done because of Brown's coaching and Simmons won't shoot

I love Ben Simmons

If you think coaching does nor matter, imagine Pop having the same team.

Should have been fired immediately after the Celtics series. The obvious difference in coaching ability was way too evident.

They play well against top teams because they actually play though a Simmons and Embiid pick and roll/pop but for some reason against middle of the road teams they give Josh Richardson the ball. Horford needs to come off the bench, I don’t care if it is Korkmaz, Thybulle, Scott, Robinson III, Burks or Milton taking his spot. They should be better defensively, they have the best guard defender, Embiid can be a top tier interior defender, we have seen Horford do his thing on that end, Thybulle has amazing potential and Richardson is good as well. It all comes down to getting a defensive system and having everyone on the same page

Jay Williams talks a lot for somebody who play 4 games in the Nba you shouldn’t be able to be on tv with that resume

Last year might have been their best chance. They were dangerousssss.

76ers 2020 NBA Champions

Brett has been begging Simmons to take those threes. Ben, for whatever reason, doesn't like to take them.

Imagine you so bad jay wil be calling you out

If Gregg Pop was the Sixers coach they would've been in the Finals last year and be contenders to win it this yr. Coaching is everything sometimes and the Sixers don't have a good one. Been telling people in Philly this for the past three years.

Not watching any video whit Jay in it!

jay said all facts. Does anyone doubt that phil Jackson would win title with a team this talented? philly looking like they are gonna be a repeat of the thunder, except not even a finals berth.

Brown's gotta coach players that rest rather than play. Kareem Abdul jabbar played 20 years and only missed 80 games. Embiid has missed over 200 games in just 4 years. Dude is a waste

Amen Marcus. Joel is the best player on the team but Ben Simmons is the MOST IMPORTANT. Just like the Warriors, Steph is clearly their best player but Draymond is their most important. 90 Bulls had Jordan as their best player but Pippen was their most important. 2000 Lakers had Shaq as their best player but Kobe was the most important. The list goes on but in order for the Sixers (my Sixers) to win, Ben has to play aggressive and want to dominate. And Jay was also right, Brett needs to figure $@!& out or bounce.

Time for Brett Brown to go!!! Period and POINT BLANK!!

If Simmons can't shoot, or lacks the confidence to shoot well consistently, why tf would you want him to shoot? In this situation he would in all likelihood be a terrible outside shooter, which would lead to him being even more criticized. Westbrook can't shoot a three to save his life, and people praise him because he has finally realized it and stopped taking them. Can't you appreciate what Simmons does like you do for Westbrook?

these espn analysts need to take their own advice and do a better job. When are we going to start keeping track of all the incorrect predictions these idiots make on a daily basis

Jay will always think he’s right

Ben Simmons is the main problem lol his lack of shooting hurts their offense so much

You’re tired of going on about two grown men not doing their jobs and not fixing their games so you wanna blame the coach now instead?

Stephen A and J Wil got hurt by Brett Brown or somethin??

Thank you Jay Will ,Brent is not a Championship caliber coach .Cute your loses move on a coach is needed !!!!!

I think if you're picking a player most important to this restart its Embiid he has to dominate these playoffs Simmons just has to average 16-18 ppg 8 apg 8 rpg Embiid is the 2nd best player in the East for the Sixers to win the East even with sht Brett Brown Embiid has to be last years 28 14 4 Embiid

This team is tone deaf to this man. He's not a high level coach or strategist. He's a glorified assistant. He's the process guide, the process is over. You now need a coach to take them to the next level to motivate, teach, and counsel this group. A coach with a winning pedigree. Someone they have to respect.
Brett Brown's losing percentage is worst than any player on his team. How is he going to teach them about winning when he's never done it himself...

Jay Williams don’t know what he talking about

How's that process coming along?

That's way left the NBA aka pork chop

Brett brown took the eventual champs to 7 games and it took a game winner to beat them..... So why is he on the hot seat again cause if that's the case alot of coaches have done worst.

Brett brown is a off brand Steve Kerr

Sixers Lakers Finals. Email me if you want to make wagers

Im Australian so this is a real question, why dose Jay saying ese sound like he has a quota per segment or is that how ese is used in conversation? Cause the way he talks sound so unnatural.

Did this dude literally say Lakers won a NBA TITLE without Magic shooting. Did he ever see game 6 without Kareem and Magic was a rookie. Or did he see the hook shot Magic made over 3 Celtics to clinch another NBA TITLE. And Magic shot 85% from the Freethrow line. Ben Simmons can't do none of that.

Is Ben really more special than JoJo? Nah.

It's Brett Browns job to put these 2 in the position they can be successful theres no reason a team with 2 generational talents should be underachieving this bad figure it our get out

OMG, they got a fire this guy at halftime. He has no discipline on this team. Joel and be played Reggie wants to play now where he needs to play. They turn the ball over like it's part of the play.

I believe the Sixers will finish 5 seed they will beat the Heat in the 1st round and go to the 2nd round and give the Bucks a tough 7 game series ultimately fail once again and Brett Brown will be fired after the Bucks go on to make the finals next season the Sixers will be different team under their new coach a true championship contender

Brett Brown has quit on this team over and over again. He has a track record of letting the 76ers flounder in high pressure game situations without calling timeouts, subs etc. A trait that he inherited from Coach Pop in San Antonio. Only difference is SAS had high IQ veterans when Brett Brown was assistant coach there. Time to go, Brett. Face it. You're just not that into them.

I feel like people praise Ben Simmons a little too much he still has a lot to work on he’s not a great facilitator if you ask me

Philly is so simple... Surrounded Simmons and embid with shooters. Instead of signing horford, you get Seth Curry and keep Reddick. They were at their best with bellinelli and with ersan... Just get shooters

Idk if j Williams qualifies as a sports analist. Him and Ken Perk should strat cherry picking and leave this to SAS Max Shannon Skip Collin etc

Clippers are going to win it all. Laker Nation can now use their no Avery / Rondo excuses and dismiss this championship. But I know they won't until their team finally gets eliminated which they will.

not the COACH'S fault, it's BEN SIMMONS. this is his FIFTH year in the league, and he STILL can't SHOOT. that's on HIM, coaches can't MANAGE a player 24/7. listen, ANYTIME lebron even SNEEZED too loud, did we blame mike brown ? ty lue ? luke walton ? NEVER. don't give "the next lebron" the COACH EXCUSE if you didn't give the ACTUAL lebron that EXCUSE

Anybody who saw the 2014 Finals in its entirety knows LeBron kept his scoring up through garbage time. That's why he was able to go 28 PPG / 57% FG / 51% 3-PT. When guarded by Kawhi, LeBron could barely score and efficiently.

Brown's a good coach he showed it when butler was there. Embiid and Simmons should've and need to be traded. Brown's a high level player coach. Don't know if anybody can coach those two inconsistent clowns.

How to beat the Lakers? Keep the ball moving. Let LeBron overwork himself. It really isn't that difficult. The LeBron System is to have one guy beat you but he gets all the pretty stats because the ball is in his hands 20 seconds at a time.

If the Sixers don't win this year they should fire Brett and trade Embiid.

Stop making excuses for Simmons and Embiid. They’re both mentally as weak as they come. Simmons still can’t shoot the ball, not because he doesn’t have the ability to, but because he has a mental block going on. Embiid gets in his own way, more talk and antics than performance this season. They’ll be out in the first round this year and they’ll be over.

Jay being delusional again. Embiid should dominate every single game. He scores 0 points in a game. His mouth scores more than his game. Simmons couldn’t hit the side of Kendall Jenner’s house shooting a jump shot. Fix that then the 76ers are legit title contenders.

ESPN is traaaash lol

As a sixers fan I can easily say Brett brown is the worst coach in the nba no debate. His schemes his lineups his game plans they way he coaches them his lack of toughness and accountability and consistently not getting the best out of his players. I can’t think of one thing this dude does right Brett brown should have been fired a long time ago and the sixers should be at least top 3 in the East right now like seriously can we all just agree that this guy sucks like what else do I have to say.

Fire Brett dookie Brown

TRADE EMBIID. The 76ers will never win a championship with this trash roster. Al Horford's contract is terrible

Second

30th comment 🔫💣🧨

First

Why would anyone listen to Marcus Spears talking basketball? I’d rather listen to Ryan Hollins, and ya know that’s bad

He can’t coach
