Ah, the peak (or maybe nadir?) of "Trust the Process". The horror show that was the Sixers from 2013-2016 reached its lowest point when they embarked on the longest losing streak in American Sports history.

The streak started off with a routine 21 point loss at the hands of the Clippers and continued on till the end of the season, as the Sixers finished with a 10 Game losing run and an 18-64 record. If you thought that was bad, worse was yet to come. Philly tied an NBA record by losing 18 straight to start the following season. The fact that they were this bad despite Jahlil Okafor having a solid start to his NBA career, showcased the utter lack of talent in the team. The streak finally ended after a 103-91 win over the equally abject Los Angeles Lakers.

It was definitely a sign of things to come that season, as the Sixers were 1-30 at one point, and ended up 10-72, with a .122 winning %, the 3rd worst in league history.
