Elton Brand Lays Goose Egg

According to the box score, Elton Brand grabbed zero boards on Saturday night. According to SI, that’s a career first for the 6er big. 713 games into a career, that’s not a first Brand was looking for. Since the 76ers signed Brand to a enormous contract two summers ago, EB’s been hurt and ineffective for much of the time. (Note: The blurb also says that it happened against the Wizards; in fact it happened versus the Raptors. So take it with a grain of salt.)
