The Philadelphia 76ers were again poised to end their losing streak. And, as has happened lately, they were unable to close the deal. The Memphis Grizzlies used a late fourth-quarter rally to erase a Sixers lead and capture a 92-84 victory on Sunday, sending Philadelphia to its NBA-record 18th straight loss to start the season.

The loss matched the 0-18 opening by the 2009-10 New Jersey Nets, and marked the 28th consecutive defeat for the Sixers – the longest such streak ever in the four major United State sports.
