After Action Report
The 76ers squeaked past the Pacers 104-102. The 76ers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; 76ers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
