After Action Report
The 76ers edged the Celtics 102-93. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the 76ers. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
