After Action Report
The 76ers took care of the Cavaliers 121-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. 76ers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
