After Action Report

The 76ers upended the Warriors 114-108. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. 76ers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. An upset for the books.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
