After Action Report
In Philadelphia, the 76ers fended off the Heat 111-103. The 76ers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; the Heat are in a full-on tailspin. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
