After Action Report
The 76ers blew the doors off the Knicks 137-116. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
