After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers held off the Celtics 99-93. Ugly basketball, but the 76ers did just enough. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. 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.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
