After Action Report

The 76ers ran roughshod over the Celtics 129-105. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
