After Action Report

The 76ers rolled past the Hawks 120-96. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
