After Action Report

The 76ers outlasted the Pistons 130-111. The 76ers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The 76ers couldn't shake the cold spell; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
