After Action Report
In Philadelphia, the 76ers handled the Cavaliers 98-86. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the 76ers. The 76ers bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
