After Action Report

The 76ers held off the Trail Blazers 106-100. The 76ers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
