After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers ran roughshod over the Grizzlies 123-89. The Grizzlies had no answer for the variance gods tonight. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
