After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers rolled past the Pacers 128-97. The 76ers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.

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 · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
