After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the 76ers 105-100. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke; 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. 76ers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
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.
