After Action Report

The 76ers fended off the Celtics 126-120. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
