After Action Report

The 76ers demolished the Pacers 130-102. 76ers' offense had its way with the Pacers. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
