After Action Report

The 76ers demolished the Hornets 128-85. The Hornets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.

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.
  • Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
