After Action Report
In a track meet, the 76ers squeaked past the Hornets 108-104. The 76ers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · 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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
