After Action Report
In Philadelphia, the 76ers snuck past the Celtics 93-92. Ugly basketball, but the 76ers did just enough. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
