After Action Report
The 76ers took care of the Rockets 105-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- 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.
