After Action Report
The 76ers upended the Celtics 134-131 in overtime. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The 76ers are in a full-on tailspin; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
