After Action Report

The 76ers edged the Heat 116-109. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; 76ers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
