After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers ran roughshod over the Mavericks 121-101. 76ers' offense had its way with the Mavericks. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
