After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers demolished the Kings 116-96. 76ers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
