After Action Report

The 76ers held off the Pacers 128-121. The 76ers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
