After Action Report

The 76ers handled the Hawks 129-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
