After Action Report

The 76ers rolled past the Kings 107-81. Ugly basketball, but the 76ers did just enough. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
