After Action Report
The 76ers shocked the Knicks 97-88. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The 76ers are in a full-on tailspin; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. An upset for the books.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
