After Action Report
The 76ers demolished the Pistons 121-91. 76ers' scorers couldn't be contained. The 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
