After Action Report
The 76ers fended off the Pistons 110-103. 76ers' scorers couldn't be contained. The 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke; fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
